Iconic design

Building upon a rich legacy which began when we launched the original Concorde, the Concorde Music holds a storied history as one of the most famous cartridges in the world of audio.

Originally developed as a solution to the challenge of easy mounting on a tonearm without screws or wires, the Concorde's unique design earned the Danish Industrial Design Award and became an icon in the audio industry.

Stylus

The Concorde Music Red features an Elliptical diamond polished to the highest standards of the industry, mounted on a premium aluminium cantilever. This ensures the best possible transmission of the vinyl record groove modulations picked up by the diamond.

Rubber suspension

The Concorde Music Red utilises an exclusive Ortofon rubber compound for its stylus suspension. Developed and produced in Ortofon's unique in-house rubber production, this suspension is a crucial and vital component contributing to the overall performance of the phono cartridge.

Coil system

The Concorde Music features Ortofon's quad-coil generating system with split pole pins. Silver-plated oxygen-free copper is chosen for the quad-coil system, along with four Ortofon split pole pins.

This results in exceptional channel balance and separation, delivering precise and dynamic sound. With a 6 mV output, it offers lifelike sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity, capturing every detail.

Compatibility

Installing the Concorde Music cartridge on your turntable is easy and straightforward; no tools are required, making it hassle-free and convenient for all users. This is thanks to the bayonet/SME connector, which makes it compatible with all S-shaped tonearms.

Upgradeability

The Concorde Music Red can be upgraded with all Concorde Music styli, enabling an upgrade path throughout the entire series up to the Concorde Music Black LVB 250.

Upgrading the stylus is a simple task; simply pull the stylus off and replace it with the new one. Remember to keep the stylus guard on when installing the new stylus to keep the needle safe.
