Ortofon 2M LVB 250

Yes, the 2M LVB 250 is physically compatible with the 2M Bronze and Black bodies. You can simply swap the stylus assembly onto your existing cartridge body to experience the performance benefits of the LVB 250.

The boron cantilever is exceptionally stiff and lightweight, which allows for faster, more accurate tracking of the groove. When paired with the nude Shibata stylus, this setup retrieves more micro-detail and provides a more transparent, open soundstage compared to standard elliptical styli.

The 2M LVB 250 features high compliance, making it an excellent match for most modern, medium-mass tonearms. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into a wide variety of high-fidelity turntable setups.

This advanced rubber compound provides superior damping properties, which helps the cartridge track complex musical passages more cleanly. It effectively reduces unwanted resonance, resulting in a more stable and distortion-free listening experience.

The recommended tracking force for the 2M LVB 250 is between 1.5 and 1.7 grams. We suggest starting at 1.6 grams and adjusting slightly within that range to find the optimal performance for your specific tonearm and record collection.
