Shelter
cartridges and step-up transformer are made by Mr. Ozawa,
a former employee of Fidelity Research. For those too young to
remember Fidelity, this company thrived during the seventies an
eighties, making wonderful tonearms and cartridges that were
renowned all over the world. Hence, Yasuo Ozawa has a strong
background in cartridge design and in 1986, he left to establish
Shelter. Yasuo Ozawa holds the notion that music, in its
purest form, is art. Instead of believing that a phono
cartridge is a mechanical device for music reproduction, Yasuo
feels in his heart that his cartridges are indeed a musical
instrument in their own right.
Lovingly and meticulously hand-crafted, Shelter cartridges are
so precise that every nuance and every delicate passage of music
is faithfully reproduced at a level that is unmatched in the
audio world. Twenty years of painstaking, passionate and
meticulous attention to microscopic detail has lead Shelter to
the pinnacle of audio perfection. More and more great
reviews are now circulation on the internet about the
outstanding qualities of theses cartridges once only available
to wealthy Japanese audiophiles. Shelter's cartridges are
renowned for their flawless construction and high-precision
performance.
