Grado Aeon

$6,000.00

The Prince

The
younger sibling to the Epoch, the Aeon unites sapphire, diamond, and
wood in a major step forward for phono cartridge design.

Inspired by the Best.

Worthy Sound

The
Lineage Series brings a higher level of listening to your vinyl, and
the Aeon was built for just that. Inspired by the Grado Epoch, the Aeon
brings to life an exceptional reproduction of vocals and instruments,
with superlative tonal balance, dynamics, imaging, and realism. The Aeon
features a unique system that has the lowest effective moving mass of
any cartridge, while our patented Flux-Bridger generator design creates a
superior balance throughout the full frequency spectrum with superb
resolution and clarity, which produces an overall truer picture of the
music.
All
of the internal magnetic circuit parts are Swiss screw machined or
molded metal, which have tolerances on the order of the best Swiss-made
watches. The specially designed diamond stylus, for the first time in a
Grado, is mounted on a sapphire cantilever that connects to the stylus
generating system. The Lineage series features a unique system that has
the lowest effective moving mass of any cartridges, while Grado’s
patented Flux-Bridger generator design creates a superior balance
throughout the full frequency spectrum with superb resolution and
clarity, which produces an overall truer picture of the music. This is
all nestled inside a selected cocobolo wooden housing.

In 1953,
the Grado family started building cartridges on their kitchen table.
Every experience in the family’s history has led to the creation of the
Lineage Series. The Aeon represents the craftsmanship and unwavering
dedication to sound that has been Grados main focus for over 65 years.
The Aeon is now available for $6,000.

The Materials

A
major step forward in phono cartridge design, the sapphire, diamond,
and cocobolo work in harmony to bring this cartridge to life. The
specially designed diamond stylus, for the first time in a Grado, is
mounted on a sapphire cantilever that connects to the stylus generating
system. The Aeon features a unique system that has the lowest effective
moving mass of any cartridge, staying steady on your turntable.

In the Details.

Extreme Precision

All
of the internal magnetic circuit parts are Swiss screw machined or
molded metal, which have tolerances on the order of the best Swiss-made
watches. Grado’s coil winding techniques, honed throughout the decades,
bring exact unison between the four coils in each phono cartridge. This
creates precise balance between channels and accurate stereo imaging.

The Sound of Wood.

Built from Cocobolo

The
flagship Grado cartridge is nestled inside a cocobolo housing, adding
solid mass and a bold yet revealing signature sound. Cocobolo, known for
fine instruments and those chess sets that look too nice to touch, is
some of the most beautiful and tonally pleasing woods we have ever used.
Its denseness and grain is a primary reason why it produces such a
unique sound.

With Love.

Hand-Built in Brooklyn

Each
Aeon built sees final assembly by John Grado himself on his workbench.
Every experience in our history has led to the creation of the Lineage
Series. The Aeon represents the craftsmanship and unwavering dedication
to sound that has been Grado’s main focus for over half a century.
