The Gold Note Tuscany is the kind of cartridge that makes you reconsider everything you thought you knew about what's locked inside a vinyl groove. Built entirely by hand in Florence and fitted with an Adamant-Namiki stylus on a boron cantilever, it traces with a precision that feels almost surgical — yet nothing about the sound is clinical. Bass lines arrive with physical weight; micro-dynamics bloom without being artificially sweetened; the noise floor drops low enough that you hear the breath before the note. The Gold, wound with pure silver coils, delivers a tonal purity that rewards the right phono stage — almost unnervingly transparent. The Red, wound in copper, is marginally warmer and more forgiving of the phono chain without conceding much resolving power. Either way, what you get is Italian analogue craft at its most committed — a cartridge that earns quiet time.

- Liner Notes
Beauty and technical perfection. Together, for the pleasure of listening.
The Italian high-quality exotic design of the Tuscany Series is made to satisfy the most demanding ears for an uncompromising musical pleasure. These phenomenal cartridges feature an extra-thin Micro Ridge diamond stylus-tip developed by Adamant-Namiki, the world's most famous Diamond stylus manufacturer. With its exclusive cut, it guarantees a deep vinyl groove contact like no others. Its thin and long gold-plated pin connectors enable an ideal contact with the arm cinch to avoid energy dispersion and improve grounding for a surprisingly silent background that reveals at its very best every single musical detail.
Paired with the B-7 Ceramic tonearm and Mediterraneo turntable, it represents the unique true High-End analogue set-up exclusively handmade in Italy. The Tuscany cartridges are available in two models, Gold and Red, which feature precious pure silver and copper coils.
