Manufactory

We at EMT are enthusiastic about music reproduction and we feel sure that analogue technology harmonizes best with the nature of music.All pickups are built piece by piece in fine craftsmanship by our well educated team of watchmakers and assembling employees. Even if we are familiar with most modern designing and manufacturing equipment, personal experience in listening and manual skills are the real reason making our cartridges so precious and musical.
