Ortofon 2M Black
The Ortofon 2M series of moving-magnet cartridges was developed by the same designer responsible for the fabulous Ortofon Jubilee and Kontrapunkt cartridges. The Ortofon 2M Black is the top model in the range, and features a nude Shibata stylus.
This is Ortofon's top flight Moving Magnet cartridge and it really shows. Smooth, dynamic and detailed it can show a lot of Moving Coil designs a real run for their money. Highly recommended.
