Key Features
The Ortofon 2MR 78 Cartridge is a mono output cartridge that seamlessly produces a rich sound output, without colouration. It offers an advanced True Mono engine which enhances sonic accuracy, making it a great choice for retro vinyl enthusiasts. The high-end spherical diamond stylus has a larger contact area with the record groove, allowing for accurate sound reproduction on 78-rpm records.
Utilising Ortofon's split-pole pin technology, this cartridge enables great channel separation and reduces eddy currents to advance the frequency quality. The overhead mounting design has been created for quick and easy installation onto a headshell, making it adaptable to most contemporary turntables. The Ortofon 2MR 78 Cartridge is primed for capturing the magic of early 20th-century records, in stunning sound quality.
