Grado Epoch3 Lineage Series Low (1mV) Output Phono Cartridge

The Grado family is proud to announce a major step forward in phono cartridge design with the Grado Epoch3, the flagship cartridge of the all-new Lineage Series. For the first time sapphire, gold, diamond, and cocobolo wood join forces to produce the finest hand-built cartridge ever.

The Epoch3 Cartridge sees final assembly by John Grado himself on his workbench in Brooklyn. It offers exceptional reproduction of vocals and instruments, with superlative tonal balance, dynamics, imaging, and realism. Grado’s coil winding techniques, which have been honed throughout the decades, have achieved exact unison between the four coils in each phono cartridge. This allows for a precise balance between channels and accurate stereo imaging. Each Grado is wound with the finest properly sized and annealed 24-karat solid gold wire, which is the ultimate conductor for the transmission of the music from your record.
