*** Stylus only,does not include a cartridge ***
The SP-range of Bang & Olufsen cartridges enveloped a broad range of uses. The cartridge range was introduced as a result of stereophonic records becoming more and more popular with the introduction of microgrooved 33 rpm vinyl recordings. At that time there was no standard as such for playing back vinyl recordings. Bang & Olufsen paved the way with the company’sintroduction of the 15° tracking angle for stereo recordings, later adopted as a world standard.
Using the ‘moving iron’ principle a very small armature was placed over four tiny magnets. In playing a record the armature moved by extremely small degrees. An induced current, caused by this movement, was then relayed to the cartridge’s contacts. It was this very smll electrical current, amplified to quite an enormous degree by amplifiers attached to the record deck, which allowed users to hear their records.
Unlike the later MMC-range of cartridges where stylus and components were combined, the stylus of the SP-range was designed to be easily removed and replaced. In this way, music lovers could purchase a stylus (or styli) relevant to their needs. Suitable diamond-tipped styli could be bought for 78 rpm records, monophonic records as well as micro-groove stereophonic records of the late 1950s.
The SP14 was introduced to the range to be used with a medium compliance pickup and had a spherical diamond stylus.
The SP14A was added to the SP range by Bang & Olufsen as a suitable alternative to theSP6/7upon its withrawal from the market when it could offer a frequency range of between20Hz and 16000 Hz. It again was fitted with a spherical diamond stylus. It was the recommended cartridge for theBeogram 1200,Beogram 1202andBeogram 1203.
