Description
The Sumiko Olympia Cartridge is a standout moving magnet (MM) phono cartridge from Sumiko’s “Gem Series,” offering a compelling blend of clarity, dynamics, and value. Designed to elevate the listening experience, it features a bonded 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical diamond stylus on an aluminum cantilever, meticulously crafted to extract impressive detail from your vinyl collection.
With a robust 4.0 mV output and a wide 12 Hz – 30 kHz frequency response, the Olympia delivers a lively, dynamic, and balanced sound. Its sonic signature is characterized by articulate bass, clear and engaging mids, and extended, smooth highs. Thanks to a resonance-optimized body with threaded inserts for easy mounting, it produces a notably cleaner soundstage with enhanced instrument separation. The Olympia also offers an excellent upgrade path, as its body is compatible with the higher-performance Moonstone stylus. Positioned as a versatile mid-range MM cartridge, it’s an ideal choice for audiophiles seeking a significant sonic upgrade without a substantial investment, delivering immersive and detailed vinyl playback.
Features
Designed for discerning, value-minded audiophiles, Rainier, Olympia & Moonstone supplement & complement their existing range of Oysters. They build upon, enhance & refine the sonic character that listeners worldwide have enjoyed for decades. New innovation in cartridge design addresses the problem of resonance — the things that need to happen around a generator to voice a cartridge with honesty. The housing thusly disperses & dissipates resonance, making way for effortless, transparent sonics that is enlivened with intimate nuance. The voicing is true to natural harmonics, space around voices & instruments as well as their attack & decay. Unique to these 3 Oysters (not to mention Amethyst), experience a diminutive backdrop that bolsters sonic images with a degree of aptitude reminiscent of moving coil designs.
Upgrade Path
Rainier, Olympia & Moonstone replacement styli are interchangeable. We encourage you to follow the upgrade path to experience the best of what this design has to offer!
