Ortofon 2M Blue

Ortofon are an unusual lot. We know them for their outstanding diamond styli, but they make all manner of interesting products with one common thread; Precision. From technical rubber parts to micro mechanical systems to bone conducting hearing aid add-ons, everything they produce evokes a sense of slightly sci-fi cool. 

But we were talking about needles for turn tables. We use almost nothing but Ortofon on our turn tables in store. The 2M range was a serious coup, offering the precision and tracking abilities of moving coil cartridges with the output of a moving magnet. They offer a range of quality options for almost any budget and every model is a star performer in its price point. From the very tidy Red through to the absolutely stunning Black, they're all amazing. 

The 2M Blue is a general improvement to everything offered by the 2M Red below it. It's the ultimate upgrade to almost any mid level turn table. Attach it to the end of your tone arm to see what your 'table is really capable of. The Blue steps up to a nude eliptical diamond (not as rude as it sounds) and split pole pin motor.
