Ortofon Moving Coil Cartridges

Ortofon moving coil (MC) cartridges are designed for high-end vinyl playback, delivering exceptional detail, precision and musical accuracy. As one of the world’s leading cartridge manufacturers, Ortofon has developed a wide range of MC designs aimed at serious hi-fi systems where maximum performance is the priority.

Unlike moving magnet designs, MC cartridges use coils attached to the cantilever that move within a magnetic field. This results in lower moving mass, allowing for greater responsiveness and more accurate tracking of the record groove.

Ortofon MC cartridges are engineered to extract the finest detail from vinyl, helping your system deliver:

- Extremely high resolution and detail retrieval
