Ortofon 2M 78 Moving Magnet Cartridge Overview

Increase sonic accuracy with the Ortofon 2M 78 Moving Magnet Cartridge. Featuring a state of the art spherical diamond, this turntable cartridge is ideal for playing 78 RPM shellac records, which demand a larger stylus profile. Your record needle refuses to be beat when reinforced with a refined engine that sets higher standards for accuracy and dependability in your record player tonearm. Packing a frequency range of 20 to 20,000 Hz, this cartridge helps to produce a rich sound while continuing to preserve the integrity of the original record and the foundation of your record player and tonearm. The strapped output produces an equalized output signal from both sets of pole pin, ensuring a more balanced sound from your vinyl. This phono cartridge removes the need for mono-specific equipment. Now, you can enjoy authentic mono reproduction, minus the need for any stereo playback systems. With the 2M 78, you truly have a top choice for better, easier vinyl sound.
