Acoustical Systems Palladian Phono Cartridge
The Palladian features a hand hammered Timet 1100 Titanium body of unequalled strength and with an unparalleled ability to transfer energy.
In the Palladian we find a strong heart with more energy (coil windings), a body more agile with less inertia (reduced moving mass), featuring further a very special, subtle mix of small measures taken to fine tune each and every parameter of performance allowing for a sonic explosion beyond our expectations and hopes.

The hand hammered body, the quick silverish shine like a dragon’s skin - The palladian Timet 1100 body expresses visually its agility, vital dynamic and live-
likeness.
The palladian brings that spark of live back into the sonic presentation of each
and every recording. That spark of live – independent whether large or small – that was there when the performance was once captured.
The palladian is fast, live-like dynamic and breathtaking direct in its color, immediateness and agility. An incredible agile, dynamic dancer – a reminiscent of Misha Baryshnikov in his prime. It is subtle, tender and sublime – yet frightening dynamic, with a sonic punch both wall-shaking and stunning physical in its impact.
The palladian is.. live ….. in the very best sense and in the true spirit of the music. And with the palladian the true spirit of the music is there. Our statement in phono cartridges ….. our best.
