Dynavector 20X Cartridge
Product Review:
For more than 30 years Dynavector have established an enviable reputation for producing affordable high quality moving coil cartridges. Notedly high output models that are designed to work with MM inputs negating the necessity for equipment change or the use of setup devices required for low output cartridges. The stunning performance of the Dynavector high output moving coil cartridges can be attributed to the exclusively Dynavector designed coil winding machine capable of utilizing extremely fine coil wire providing a high output to mass ratio

Stereophile Recommended Component April 2003
Well-engineered, thought MF, and it sounded really good-no serious sonic bunions, and it did a few things very well (Vol.23 No.11).

Hi-Fi World May 99 Delightfully musical sound makes the Dynavector a very strong contender in the budget MC stakes.

Dynavector are delighted to announce a new model in two versions. The Dynavector 20X-H and 20X-L.

The designs draw from Dynavector's top end XX-l. The 20's have a similar body shape to the XX-1 and share the same aluminium alloy body material. This makes a rigid platform for the cartridge motor and aids secure fitting to the arm.

We picked a 6mm hard aluminium pipe cantilever with a PE (perfect elliptical) nude diamond stylus for the 20's. This cantilever assembly is coupled to sets of coils in the 20X-H that give out a healthy 2.5 mV at a suitable impedance for most 'moving magnet inputs. And, in the 20X-L an output of 0.25 mV suited to most 'moving coil input stages.

Both versions have been made available to help users get the best result for their own circumstances. The high output model suits valve pre-amps, basic amplifiers that only offer MM or amplifiers with less accomplished MC sections. Using a high output can also be of benefit if you live in an area with high radio frequency interference. The low output version scores where a system is set up with a good quality MC amp input.

The 20X also features two unique Dynavector benefits flux damping and softened magnetism.These two features combine to eliminate the distortions caused by excess magnetic flux produced by the high energy magnets used in modern moving coils.

A compliance of 12 cu means the 20's will suit a wide variety of popular arms such as : Linn, Naim, SME, Well Tempered etc. Standard counterweights should be fine but a few manufacturers offer options.

Since Dynavector's MC cartridges first appeared almost 20 years ago, they have enjoyed world-wide acclaim due to their combination of superb design and advanced production techniques.
