The Best in its class
Donatello MC is the best sounding cartridge of its category, thanks to solid machined duralumin body light enough to be handled by any tonearm.
With its sophisticated computer modelling design, the body weighs only 7 grams. The Donatello is perfectly dampened to help the cantilever achieve the best tracking capability. Its high-precision micro elliptical diamond stylus tip will let you enjoy even the smallest musical details.
TWO MODELS
The Donatello is available in two models: Gold with a low output level (of 0.5mV), and the Red with a high output level (of 1.8mV) to be easily driven by MM phono stages as well.
