Award-Winning Cartridge Design
Iconic Design
Building upon a legacy that began with the original Concorde, the Concorde Music series carries a rich history as one of the most renowned cartridges in audio. Originally developed to simplify mounting on tonearms without screws or wires, the Concorde's unique design won the Danish Industrial Design Award and has become an icon in the audio industry.
Stylus

The Shibata stylus, with its narrow and elongated contact surface, closely resembles the original cutting stylus. This ensures highly accurate reproduction, low distortion, and an extended frequency range. The extremely stiff and lightweight Boron cantilever enhances transparency, speed, and responsiveness.
