NEPTUNE “D” MONO

Mono “D” Cutter Head

Affordable Mono Cutting for Diamond & Lacquer Applications

The Mono “D” is a full-range mono cutter head designed for use with diamond (plastic) or sapphire (lacquer) cutting. Engineered for warmth, loudness, and reliability, it’s the ideal solution for vintage-style mono recordings—at a price that makes high-quality cutting accessible to all.

Key Features:

  • “D” for Diamond
    Specifically designed for use with diamond styli and plastic blanks, but also fully compatible with sapphire and traditional lacquer cutting.

  • Warm, Loud Mono Sound
    Perfect for period-correct vintage recordings and modern high fidelity recordings alike, offering greater loudness and fidelity than classic mono heads from the past.

  • Built-In Fuse Protection
    Includes an integrated fuse for added protection and to help reduce system cost—no need for an external fuse box.

  • Quick & Easy Setup
    Supplied with fixed wires, ready to connect to your amplifier and stylus heating system. Simple, no-hassle installation.

  • RIAA-Ready Output
    Requires use of our included FabFilter Pro-Q3 RIAA encoding preset. A dedicated System Phonics preamp with built-in RIAA and other features is coming soon.

  • Precision Stylus Mounting
    Like all our heads, this unit features a solid cast brass stylus holder. A professional stylus tool is required for proper insertion and long-term durability.
