Product Usage Instructions
- The stylus is very delicate and applying excessive force to the stylus, such as finger pressure, can result in damages. Handle the cartridge with the utmost care.
- A powerful magnet is used in the cartridge. Operating steel/magnetic tools or similar items near the cartridge will exert a force on the magnet and may result in damages to the stylus and the cartridge.
- Mount the cartridge on the tonearm head-shell using the supplied Allen Wrench and one set of the 2,5mm screws. Adjust it to the stylus position suggested for your turntable system.
- The output terminals are color coded for ease of use. Connect the terminals to the color matched head-shell lead of the tonearm.
- Applying heat to the output terminals of the cartridge will cause internal damage to the cartridge.

VASARI
The innovative and beautiful design of the Vasari benefits from 25 years of
experience in engineering High-End audio components. Designed with computer
modelling, the Vasari Series achieves the peak performance of the MM
technology.
The high-damping body, made of superior quality materials, and the ultra-rigid
cantilever in Aluminium make the Vasari a superb tracker, a characteristic
that allows our custom diamond stylus to extract all the information from the
vinyl groove so that your system can perfectly recreate the musical event in
all its details and complexity. The Vasari is available in three models:
Shibata, Gold and Red. The Vasari Shibata and Vasari Gold feature a duralumin
body while the Vasari Red features a special ultra-damped photopolymer resin
body that is 3D printed. The three models also differ in the cut of the
diamond tip: shibata on the Shibata model, elliptical on the Gold and conical
on the Red.
With each model delivering an output level of 4mV, they are the ideal
cartridges for our turntables thanks to their lightweight bodies.
Completing our range of cartridges, the Vasari Series is the best MM design we
have ever made, offering a new and engaging musical experience.
