ORTOFON 2M RED MOVING MAGNET CARTRIDGE
The ORTOFON 2M RED MOVING MAGNET CARTRIDGE uses an anti-resonant Hopelex cartridge body, and an elliptical stylus profile.
The 2M Red is the ultimate introductory hi-fi cartridge. Combining affordability and superior sound, it is a must-try for any audiophile on a budget. Supplied as standard on a range of turntables in the UK, the 2M Red is the perfect jumping-in point for Hi-Fi systems, offering a quality performance as well as easy upgrade options for the future.
The 2M Red is designed for precise and accurate retrieval of the information in the record groove. It is Ortofon's lasting philosophy to only ever play the recorded sound, without colouration.
- All-purpose cartridge that delivers an open, dynamic sound
- Overhead mounting cartridge for installing into a headshell
- Moving magnet cartridge with removable stylus
- Utilises Ortofon's split-pole pin technology to reduce the eddy current and to get a flat frequency response, like with an MC cartridge
- Anti-resonant Hopelex body
- Tipped Elliptical diamond stylus profile
2M Red Technology
The 2M Red has a diamond which is polished to the highest standards of the industry. This tipped elliptical diamond, despite being on the more affordable end of the spectrum, conforms to Ortofon's strict quality guidelines, both in terms of material quality and sound reproduction capabilities.
Other than these differences the 2M Red shares a body with the 2M Blue, meaning a stylus upgrade can yield the full benefit of a 2M Blue cartridge.
