The Roksan Shiraz is a high-end cartridge that is capable of outstanding musical involvement and detail from its Gyger II stylus.
The Swiss made Gyger II has a super fine line profile, offering excellent tracking ability, stunning detail retrieval and low surface noise. The body is made from a solid aluminium alloy and fitted with a robust, broadcast-standard generator uniquely fixed to the body with three spikes, giving it precise alignment and coupling without using distortion-inducing adhesives.
Excessive cantilever movements at certain frequencies are damped by the capacitors mounted directly to the generator over the coil, where they accurately preserve the minute signal. Sonically, the frequency extremes are well integrated with a clear precise midrange; deep, agile bass and open and extended treble.

Roksan
The year was 1985 when Roksan was founded by two recent graduates of the University of London, Imperial Collage London and Queen Mary Collage, Mr. Tufan Hashemi and Mr. Touraj Moghaddam. Due to the Persian origin of the two named founders, the name Roksan is derived from the female name Roxana, who was the daughter of King Darius of Persia. With that mindset, it is not surprising that much of the names of Roksan’s various products are references to the names of cities, places and famous people of Persia. Roksan’s products are characterized by elegant design and, in terms of price-performance ratio, amazing technical features that will be appreciated by both beginners and advanced audiophiles alike.
