Van Den Hul Colibri XGW Stradivarius

The body of the van den Hul Colibri XGW Stradivarius is made from cross-grained Brazilian Pau Ferro wood, a high density wood that is often used in the bows of stringed instruments. It’s coated with what van den Hul calls a ‘Stradivarius’ lacquer, named after the famous violin maker, Antonio Stradivari. Van den Hul applies three separate layers of this secret formula lacquer and each layer takes several weeks to fully cure and harden, meaning that every cartridge body undergoes months of work before any further construction can even begin.


The Coils are hand wound and made from matched crystal gold wiring. 


This combination gives you an incredible combination of rich naturalness and resolution.


Not to be confused with the Crimson XGW Stradivarius, this unit is the Crimson's older, more refined sibling. It has incredible channel separation. Detail, imaging and soundstage are second to none. All of this and it keeps a realism and musicality unique to the high end Van den Hul cartridges.

Product Description

Details

The van den Hul Colibri XGW Stradivarius has a high output of 1.10mV, which is the result of pairing a high-strength magnet with six-layer, 24-karat gold coils. The solid boron cantilever is tipped with a proprietary van den Hul Type 1s, 2×85μm stylus. Each Colibri XGW Signature Stradivarius cartridge is hand-built to order by A.J. van den Hul personally, and so the build process can be tailored according to the customer’s preferences. A 200-hour check-up service is offered free of charge to the original owner.
