Take a step up in sound quality, with the Ortofon 2M Blue Stylus.
A step up in sound
With an improved engine, featuring a higher output than the 2M Red, the 2M Blue gives a higher level of sonic accuracy.
Nude Elliptical diamond
Featuring a Nude Elliptical stylus, the 2M Blue creates a wider contact with the groove than the 2m Red model. It’s this increased contact that gives the 2M Blue a more dynamic sound with deeper bass and brighter treble. A wider contact also means less damage to your precious records.
Ideal for budget to mid-range decks
The Ortofon’s wide-ranging abilities make it the ideal choice for all turntables, right up to around £1000. Its balanced sound also means it’s ideal for listening to a wide range of music genres.
Make a move to hear more. Fit the Ortofon 2M Blue Stylus to dig out the music.

Fantastically easy to replace!
Bought a replacement stylus to replace the original one which was over 4 years old, so was due. Contacted Richee Sounds online and was provided with great advice from Felix. It was so easy to replace and the sound is so much better. Expensive it may be, but so worth it. You get what you pay for.

Very worthwhile stylus upgrade
This was an upgrade from the Ortofon 2M Red stylus, which came with my Pro-Ject Carbon Evo. I really enjoyed the sound of the original set up, but noticed some sibilance on certain LPs. After doing a bit of research about reducing sibilance and IGD (inner groove distortion), and making sure the turntable was level and adjusting the tracking, decided to follow advice and upgrade my stylus. Upgrading from 2M Red to 2M Blue is technically really easy - you only need buy the stylus - you do not need to replace the whole cartridge - and you simply ease the Red off and the Blue on. I wasn't expecting much of a difference in sound, so I was really surprised by what I heard. I played the albums that I'd experienced sibilance on and the sibilance had gone. The sound was more dynamic, detailed and rich (some of the "warmth" of the Red was missing, but the dynamism and accuracy more than made up for this). The separation of the different instruments was also more noticeable. What I thought would make a small step up in my listening pleasure was actually a major leap - I thoroughly recommend this upgrade.

Ortofon blue stylus upgrade from red
I decided to upgrade my ortofon red stylus to the superior blue version. I looked at suppliers and had no hesitation in purchasing from Richer sounds as I have 9n several occasions found their services to be excellent.
The blue stylus was a lovely upgrade and I could tell the difference in quality immediately.

Yup - as good as they say.
Ordered one as an upgrade to my 2M red. And yes, the improvement (over something that was already pretty good) is remarkable. Clarity and depth that I thought I had before I do now really have.
Definitely worth every penny. Don't hesitate.
Do it.
Do it.
Do it.
You know you want to.

A clear step up
Took the plunge and replaced my 2M Red. I certainly expected to hear an improvement, a little more clarity and sharpness, but it wasn't little. You can hear the improvement instantly, a true step up. You will find yourself digging out vinyl you haven't listened to for years, and thinking 'should I upgrade my cables?'.

Excellent upgrade
Recently purchased a Project Esprit SB turntable- which brought me back into the vinyl fold after decades of being away- which comes with the very good Ortofon red stylus fitted but after doing a little research decided to upgrade with the Blue.
Replacing the stylus was very easy & I was very pleased that I would not need to change the cartridge as it is suitable for both the Red & Blue Ortofon stylus.
The improvement in sound was noticeable straight away the sound being a lot more detailed & clear from the start.
I am now keeping the Red as a spare & would recommend anyone the Blue as a simple relatively cheap upgrade for their vinyl.
