Dynavector Moving Coil Cartridge DV XX-2 MKII
n
Description
Dynavector have remained the worlds leading moving
coil manufacturer since 1987. The DV XX-2 MKII is the
outstanding result of Dynavectors' continuing research
and advanced technology. Although the construction of
the XX-2 MKII is both sturdy and rigid it is never the less
a precision instrument. Due care and attention during
installation and handling will ensure optimum performance
and years of listening pleasure.
The DV XX-1 was the rst cartr i d ge to featur e a
"magnetic ux damper" (patent) and softened magnetism"
(patent) processes that reject the magnetic uctuation that
is detrimental to a moving coil cartridges performance.

Improvents
The DV XX-2 MKII retains the benet of the ux damper
but features the Alinco-5 magnet and the similar rigid
co nstr ucti on to the Te Kaitor a Rua. Alnico mag nets
exhibit high magnetic ux density combining with a low
coercive therefore magnetic resistance is lower than other
magnetic types such as rare earth and ferrite, providing
the exceptional stability of the XX-2 MKII output voltage.
There is also the additional advantage of low magnetic
and electrical resistance contributing to a discernable
improvement in sound quality.
The XX-2 MKII also exhibits deep powerful bass, treble
is both clear and lively possessing none of the hardness
found in many moving coil designs. This can be accredited
to not only Dynavector's skilled assembly techniques
but also a meticulous attention to design, materials, and
engineering expertise.

Stylus Cleaning
Keep your records clean. Dust causes record wear and
sonic distortion. When cleaning the stylus use the soft
brush supplied with the cartridge. Brush only from back
to front to avoid damage to the stylus assembly. If a dark
deposit like tan should appear on the stylus tip, always
use the soft brush with a minium amount of of high quality
stylus cleaning uid. No-alcohol stylus cleaning uid is
recommended in a routine maintenance.
We do not recommend to use commercial cleaning
vibrators.

Connection
Connect the lead wires from the headshell to each pin
shown below.
n
Mounting to the Headshell
Please use M2.5mm enclosed screws to mount the
cartridge. The overhang should be aligned according to
the instruction manual for the tonarm.

Stylus Replacement and Warranty
Dynavector operate an exchange scheme for the XX-2
MKII which entails rebuilding the cartridge. The rebuild
includes replacing all moving parts, ie the cantilever and
stylus assembly as well as the coils and suspension. This
allows replacement stylus cost to be minimised.
To qualify for an exchange please return the cartridge to
your dealer or national distributor.
The cartridge is guaranteed for a period of one year from
date of purchase against electrical and mechanical defects
excluding user's mishandling or abuse.
If there is any problem please consult your authorised
dealer rst for service. Should it prove necessary to return
the cartridge to the factory, you should return the defective
cartridge to your dealer or national distributor, together
with the warranty card. Please keep your original packing
for safe shipping.
