JICO CLIPPER MOVING MAGNET CARTRIDGE LAUNCHED

The new JICO Clipper Moving Magnet Cartridge, from the Japanese cartridge and vinyl accessory brand, claims to be the world’s first dual-fitting model.

JICO CLIPPER MOVING MAGNET CARTRIDGE

The JICO Clipper Moving Magnet Cartridge’s unique design balances the centre of gravity between the left and right channels, while its Tapered-S Cantilever is designed for accurate vibration reproduction.

STYLUS COMPATIBILITY

The JICO Clipper Moving Magnet Cartridge is compatible with JICO’s N44-7 and N44G styli, in addition to its exclusive CRCP/MK1 stylus. The cartridge is also compatible with SHURE 44-series replacement needles, including JICO’s ND (Nude Diamond), SD (Synthetic Diamond), MORITA (Wood Cantilever), and SAS models, as well as vintage SHURE styli.

TAPERED S-CANTILEVER

The Clipper features the world’s first Tapered S-Cantilever, an innovation inspired by designs from AUDIO EMPIRE and SWING record needles. The tapered structure reduces mass at the tip, allowing for more accurate vibration transmission. After extensive testing, JICO selected a solid natural diamond (ND) conical tip.

TIMELESS YET MODERN DESIGN

Balancing aesthetics and functionality, the Clipper features a glossy black UVCRM resin body, carefully crafted for long-term durability and performance. The ApexGlide Headshell finger lift, designed with sleek aerodynamics reminiscent of an airliner’s tail fin, adds a touch of style while ensuring ease of use.
