Description
Grado Green3 Phono Cartridge. The Green3 uses a three piece OTL cantilever that has a Grado specific diamond mounted on a brass bushing.
Optimized Transmission Line
Grado’s OTL, or optimized transmission line technology provides an ideal transfer of signal from the surface of the LP to the generator of the system. Consequently, this technology rejects unwanted resonances and lowers distortion preserving the fundamental and harmonic frequencies of the music. This also helps keep noise generated by the motor system in the cartridge to a minimum.
Stylus Design
Grado’s OTL stylus/cantilever design makes records sound quieter, improves the height, width, and depth of the soundstage. As a result, this presents more detail than previously obtainable.
Hand Crafted
The Green3 is hand assembled by Grado’s team in Brooklyn. Some of our builders have over 25 years of experience. This updated series of cartridges offers excellent tonal balance, dynamics, and realism. Accordingly, this offers a most rewarding reproduction of vocals and instruments. The coil winding techniques h use ultra high purity copper wire. This process was honed during the development of the Lineage Series. This allows the electrical circuits to achieve unison between the four coils in each phono cartridge. This allows for a precise balance between channels and accurate stereo imaging.
Magnet System
As in all Grado phono cartridges a twin magnet system powers the Green3 . that optimizes the balance between stereo channels. The desired stereo imaging happens because all internal magnetic circuit parts are held to extremely high tolerances. Grado’s patented Flux-Bridger design allows the Green3 to have one of the lowest effective moving mass generating systems while creating an excellent balance throughout the full frequency range.
