Pick It MC3

Moving Coil Cartridge

The Pick it MC3 is an all-purpose cartridge which delivers powerful and dynamic sound optimised for pop and rock, but also for big orchestral classics.

The Pick it MC3 uses a Pro-Ject specific "Hyper-Spherical" stylus to pick up the micro information of your vinyl records. The cantilever is cryogenically treated, which realigns the crystal structure and allows a smoother signal transmission. The cross coil is made of ARMCO pure iron with 6N linear crystal copper winding. It offers an output voltage of 0,4 mV and works best with a tracking force of 2 grams/mN.
