Blue Point Special EVO III Low
Classic Moving Coil Phono Pickup

Delivering an expansive soundstage rich with subtlety, Blue Point Special EVO III is an Oyster on a mission to retrieve musical information you have yet to hear from your records. Introducing our distinguished line of open-body moving coil cartridges, it offers a sense of spacial awareness you’d otherwise spend much more to achieve. Consequently it transcribes the nuance around instruments with startling realism in overall rich, textured & tonally balanced reproduction. 

For those with MC-capable phono sections we offer the Blue Point Special EVO III Low. It expands on what the HO is capable of, offering true moving coil soundstaging that’s near impossible to find elsewhere for your dollar. It further reduces noise, convincingly bringing the sonic image closer to you and bearing surprises you’ve likely not heard in your favorite LPs.

Our Classic Oysters
Over 40 years and worldwide, our classic Oyster Series has left thousands of captivated listeners in its wake. The series is comprised of our Oyster (MM), Black Pearl (MM), Pearl (MM), Blue Point No. 2 (HOMC) & Blue Point Special EVO III (H & LOMC) — each capable of delivering a degree of refinement you have yet to hear from your turntable system. The cartridges have established themselves over decades as high-value gems that dependably out-perform listeners’ expectations for their dollar. Marked by honesty in analog reproduction, our Oyster Series remains true to what’s in the groove, impressively and convincingly voiced to bring you closer to your music.

Trade In or Trade Up
As user-replaceable styli are not on an option for moving coil phono cartridges, remember that any of our MCs, functional or otherwise, can be returned to your dealer in a re-tip exchange — a discount on the same cartridge or one model up, sparing you expense when your stylus heads south!

Hand-Crafted in Japan
From Oyster to Reference, each Sumiko phono cartridge is crafted by hand in Yokohama, Japan — near the waters where our namesake Oysters dwell. We’ve selected by ear the finest materials that combine to deliver performance that has enlightened generations of listeners. Each design is thoroughly auditioned until perfected. Production is then executed by world-class cartridge makers with a collective eye for precision & quality. The result is a full horizon of cartridges eager to introduce themselves to your analog system — we firmly believe there’s a perfect cartridge for you here.
