”The 2M Black has a three dimensional imagery worthy of the most sophisticated vinyl replay systems.”- ‘Hi-Fi News’.

Ultimate Moving Magnet sound quality

If you’re using a Moving Magnet phonostage then the Ortofon 2M Black is one of the finest cartridges you can buy. Suitable for decks costing right up to £2000 - £3000, the 2M Black can withstand many upgrades to the rest of your kit before it’s out of its depth. Its natural and musical sound lets you forget about the Hi-Fi and simply enjoy the music – exactly what all good Hi-Fi should do.

Top of the range – diamond performer
Standing at the top of Ortofon’s impressive 2M range, the 2M Black has an impressive spec to rival the best. Tipped with a Shibata diamond stylus, as used on the reference quality Ortofon MC Jubilee, the 2M Black offers a wide contact area with your vinyl. A wide contact area means deeper bass, more detail from the top end and less damage to your precious records.

Superior construction
Using a body made from Lexan DMX Piano Black, the 2M Black is extremely rigid while also eliminating unwanted resonances. This reduces distortion, bringing detail to the fore and promotes a more natural sound. Attention to detail extends to split pole pins with silver-plated copper wire – for the most musical transition of sound.

It’s a tiny part of your system but one that can make the biggest difference. To hear just how good your vinyl can sound, hook up with the Ortofon 2M Black.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Cartridge Really great cartridge and combines well with my Technics 1200GR turntable. Previously had a Linn's top MM Cart and the Ortofon 2M black sounds a lot better with excellent detail to sound.
