  • 📌 LAB POINTS

    • Industry standard audiophile cartridges, now perfectly made for your Rega turntable (no additional spacer required)
    • Moving magnet (MM) design; Red has a diamond-tipped elliptical stylus, incremental upgrades available: Blue = nude elliptical diamond, Bronze = nude fine line diamond, Black = nude Shibata diamond, LVB 250 = Boron cantilever (upgrade from Aluminum), Mono & 78 = nude spherical diamond
    • Slimline cartridge body eliminates the need for tonearm spacers, shims, or modifications
    • Designed for Rega turntables/tonearms; compatible with similar models. For other turntables, a regular Ortofon 2M cartridge is recommended
    • Balanced, clean output & easy half-inch mounting
    • Upgradeable/interchangeable styli: 2M Blue stylus fits 2M Red body; Black fits 2M Bronze body; Mono fits 78 body (& vice versa)

    "The well-rounded 2M Red is our bestselling listening cartridge in its price range. An excellent choice for your first foray into audiophile cartridges; plus the ability to upgrade to the 2M Blue stylus later. With the 2MR line, Ortofon have considerately expanded their most popular line to account for those who listen with Rega (or similar) turntables, which previously required tedious and expensive add-ons to make the 2M series compatible. These 2MR models make those listener's lives just a bit easier, all while maintaining the standards they set for sound quality & pricing." - TTL
