Kuzma CAR-70
Flagship Moving Coil Phono Cartridge
The Kuzma CAR-70 is the pinnacle of Kuzma’s cartridge design — engineered for ultimate precision and musical expression.
Its core innovation is a one-piece diamond cantilever with an integrated diamond stylus tip, machined from a single crystal. This seamless structure eliminates glued joints, delivering superior rigidity, internal damping, and minimal resonance.
The diamond cantilever is encased in a solid sapphire tube, anchoring the coil plate in a rigid and stable assembly. This ensures ultra-low mechanical loss and preserves signal integrity with exceptional clarity.
With dramatically improved manufacturing tolerances, including significantly reduced stylus zenith error, the CAR-70 achieves remarkable tracking accuracy, channel balance, and imaging precision.
The result is a cartridge of extraordinary resolution, tonal purity, and structural refinement — Kuzma’s ultimate statement in analog playback.
