PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- The Ortofon 2M 78 Moving Magnet Cartridge is purpose-built for 78 RPM records delivering accurate and authentic playback for vintage shellac collections. Using a dedicated 78 RPM cartridge not only improves sound quality but also helps preserve your valuable and collectable records by reducing unnecessary wear. The 2M 78 features a spherical diamond stylus ideal for tracking the wider grooves found on 78s while Ortofons upgraded True Mono engine ensures a more precise and natural performance with minimal colouration. Its strapped mono output delivers a true mono signal to both channels making it perfect for enjoying 78s on a standard stereo system—even if you dont have a mono switch or dedicated mono phono stage. The removable stylus makes maintenance straightforward allowing for easy replacements when needed. Its also fully compatible with the Ortofon 2M Mono stylus giving you flexible upgrade options. A low-resonance Hopelex body further enhances performance by reducing distortion and helping to reproduce your music with greater accuracy.
