Terrifically Open, Wonderfully Resolved, and a Touch Romantic:
Gorgeous-Looking and Phenomenal-Sounding Koetsu Urushi Vermillion
Cartridge Excels at Instrumental Textures

Distinct from every other phono cartridge in the prized Urushi Series, the Koetsu Urushi Vermillion
utilizes a blend of silver and copper wires (in contrast to
silver-coated copper wiring) and less windings, resulting in a
low-output cartridge that excels at recreating faithful instrumental
textures and providing a romantic signature. Musically engaging and open
to a degree matched by very few cartridges, Urushi Vermillion boasts
enviable tonal richness, sensory-awakening resolution, and just the
right touch of warmth. It brings the details of acoustic, classical, and
jazz recordings to life in three-dimensional fashion, yet it doesn't
skip the grit present in amplified music. Continuing a proud Japanese
visual tradition, Urushi Vermillion also sports Koetsu's
majestic urushi lacquer finish – a sight that's as beautiful to behold
as the artful sound it makes. Six-nines copper (99.9999% pure), advanced
magnets, and a hand-carved rosewood body round out one of the most
popular cartridges in the entire Koetsu line. Once you experience the
almost-miraculous favors Urushi Vermillion does for your record collection, you'll understand why.

"Many cartridges can extract more detail, produce more
'shimmer,' and deliver speedier transients, but few in my experience, if
any, are capable of re-creating instrumental textures the way the
Vermillion does."
