A distinguished member of the elite of the most complete family of high-performance pickup cartridges on the world market, the van den Hul The White Beauty Special-X immediately stands out for the pristine white color of its polycarbonate body, which, in addition to its beauty unparalleled, it provides extraordinary immunity against resonances of mechanoacoustic origin. But it is inside where we must look for the secret of this sensational instrument for analyzing the grooves of vinyl records, built entirely by hand. Thus, in The White Beauty Special-X we find a shorter cantilever, a reinforced magnetic structure, a very special rubber suspension and a modified mobile coil support frame. The result is a substantial improvement in resolution and greater channel separation providing superior spatiality.
