The Tigereye is one of Koetsu’s most visually arresting stone body cartridges — and its sound is every bit as captivating as its appearance. Machined from a hand-selected block of tigereye stone and polished to a mirror finish, the body provides natural resonance damping that no synthetic material can match. Platinum magnets and silver-sheathed copper coils work in concert to produce the ethereal, cohesive musicality Koetsu is legendary for — a sound that is simultaneously detailed and deeply musical, analytical and emotionally involving. For the serious analog listener who refuses to compromise, the Tigereye is a statement piece in every sense.
"The end result is harmonious and cohesive, and the music unfolds in a way that gives you more time to listen – more time to unravel the individual strands that form part of the whole." Hi-Fi+
