It is built on a stainless-steel base treated with TiN (titanium nitride) for a golden finish, corrosion resistance, and hardness, topped by a duralumin body treated with DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) to control resonance and deliver a more direct, highly resolved presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the PP-5000 is a synthetic diamond cantilever, adopted here for the first time in a Phasemation cartridge to increase propagation speed and expand the amount of musical information. A natural diamond line-contact stylus with a precisely controlled mounting angle, an improved vibration system and damper, and carefully polished permendur yoke in the magnetic circuit are all aimed at better trackability, more uniform magnetic fields, and enhanced spatial expression and sound image localization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PP-5000 is a low-impedance moving-coil design with a 4 Ω internal impedance and an output of 0.3 mV or more at 1 kHz, 50 mm\/s, intended for use with an appropriate MC step-up transformer or head amplifier. With a compliance of 8.5 µm\/mN, a recommended tracking force of 1.7–2.0 g, and a specified playback frequency range of 10 Hz–30 kHz, it is designed for serious analog systems set up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e20th-Anniversary Flagship:\u003c\/strong\u003e Developed to commemorate Phasemation’s 20th anniversary, the PP-5000 is positioned as a new flagship MC cartridge and a reference point in the brand’s cartridge lineup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiamond Cantilever:\u003c\/strong\u003e A synthetic diamond cantilever is used for the first time in a Phasemation cartridge, chosen to enhance propagation speed and expand the amount of musical information retrieved from the groove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural Diamond Line-Contact Stylus:\u003c\/strong\u003e The stylus tip is a natural diamond with a line-contact profile (0.03 × 0.003 mm), with mounting angle precision tightened from ±5° to ±3° for more accurate tracing and improved tracking performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefined Vibration System:\u003c\/strong\u003e The vibration system, including the damper, is revised to work in harmony with the new cantilever, improving trackability and the cartridge’s ability to follow complex groove modulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolished Permendur Magnetic Circuit:\u003c\/strong\u003e The permendur yoke in the magnetic circuit receives an additional polishing process to make the magnetic field more uniform, improving the reproduction of low-level signals and spatial detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNext-Generation Body Structure:\u003c\/strong\u003e A machined stainless-steel base with TiN treatment and a machined duralumin body with DLC treatment combine to control unwanted vibrations, increase rigidity, and deliver a more direct, flagship-grade sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower Generation Method:\u003c\/b\u003e Moving coil type\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/b\u003e 4 Ω\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplicable Stylus Force:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.7–2.0 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Voltage (1 kHz, 50 mm\/s horizontal):\u003c\/b\u003e 0.3 mV or more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCompliance:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.5 µm\/mN \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlayback Frequency Range:\u003c\/b\u003e 10 Hz–30 kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeparation (1 kHz):\u003c\/b\u003e 30 dB or more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChannel Balance (1 kHz):\u003c\/b\u003e Within 1 dB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRecommended Operating Temperature:\u003c\/b\u003e 20°C–26°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStylus Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e Natural diamond (line contact \/ curvature 0.03 × 0.003 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCantilever:\u003c\/b\u003e Synthetic diamond (0.2 mm square)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMagnet:\u003c\/b\u003e Samarium-cobalt\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMagnetic Circuit Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Permendur\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Machined stainless steel (TiN treatment)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody:\u003c\/b\u003e Machined duralumin (DLC treatment)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 14.3 g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Phasemation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51836579446968,"sku":"PP-5000","price":15995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/PP-5000_2_rgb.png?v=1763668753","url":"https:\/\/upscaleaudio.pro\/products\/phasemation-pp-5000-moving-coil-cartridge","provider":"Upscale Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
