The Ortofon Tango is Ortofon's entry level low output Moving Coil phono cartridge. A chance to get Moving Coil sound quality at an affordable price. The Ortofon Tango uses a diamond elliptical tip, tracks well, and will work well on medium to heavy arms - Linn and Rega arms would be ideal for example.
Moving Coil cartrodges like this do require that your phono preamp has a suitable setting for use with low output moving coild cartridges
