NEW HIGHS.
The 5001D defines hard-to-get high frequencies because it comes with a cantilever that doesn't easily distort them.
It's boron-vapor hardened to track under "G forces that would buckle ordinary cantilevers.
NEW FIDELITY. In addition to hearing more highs you're going to hear less noise from a 5001D. There's nothing complex about the benefits of Samarium-Cobalt magnets. They are simply less massive and higher in output than conventional ones.
So, if we had to give a reason for our signal-to-noise ratio being better than most, it's because the materials we use are better than most.
NEW TECHNOLOGY. Because the 5001D features Empire's inertially damped tuned stylus system, its performance is consistent--even when the capacitance varies from one system to the next.
Which means, the performance we monitor in our lab is the performance you're likely to hear at home.
NEW SECURITY. Empire's two-year limited warranty is 365 days longer than the one-year limited warranty offered by many other manufacturers.
An extra year in no uncertain terms.
NEW SOUND. The Empire 5001D. You're an arm's length away from a new listening experience.
EVERYONE WHO WANTS THEIR OLD SYSTEM TO SOUND LIKE NEW, RAISE YOUR ARM.
Empire--
There's a new sound waiting in your system.
