Overview

The Soundsmith Zephyr MKIII enjoys a great history, starting with the well-loved VPI Zephyr original, which evolved into the well known Zephyr MKII. In their effort to bring you even higher definition without an increase in cost, Soundsmith introduced the NEW Zephyr MKIII. It features a newly developed aluminum alloy - the same one we are now using in the Paua MKII, just released. This new metal alloy has unique dualistic properties, providing stiffness in the ranges required as well as damping exactly where it's needed - and by the proper amount - in the most critical parts of the sonic spectrum. The result is a cartridge that will slam your Rock and Roll while providing a new level of linearity and clarity for the most complex classical and jazz passages.
