Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge

Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge

The Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge is designed for precise and accurate retrieval of the information in the record groove. Our philosophy is to play the record sound as accurate as possible, without coloring the sound.

The name Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge was selected among several ideas. We wanted a modern name that would be easy to pronounce and to remember, and therefore an alpha numerical name was chosen. 2M means MM, which is the abbreviation for moving magnet.

We have optimized the design of the Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge for ease of mounting the cartridge, weight and size to fit the most common turntables at the market today.

The Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge is graced with a Shibata diamond stylus – the same diamond as on the acclaimed MC Jubilee. Its slim, highly polished profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the groove walls and ensures notably detailed reproduction throughout the spectrum, including even the most high frequency groove information.

The cartridge body used for the Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge is manufactured from a newly-developed Lexan DMX Piano Black, a revolutionary material which ensures high rigidity while eliminating unwanted resonances.

The Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge uses a special upgraded engine, featuring split pole pins with a silver plated copper wire.

Users of the Ortofon 2M Black Moving Magnet Cartridge will enjoy the benefit of impeccable sound quality, along with reduced record & stylus wear and reduced distortion and phase error as a result of the diamond’s improved tracking geometry.
