Description: For sale is a new old stock Grado Labs Silver 3 P-Mount Cartridge. This is a brand new in the box cartridge that has now been discontinued. This cartridge does come with a stylus and Free Shipping! "The Silver3 uses a four piece OTL cantilever with a Grado specific elliptical diamond stylus mounted on a brass bushing. A machined turned generator is used to achieve a lower distortion and greater transparency.Grado’s OTL, or optimized transmission line, technology provides an ideal transfer of signal from the surface of the LP to the generator of the system. This technology rejects unwanted resonances and lowers distortion preserving the fundamental and harmonic frequencies of the music. This also helps keep noise generated by the motor system in the cartridge to a minimum.Grado’s OTL stylus/cantilever design makes records sound quieter, improves the height, width, and depth of the soundstage, and present more detail than previously obtainable.The Silver3 is all hand-assembled by the Grado team in Brooklyn, with some builders having over 25 years of experience. With the recent development of the highly received Lineage Series of cartridges, they were able to have a trickle down of technology and bring a new technique to the Silver3.This updated series of cartridges offers excellent tonal balance, dynamics, and realism, for a most rewarding reproduction of vocals and instruments. Grado's coil winding techniques, using ultra high purity copper wire which were honed during the development of the Lineage Series, have let the electrical circuits achieve unison between the four coils in each phono cartridge. This allows for a precise balance between channels and accurate stereo imaging.As in all Grado phono cartridges the Silver3 is powered by a twin magnet system that optimizes the balance between stereo channels. All internal magnetic circuit parts are held to extremely high tolerances creating the desired stereo imaging. Grado’s patented Flux-Bridger design allows the Silver3 to have one of the lowest effective moving mass generating systems while creating an excellent balance throughout the full frequency range.The development of the Epoch in the Lineage Series gave Grado an in-depth experience with using an outer housing as a damping device. This led to the creation of a process which de-stresses the chassis and dissipates unwanted energy & resonant frequencies, allowing the desired signal to travel freely." - paragonsns.com SPECIFICATIONS:• Frequency Response: 10-60• Principal: MI• Channel Separation at 1KHz: 35• Input Load: 47K• Output at 1KHz 5CM/sec.: 5mV• Recommended Tracking Force: 1.5• Stylus Type: E• Inductance: 45mH• Resistance: 475• Compliance CUs: 20• Stylus Replacement: U• Mounting: S/P• Weight: 5.5 Decibel Audio is a retail store and custom installation business in the Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago.
