In 1999 Dynavector released the revolutionary DRT XV-1 stereo cartridge that
pioneered the unique topology that included 8 Alnico magnets, magnetically
stable front yokes, square shaped front armature within the rather spectacular
deep "v" shaped front elevation. Combined with Dynavector's patented "Flux
Damping" this cartridge quickly became the worldwide benchmark for music lovers
and the audio press alike.
The subsequent flagship design for Dynavector the XV-ls released in 2002 refined
and improved the technology. Retaining the patented Flux Dumping but included
the magnetically stable front yoke with the unique square shaped aperture and
improved magnetic equalizing component, all encompassed in an African Ebony body
to provide further stability for the magnetic components.
First inspection of the new DV XV-lt reveals that although it is unmistakenly
Dynavector, the body beautiful is Urushi lacquered over a precision machined
component of heat treated bamboo that has been assiduously selected for both
design, elegance and acoustic performance.
Dynavector's patented Flux Damping process has been retained in concert with new
ground breaking innovations that will quickly establish the XV-lt as not only
the Dynavector flagship but set the contemporary standards in analog music
reproduction.
Technology abounds within the XV-lt but the Dynavector "rai-son d'etre" is
making the technology invisible and allowing the music to emerge like never
before.
A silky smoothness is added to the musical reality which the XV cartridges have
previously exhibited and as a result each instrument, performer or group is
clearly imaged with a warm and rich presence. Dynavector believe that this
emotive musical experience cannot be achieved by a digital source and with the
XV-lt they have created a "Super Analog World".
