The Roksan Shiraz is a high-end moving coil phono cartridge designed for audiophile record playing, delivering outstanding musical involvement and detail. It features a Swiss-made Gyger II super fine line stylus profile that offers excellent tracking ability, stunning detail retrieval, and low surface noise. The cartridge body is crafted from solid aluminium alloy and incorporates a robust broadcast-standard generator uniquely fixed with three spikes for precise alignment and coupling without distortion-inducing adhesives. Excessive cantilever movements at certain frequencies are damped by capacitors mounted directly on the generator coil, preserving the minute signal accurately. Sonically, the Shiraz integrates frequency extremes with a clear, precise midrange, deep agile bass, and open extended treble, making it a flagship design in Roksan's cartridge lineup.
