    Audiophiles-and audio reviewers-were amazed by the sound of the original Blue Point high output moving coil phono cartridge.

    "Blue Point has to rank as one of the best, if not the best, values in all of the high-end audio," enthuses Corey Greenberg in Vol. 16, No. 4, April 1993.
    Now we're pleased to introduce the new, improved Blue Point. "The inner workings are the same, but we improved the body to create better energy transfer between the cartridge and the tonearm," reports Sumiko Vice President Stirling Trayle. "The new Blue Point is faster and more detailed than the old one. It's sonically much closer to the Blue Point Special."
    Blue Point is a high output cartridge which can be used with nearly any preamp or receiver phono stage. The Blue Point tracks superbly with almost any tonearm. Blue Point offers exceptional detail, dynamics, and wonderful bass. You'll love it!
    For standard mount tonearms only.
