A Low Mass Moving Magnetic Cone, Pickup Cartridge with Elliptical Stylus

Notwithstanding the number of high quality phonograph pickups now on the market, certain factors frequently bring about the introduction of still newer, and usually better types. Among these factors are availability of new or improved materials, better techniques of manufacture, new design concepts, changing requirements of technical or commercial nature, and so on.
