Ortofon 2MR Cartridge

The 2MR Black features a low-profile body design that addresses the specific clearance requirements of Rega tonearms. This ensures proper tracking force and alignment without needing to add spacers to the tonearm base.

The Shibata stylus has a wide contact area that reaches deeper into the record groove than standard elliptical tips. This results in superior high-frequency detail, reduced distortion, and more accurate tracking of complex musical passages.

Yes, the 5 mV output is a standard level for moving magnet cartridges. It is fully compatible with virtually all integrated amplifiers and standalone phono preamplifiers designed for moving magnet (MM) inputs.

The Lexan DMX material is highly rigid, which helps to dampen unwanted mechanical vibrations and resonances. By minimizing these colorations, the cartridge provides a cleaner, more transparent, and more stable soundstage.

The 2MR Black is designed for straightforward installation and is compatible with most standard tonearms. While the low-profile body is optimized for Rega, its universal mounting system allows it to be easily aligned on any tonearm that accepts standard half-inch mount cartridges.

This technology allows the cartridge to maintain a flat frequency response similar to that of a moving coil design. It effectively reduces eddy current losses, resulting in a more balanced and detailed sound across the entire audible spectrum.
