For over thirty-five years, SUMIKO has provided a comprehensive range of phono cartridges to music lovers seeking the finest musical experience at a variety of price points. In fact, the great market success of SUMIKO phono cartridges has hinged on their phenomenal cost-to-performance ratio.
The Palo Santos Presentation is no exception. New design requirements incorporating advances in material technology and construction techniques have resulted in a significantly improved product which delivers a highly refined and resolved, yet musically satisfying sound quality previously unavailable at or even near its price.
Improvements grace virtually every facet
of the product to differentiate it from its smaller sibling the Pearwood
Celebration II. Most significant is the new generator anchoring
system, which has substantially improved rigidity and reduced resonance
and background noise to previously unheard of levels. From the new
handcrafted Palo Santos (Brazilian Rosewood) body, which is shorter in
height to add vision when mounting and aligning this cartridge, to the
Long Grain Boron cantilever and new Line Contact stylus, which
significantly improves resolution, the Palo Santos Presentation truly
deserves the title as our flagship offering.
