The Charisma Audio Model P-1M is a high-performance moving coil (MC) phono cartridge designed for audiophiles seeking balanced dynamics, reliable tracking, and a rich, natural soundstage. Featuring a precision aluminium cantilever paired with a low-mass pure iron cross-coil structure, it offers fast transient delivery and low distortion across the audible frequency range.
Outfitted with a fine diamond stylus tip (r/R = 5/15 µm), the Model P-1M achieves strong channel separation (> 30 dB at 1 kHz) and tight channel balance within 1.0 dB. Engineered to match well with medium-mass tonearms, it operates efficiently at an optimal tracking force of 1.35 grams, ensuring smooth vinyl playback and prolonged record life.
KEY FEATURES
- Aluminium Cantilever: Durable and lightweight aluminium cantilever ensures accurate transmission of groove modulations with excellent thermal and mechanical stability.
- Precision Diamond Stylus: Outfitted with a fine-radius diamond tip (r/R = 5/15 µm) for consistent groove contact and low surface noise.
- Pure Iron Cross Coil: Low-mass coil configuration preserves signal integrity, delivering natural tonality and wide channel separation.
- Medium-Mass Tonearm Compatibility: Dynamic compliance rated at 15 µm/mN allows seamless integration with a wide variety of medium-mass tonearms.
