Over 40 years and worldwide, Sumiko's classic Oyster series has left thousands of captivated listeners in its wake. The series is comprised of their Oyster (MM), Black Pearl (MM), Pearl (MM), Blue Point No. 2 (HOMC) & Blue Point Special EVO III (H & LOMC) — each capable of delivering a degree of refinement you have yet to hear from your turntable system.
