Dytnavector - DV-XX2 MkII - Moving Coil Cartridge

Introducing the magic of impeccable vinyl sound reproduction that has catapulted audio technology: the Dytnavector - DV-XX2 MkII - Moving Coil Cartridge. With its key features intricately woven together to create an auricularly exquisite masterpiece, this superior product is your portal to the undiluted, pure essence of resonant sound.

The renowned DV XX-1 was the pioneer of the “magnetic flux damper” and “softened magnetism” processes - patented innovations that counteract the performance degrading magnetic fluctuations commonly found in moving coil cartridges. Now, the DV XX-2 MkII has taken this game-changing technology a leap further by adroitly integrating the Alinco-5 magnet and a rigid construction akin to that of Te Kaitora Rua. Embracing an Alnico magnet means benefiting from its exceptional high magnetic flux density and low coercive force; put simply, this means there's less magnetic resistance than with other magnet types, such as rare earth and ferrite. The result? An extraordinarily stable output voltage from the XX-2 MkII. Its additional superior attributes are the low magnetic and electrical resistance, which contribute to a marked improvement in sound quality.

Packed with specifications designed to ensure faultless performance, it is a veritable treasure for diehard music aficionados. Impeccable frequency response, precise channel separation, optimal tracking force, and advanced cantilever and stylus specifications all coalesce to churn out the utterly mesmerizing performance that the Dytnavector - DV-XX2 MkII - Moving Coil Cartridge is known for. Welcome to an unparalleled aural experience!

Features:

  1. Advanced Magnetic Flux Damper Technology: The Dytnavector - DV-XX2 MkII carries forward the legacy of the DV XX-1, featuring its patented magnetic flux damper technology that neutralizes negative magnetic fluctuations that could otherwise impair the cartridge's performance.

  2. Alinco-5 Magnet: Boasting of an Alinco-5 magnet, the DV-XX2 MkII boasts exceptional stability due to higher magnetic flux density, lower resistance, and clearly improved output voltage.

  3. Rigid Construction: Taking cues from Te Kaitora Rua, the cartridge incorporates a rigid structure that offers superior durability and optimal performance.

  4. Precision Alignment: The cartridge features a geometric configuration that provides optimal tracking force, ensuring precise channel separation and exquisite audio reproduction.

  5. Advanced Cantilever and Stylus Specifications: The 6mm length and 0.3mm dia. solid boron cantilever, coupled with a 0.14 x 0.08 mm Line contact PF stylus, contribute towards creating an accurate sound experience.

Benefits:

  1. Improved Sound Quality: Combining magnetic flux damper technology and an Alnico-5 magnet results in lower magnetic and electrical resistance which translates to significant improvements in sound quality.

  2. Stability in Output Voltage: The utilization of an Alnico magnet ensures an exceptionally stable output voltage for unrivaled performance.

  3. Perfect Channel Separation & Balance: The precise setup ensures an ideal channel balance and separation, resulting in a lifelike replication of the original audio.

  4. Wide Frequency Response: With a frequency response of 20 – 20,000Hz ± 1dB, users can enjoy a comprehensive range of audio frequencies, from the deepest bass to the highest treble tones.

  5. Superior Physical Construction: Sturdy build ensures a long-lasting product that maintains optimal performance over time.

This high-performing, low output moving coil cartridge is indeed a gift for discerning audiophiles. The Dytnavector - DV-XX2 MkII - Moving Coil Cartridge promises an unmatched sonic journey, immersing you completely into the enchanting world of music. Embrace the joy of true sound reproduction! Experience the difference with Dytnavector!

The Black Pearl Power Cable is a pretty substantial piece of kit, superbly constructed - it beats the usual black kettle lead hands down on looks and construction. It is however, fairly stiff so you need to allow it to hang in graceful arcs - no sharp bends. Being heavy it also needs a little support so it doesn’t drag on sockets at either end of the cable. Has it made a difference in the sound? Well, I have made so many changes all at once that I cannot definitively say if it has or not, but I am pretty sure that those electrons are having a whale of a time running along the conductors in the cable, and this hobby is all about joy!

The Cinema 30 is the direct replacement for the SR8015, but it is chalk n cheese in terms of sound & build quality! The 120fps issue switching between the PS5 & XBox Series X is gone via the VS3003 8K switcher to the one 8K HDMI input - all HDMI inputs are 8K@ 60kHz or 4K 120kHz/fps! I bit the bullet and shelled out for the Bass Management & Control add-ons to DIRAC product @ $AUD951.54 and the results are astounding compared to the Audyssey room correction of the SR-8015. Currently using a 7.2.4 setup as it's not possible to do 7.4.6 yet. The Cinema 30 is a GREAT looking and sounding piece of hardware, handles DSD128 multichannel tracks via HDMI from the Reavon UBR-X200 effortlessly & DSD64 multichannel from the Eversolo DMP-A6 Masters edition also via HDMI. I wasn't expecting DSD128 to work but VERY happy that it does. I do miss the analogue multi-channel input that the SR-8015 & my older Yamaha units have, so that the DAC on the Reavon can do the conversion & output in analog. I am unable to compare via a shootout between the two units to determine if there are any audible differences to me. Well worth the cost of the upgrade❣️❣️ Many thanks to Vaughan for his quality, no-nonsense expert advice, throughout the long fault analysis & attempts to rectify of the 8015 by the authorized repairer and organizing the replacement unit. I purchased the SR-8015 elsewhere before I knew about the team @ The Audio Tailor & have never looked back.

The sound stage is open with lots of space around each instrument and the stereo imaging is great. Another thing I really like is the ease with which I can stream music (which my previous amp couldn’t do). I don’t even need to turn on the amp. I simply select the H120 in my streaming channel and hit play. It wakes the H120 and starts playing. Here too, the sound is excellent. I’m very happy with this purchase and the people at Audio Tailor have been great to deal with.

It is possible to damp the legs, but this involves considerable extra expense in buying effective damping material. The top and bottom plates also have a ring, but that is more easily and cheaply damped, with a little d.i.y. effort. Atacama really need to go back to the drawing board for this one. I will eventually get around to damping the legs, but until then, the stands are an expensive shelving system.
