Benz Micro Glider S Moving Coil
The
Glider makes beautiful music! Open, rich and lively in a way that many
cartridges wish they were, the Glider delivers a sumptuously musical
experience.
The S Class models of the
Glider now incorporate the Benz Dynascan with Gyger S stylus coupled to
improved generators using new coil windings and refined pole
pieces/damper designs. Albert Lukaschek began researching increased
performance and uniformity of his crosscoil designs while developing the
Benz Ebony models.
Experimenting with the length of the solid
Boron cantilever revealed how the elasticity of this very stiff material
contributed to compliance and trackability. Development of a grooved
rear pole piece for countersinking the o-ring damper (first introduced
on the Benz Ruby square plate cartridges) was then adapted to the cross
coil designs, given their lower contact area and damping
characteristics. The lower mass coils and matched cantilevers of the new
S Class retain their real world output levels and with their improved
styli, offer higher performance. Music lovers are getting the best
performance/value ratio in phono cartridges, regardless of output level.
