One could hope for this technology to be adopted, at least in part, by other phono cartridge manufacturers to create competetion and thus lower prices of this optical system. However, as beryllium is toxic and a difficult metal to utilize I think they will remain expensive. Still, if I'm ever looking to buy a phono cartridge in that price range I would consider a DS system.

- Speaker driver companies are still making beryllium tweeters, so phono cantilevers shouldn't be a big deal. Nt - MWE 10:39:27 06/10/25 (0)
