Jo N°8: Uncompromising high-end moving-coil cartridge for maximum sound fidelity

Extracting previously hidden musical nuances from the record groove – that's precisely what the EAT Jo N°8 was developed for. Following the worldwide acclaim of its predecessor, the Jo N°5, as a benchmark for affordable high-end performance, founder Jozefina Lichtenegger takes the next logical step towards uncompromising top-class performance with this moving-coil (MC) cartridge. Developed without price constraints, this electromechanical transducer combines the most exclusive components, the strictest selection criteria, and an elegant precision housing to deliver an exceptional listening experience for discerning vinyl enthusiasts.

Precise signal conversion at the most crucial point in the audio chain

As an electromechanical transducer, the cartridge performs the most sensitive task within a hi-fi system: the lossless translation of mechanical groove information into electrical signals. Because distortion is significantly more pronounced at this stage than in the subsequent amplification, EAT prioritizes maximum linearity and minimal distortion. Inside, a coil wire made of high-purity 8N copper works in perfect harmony with a special TPE suspension. The meticulous selection of all individual components to the tightest manufacturing tolerances results in an exceptionally linear frequency response with impressive dynamics and spatial depth.

Naked Shibata diamond on a boron cantilever for maximum detail resolution

At the heart of the cartridge is a nude Shibata diamond stylus mounted on an ultra-lightweight and extremely rigid boron cantilever. This exquisite combination enables highly precise groove tracking, extending into the highest frequency ranges, and effortlessly extracts even the finest overtones and microscopic details from the vinyl. Optimized as the ideal partner for the F-Note tonearm, the system also unfolds its full sonic potential with other high-quality tonearms.

Elegant case made of chestnut wood and aluminum

The Jo N°8 impresses both visually and acoustically with its resonantly optimized body made of dark-stabilized, solid chestnut wood combined with aluminum. The matte-finished wooden housing not only lends the cartridge an elegant, timeless aesthetic, but also dampens unwanted cabinet resonances extremely effectively. This masterpiece of precision engineering is presented in a stylish, exclusive, real wood gift box.
