TriangleART Apollo - FLAGSHIP Cartridge Re-tipped

This cartridge was a demo from an authorized dealer. It had about 550 hours. Unfortunately, it was damaged when I was installing it and the tip had to be replaced. Work was done by Andy at Needle Clinic in LA who was recommended by the dealer. I used it for a few hours  to ensure that it worked other than that, it is like new.    

TriangleART makes the Zeus and Apollo cartridges, but the Apollo is the ultimate reference in the TriangleART line.  Exquisitely crafted with onyx stone, the Apollo MC Cartridge uses the best parts in the world. Each component in this cartridge 

is fine-tuned and tweaked to deliver a performance worthy of bearing the 

TriangleART logo. Some propriety design changes have been made to yield a much improved sound quality.  

There is an excellent review in monoandstereo 



"As with the Zeus cartridge, the goal is to combine speed and 

details without sacrificing musicality. This philosophy in 

the Apollo has gone far beyond to incorporate even more 

details, more transparency, more finesse, more air, and more musicality. 





With Apollo, music is crystal clear, without fogginess, without 

haziness. Each note is sharp, crisp, and clean, as well as full of body 

and authority. Louis Armstrong’s raspy voice can be fully appreciated, 

and distinguishing the cedar from rosewood from spruce in the bodies of 

acoustic guitars can be done with ease."
