Not one to shy away from fun

The nude, lighter diamond allows the cartridge to play with higher resolution and even more dynamics compared to the Ortofon MC Quintet Red, though it does not quite reach the fine detail of an Ortofon MC Quintet Bronze.

A nude diamond has less moving mass compared to a bonded diamond. Due to the lower mass inertia, the stylus can follow the groove modulation more easily. More fine detail and improved dynamic behavior are the immediately audible result.
