Sumiko Blue Point Special EVO III MC Cartridge

Sumiko Blue Point Special EVO III – Available in Both Low and High Output Versions

The Sumiko Blue Point Special EVO III is the pinnacle of Sumiko's renowned Oyster series, delivering a rich, textured, and tonally balanced sound with stunning realism. Whether you need a low-output or high-output moving coil (MC) cartridge, the Blue Point Special EVO III is designed to meet the diverse needs of audiophiles.

Blue Point Special EVO III Low

This low-output version requires MC-capable preamplification and offers a superior sense of spatial awareness, providing true moving coil soundstaging. The low-output model expands upon the capabilities of the high-output version, delivering a level of performance that’s hard to match at this price point. With the Blue Point Special EVO III Low, you’ll enjoy a richly textured sound with exceptional depth and clarity that rivals far more expensive cartridges.

Blue Point Special EVO III High

Designed for use with Moving Magnet (MM) phono stages, the high-output version allows you to experience the sonic benefits of a moving coil cartridge without needing to invest in additional MC preamplification. It provides the same open-body design and finely crafted sound signature, offering remarkable spatial awareness and tonal balance.

Handcrafted Excellence from Japan

Both versions of the Sumiko Blue Point Special EVO III are meticulously handcrafted in Yokohama, Japan, ensuring the highest level of precision and quality. These cartridges are equipped with a universal ½”-mount and threaded inserts in the cartridge body, making installation simple with just two screws.

Which Version is Right for You?

Choose the Blue Point Special EVO III Low if you have an MC-capable phono section and want to experience the full potential of moving coil soundstaging.

Opt for the Blue Point Special EVO III High if you have an MM phono stage and prefer a cartridge that doesn’t require additional MC preamplification but still delivers the rich, detailed sound of a moving coil design. We recommend a 20-hour break-in period for both versions to achieve optimal sound performance.
