LYRA DORIAN MONO (Currently shipping standard "mono" model)
Our entry level monaural Moving Coil cartridge, Dorian Mono is a unique, advanced Lyra design identical in construction and sharing many features with the stereo version. It is entirely hand made, and comes equipped with a custom boron cantilever and Namiki MicroRidge stylus.
True monaural operation derives from the use of a square permeable core which is oriented parallel to the record surface, while the coils are wound to generate a signal only when there is horizontal movement of the stylus and cantilever. The Dorian Mono has been designed with two totally separate monaural coils, which help to avoid ground loops and hum problems.
Of course only a single channel needs to be connected to a single amp/speaker system for true monaural reproduction!
