The Vertere Mystic II delivers an uncompromising listening experience. Crafted to exacting standards, it combines innovative engineering with high-quality materials to set a new standard in moving coil cartridge performance.  At its core is a high-performance generator featuring a samarium-cobalt magnet and pure copper cross-coil winding.  Paired with a micro-elliptical diamond stylus mounted on a titanium shank and telescopic aluminium cantilever, Mystic II offers exceptional tracking, clarity and balance. It captures every nuance without sacrificing surface noise control or high-frequency detail.

Three dedicated contact points further enhance mechanical stability. A front-top alignment ridge simplifies setup, especially with Vertere tonearms.  With a wide frequency response from below 10Hz to over 40kHz and an output of 0.45mV, Mystic II delivers deep powerful bass, lifelike dynamics and extraordinary detail.  The Vertere Mystic II’s one-piece aluminium alloy body is precision-machined and mass-tuned to control vibration and resonance.  Vertere’s unique 4-point mounting system uses four precision ‘spike’ screws to isolate and rigidly connect the generator to the cartridge body, ensuring stable alignment and enhanced sonic performance.  Mounting is simple and secure with integrated threaded holes and Vertere-designed thumb screws, ensuring perfect coupling to the tonearm. Just sit back relax and enjoy the music.
