Description
National EPS 30 ES | analogis BLACK DIAMOND
Tonally very interesting replica from analogis, suitable for National EPC-P30 in naked, elliptical design. Naked means, the diamond is not mounted in a socket on the needle tube, but glued directly into the tube. This design is complex, but it makes a difference in sound.
- Needle cut: elliptical, nude diamond
- Tracking force: 1,15 g – 1,5 g (measured 03/2022)

Info | About the BLACK DIAMOND Series
These diamonds are made from a cut-to-length synthetic cuboid bar. Viewed under the microscope, you will hardly find an uglier diamond: the sides (not the cut!) are rough, the cut tends to be outside the center of the cuboid (off center cut) and the flanks appear unevenly long as a result. But if you then put the microscope on its side and close your eyes and just listen to the sound, you will see the true beauty of the BLACK DIAMOND series.
