The Numark CS1 is an SME compatible professional standard DJ cartridge. The CS1 is a phono cartridge specifically for DJing, with a curved finger lift and a low profile, streamlined design. Equipped with a spherical precision cut diamond stylus that tracks the groove of your record exceptionally. The spherical shape provides an accurate and detailed pickup, it protects your records from damage and the stylus is skip resistant which is great for back-cueing and scratching.

Creating a rich and colourful musical picture is CS1’s forte. Its sonic range is 20Hz to 20MHz and it produces a warm analog feel that accentuates the low and mid-range frequencies, perfect for any bass-heavy and dub-oriented tracks. Crafted with care and designed for durability, the CS1 is built from a robust plastic outer shell, with premium inner connections and components. It is SME-compatible. The cartridge requires 3G of tracking force, features detailed channel separation and has a channel balance of 1.5dB. This cartridge is the Carl Cox signature edition.
