Music Hall Spirit Cartridge

"Extracts Maximum Information from the Groove"

The Spirit is Music Hall's most affordable phono cartridge. But don't let the low price fool you. Like every audiophile product from Music Hall, Spirit provides a tremendous amount of performance, challenging its competition at a fraction of the cost.

The Spirit is a supremely musical moving magnet phono cartridge. Developed and built specially for Music Hall by Audio Technica, this little gem incorporates a low-mass cantilever and an elliptical stylus tip that gets down deep into the grooves (pun intended by Music Hall's Roy Hall), and it sets the music free.

Responds Quickly!

"The Music Hall Spirit cartridge extracts maximum information from the groove," reports Thom Moon, soundstageaccess.com, June 1, 2020. "It’s a variant of A-T’s AT95 series, possibly the most popular cartridges around these days. The low mass of the Spirit’s cantilever certainly helps transient performance, allowing it to respond more quickly to sharp, high-level sounds.

The Spirit is as easy to use as it is compatible, performing admirably with a wide range of tonearms and turntables. Built for longevity, it features a user-replaceable stylus. So even if your stylus eventually needs replacing, you never need give up the Spirit!
