Ruth's sister International Power Cord LYR0005
A dual moving-magnet phono cartridge with paratoroidal coils and a multilevel stylus for stereo vinyl playback
- High-output moving magnetic pickup eliminates need for booster
- Accurate magnetic head delivers pure sound across music genres
- Cartridge life four times longer than piezoelectric alternatives
- Toroidal coils improve generating efficiency for better performance
- Multi-level stylus shape reduces wear on both needle and records
Phonograph Stylus Needle
This replacement stylus uses a moving-magnet design that delivers high output without an external booster. It suits owners of dual-channel turntables who want a direct drop-in cartridge upgrade for stereo vinyl playback.
Moving-Magnet Cartridge Fit
The electromagnetic drive and dual-channel polarity match standard stereo tonearms, so no pre-amp gain stage is required. Its toroidal-coil construction keeps the signal path simple and frees up phono-input headroom on the amplifier.
Extended Tip Durability
The multi-level stylus profile reduces groove wear while maintaining tracking stability across rock, pop and jazz records. Rated at roughly four times the lifespan of typical piezoelectric cartridges, it holds consistent output during long listening sessions.

Questions about this item
Will the magnetic head wear out my records faster than other styli?
The multilevel stylus shape reduces record wear while lasting about four times longer than typical piezoelectric cartridges.
Does the cartridge need a separate pre-amplifier or booster to reach line level?
The moving-magnet design produces high output so no external booster is required.
What tonearm wiring does the dual-channel pickup expect for correct phasing?
Left and right channels must be wired so that lateral stylus motion produces in-phase voltages on both outputs.
