Growing demand for the ability to transcribe vinyl to digital formats has led to the creation of the Arkiv cartridge, which is specially designed to deliver optimized sound quality for recording purposes.

The Arkiv features a Special Elliptical stylus for more detailed sound reproduction and extended high-frequency response. It excels in providing clear and accurate sound reproduction, as well as remarkable stereo imaging, making it perfectly suited for sampling, transcription, and various other professional applications.
