A Very Homogeneous Cartridge

The Ortofon MC Quintet Blue is a moving coil (MC) phono cartridge designed to enhance your vinyl listening sessions with greater detail and depth. Ideal for audiophiles seeking a balanced and dynamic sound, this cartridge brings out the nuances in your music collection, making each record come alive.

Smooth and Detailed Sound Reproduction

Compared to its counterpart, the Quintet Red, the Quintet Blue offers a smoother sound profile. It provides a more refined reproduction, capturing subtle details that contribute to a richer listening experience. This makes it a versatile choice for various music genres, especially those with rhythmic complexity.

Advanced Stylus Design

At the heart of the Quintet Blue is a Nude Elliptical diamond stylus mounted on an aluminum cantilever. This design ensures precise tracking of the record grooves, resulting in accurate sound reproduction. The stylus's shape allows for a broader contact area with the groove walls, which translates to improved detail retrieval and reduced distortion.

Innovative Cartridge Construction

The cartridge body is crafted from a special thermoplastic material known for its lightweight and impact-resistant properties. This construction not only enhances durability but also minimizes unwanted resonances, contributing to the cartridge's overall sonic clarity.
