Ladies and gents, can I introduce the fabulous Ortofon Bronze to those who've not yet had opportunity to check it out?

This is quite a remarkable cartridge : check the specifications below:

Key Technical Data:



Output Voltage (at 1kHz, 5cm/sec): 5mV
Frequency Range (at -3dB): 20 Hz – 29 kHz
Tracking Ability at 315Hz: Typically 80μm
Stylus Type: Nude Fine Line

Recommended Tracking Force: 1.5g (15mN)
Cartridge Colour Body / Stylus: Black / Bronze
Cartridge Weight: 7.2g
Replacement Stylus Unit: Stylus 2M Bronze


Why is it remarkable?

The 2M Bronze features a nude Fine Line diamond stylus, which is particularly suited for demanding applications. The slim profile of the Fine Line stylus will track even the highest frequency information, making it a must for discerning listeners. Additionally, its larger footprint ensures reduced distortion and record wear. The Stylus, importantly, also means less inner groove distortion and record/stylus wear

The cartridge body used for the 2M Bronze and 2M Black is manufactured from a newly-developed Noryl plastic/glass combination, a revolutionary material which ensures high rigidity while eliminating unwanted resonances. The 2M Bronze and 2M Black use a special upgraded engine, featuring split pole pins with a silver-plated copper wire.

If that is not remarkable enough, then there's the price:

Just £295!
