Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. SB Cartridge

e proudly present to you our new Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. ( SB ) MC Phono Cartridge. SB stands for Short Body.

Like the PurpleHeart N.S. ( Long Body ), our short body Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. has been machined out of solid Purpleheart wood, but has now the smaller size ( short body ), like the Kiseki Blue N.S.

The motor is based on the same parts we are using for the other current Kiseki N.S. models.

We have chosen for a Short Body to make it easier to install this cartridge in different tonearms.  

Our new Kiseki MC Phono Cartridge is available through official dealers of our Kiseki distributors. For an overview of our Kiseki distribution network you can click HERE.
