Shelter cartridges and step-up transformer are made by Yasuo Ozawa formerly of Fidelity Research which used to produce wonderful analog products in the 70s and 80s.
Ozawa san 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 like their namesake - a shelter from a cold and harsh sound. They have a welcoming warm embrace that is not unlike a warm cozy home in a stormy weather. Listening to them is like going home - everything is at once familiar, natural and soothing.
