The HYPERION (patent applied for) is the cartridge of choice for the most esteemed audio equipment manufacturers. When they exhibit their gear at Hi-Fi shows, they want their turntable, amplifier or speaker systems to sound the very best that they can!
Peter Ledermann's radical design utilizes an actual "cactus spine" for the cantilever. The naturally tapered shape, stacked columnar fibers and desiccated resin damping fit the exact parameters of the perfect cantilever: Low mass, extreme rigidity, internal damping, and tremendous strength.
Each Hyperion is hand crafted by Peter Ledermann - Made in the USA.
The Hyperion offers a neutral and precise presentation. It reproduces music as intended, with a realism that other cartridges cannot approach. The sound is characterized by: - No accentuation of any frequency range - No coloration - No loss of information, attack, or dynamics - Effortless music retrieval from the grooves - Massive three-dimensional soundstage
Rebuild Price: $850 ~ 11% of MSRP, allowing you to effectively get a NEW Hyperion each time you wear it out or accidentally break it.
