It is the ultimate Van Den Hul pickup capsule, which is to say that it is one of the best products of its kind available on the world market and an undisputed benchmark when it comes to turning the contents of vinyl record grooves into music. Created to enhance the sensational sonic performance of the Grasshopper series and available in three versions with as many output levels, The Colibri is the ultimate expression of A. J. van den Hul's talent and the consummation of a career dedicated body and soul to the pursuit of perfect reproduction of music recorded on the most popular of analogue media. Manufactured entirely by hand and to order, The Colobri is a small work of art of electromechanical engineering in which seemingly insignificant elements have been carefully considered to improve the quality of the final sound presentation: minimisation and adaptation of the overall magnetic circuit to reduce distortion, consequent reduction of the overall mass of the assembly, elimination of the front polar part thanks to the reduction of the length of the cantilever... all this combined with extreme care in the selection of the materials. A simply sublime product.

  • Absolute reference and low/very low output pick-up capsule handmade to order.
  • Moving Coil (MC) design with single crystal copper (XC and XC-HO versions) and gold (XG version) windings.
