EAT Jo No8 Moving Coil Cartridge

A high-performance MC with nude Shibata stylus, boron cantilever, and a chestnut/aluminum body.

The No8 was developed following the success of the No5, to answer the question about E.A.T. could do with this format with no price constraints. 

The designers carefullly thought about how all the parts worked in perfect harmony: the stylus, the cantilever, the bearing, the suspension, the "motor", and the body shell.

To elevate the already-exceptional performance of the No5, E.A.T. made the No8 with a nude Shibata stylus on a boron cantilever, contained in a matte-finished wooden body made of solid chestnut. A perfect match for the new F-Note tonearm, the Jo N°8 moving-coil cartridge will extract more from the groove than previously imagined.
