A true sonic marvel, the Quintet Black encapsulates the essence of your records, with each note redefined in unerring detail and complexity setting a new benchmark for performance. The new MC Quintet Black S model is graced with Shibata stylus on the Sapphire cantilever.

The Quintet Black epitomizes technical excellence, boasting an output voltage of 0.3 mV at 1000Hz, 5cm\/sec and an impressive channel balance at 1 kHz of less than 1dB. The channel separation at 1 kHz and 15 kHz exceeds 23 dB and 15 dB respectively, presenting the user with an unerring audio clarity. The Quintet Black offers a frequency range of 20 - 25000 Hz, with a frequency response of 20-20000 Hz within +\/- 1.5 dB. Its tracking ability reaches a staggering 80 µm at 315Hz at the recommended tracking force of 2.3 g, ensuring unparalleled audio precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.theaudiotailor.com.au\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Ortofon-Quintet-Black-S-Cartridge-australia_700x700.jpg?v=1744271970\" alt=\"Ortofon - Quintet Black - Cartridge\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"features\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop-of-the-line Nude Shibata diamond\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-lwsa=\"eyJhdXRvbGluayI6dHJ1ZSwiYXV0b19pZCI6IjI2NjkwIn0=\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theaudiotailor.com.au\/collections\/styli-needles\" title=\"stylus\"\u003estylus\u003c\/a\u003e: Renowned as one of the finest styli, it offers unparalleled accuracy and durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSapphire Cantilever: Sapphire is one of the best cantilever options for providing excellent mechanical pulse transfer from the stylus to the coil system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuperior Output Voltage: With an output voltage of 0.3 mV at 1000Hz, 5cm\/sec, the Quintet Black S\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-lwsa=\"eyJhdXRvbGluayI6dHJ1ZSwiYXV0b19pZCI6Ijg3MDYifQ==\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theaudiotailor.com.au\/collections\/speaker-stands\" title=\"stands\"\u003estands\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eout in its category.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpressive Channel Balance: The channel balance at 1 kHz of less than 1dB and channel separation at 1kHz and 15kHz of 23 dB and 15 dB respectively ensure exquisite audio clarity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended Frequency range: The Quintet Black S offers a frequency range of 20 - 25,000 Hz, extending beyond the typical auditory spectrum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemarkable Tracking Ability: This\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-lwsa=\"eyJhdXRvbGluayI6dHJ1ZSwiYXV0b19pZCI6Ijg2OTkifQ==\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theaudiotailor.com.au\/collections\/cartridges\" title=\"cartridge\"\u003ecartridge\u003c\/a\u003e's tracking ability of 80 µm at 315Hz at the recommended tracking force of 2.3 g equals sonic precision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAucurum Coil Wire: Made from gold-plated copper, Aucurum coil wire ensures an enhanced signal transfer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABS\/Aluminium Body: This balance of materials ensures a robust yet lightweight design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBespoke Fitting \u0026amp;
