And now - as we approach Ortofon´s 90 years Company Anniversary - we decided to combine our expertise and latest technology in the development of this outstanding cartridge design. As a result of reviewer listening tests we feel confident that you will appreciate and enjoy the unique qualities of these cartridges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2M\u003c\/strong\u003e is developed together with the Danish designer \"MøllerJensen Design\" from Copenhagen, Denmark - the same designer who designed the award winning cartridge MC Jubilee and the Kontrapunkt series. The inspiration for designing the 2M was related to the facets of the diamond - elegantly concentrating its contours against the grooves on the record surface. The name 2M was selected among several ideas. We wanted a modernname which should be easy to pronounce and to remember, and therefore an alpha numerical name was chosen. 2M means MM, which is the abbreviation for moving magnet. We are using the same names on our 2M series as we use at our Rondo series: Red, Blue and Bronze. The 2M Black will become the flagship of 2M. 2M was the last product of our former chief engineer Per Windfield. He has worked with the 2M for the last two years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 2M Technology\u003c\/strong\u003e 2M are designed for precise and accurate retrieval of the information in the record groove. Our philosophy is to play the record sound as accurate as possible, without coloring the sound. We have optimized the design for ease of mounting the cartridge, weight and size to fit the most common turntables at the market today. All of the 2M cartridges feature diamonds which are polished to the highest standards in the industry. The 2M Red features a tipped elliptical diamond stylus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo obtain a flat frequency response as with a Moving Coil cartridge we are using the slit pole pins to reduce the eddy current. The slit pole pins is an Ortofon invention which was presented in the 500 series and the Super OM series. The 2M Red and 2M Blue both have the same engine with slit pole pins. With this improved engine we have been able to increase to output to 5,5 mV. The cartridge body used for the 2M Bronze and 2M Black is manufactured from a newly-developed Noryl plastic\/glass combination, a revolutionary material which ensures high rigidity while eliminating unwanted resonances. The 2M Bronze and 2M Black use a special upgraded engine, featuring split pole pins with a silver plated copper wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta http-equiv=\"content-type\" content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStylus type:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eElliptical\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput voltage at 1 kHz, 5cm\/sec:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e5.5 mV\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStylus tip radius - r\/R:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e8\/18 µm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking force range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.6-2.0 g (16-20 mN)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking force, recommended:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1.8 g (18 mN)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e20°\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended load resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e47 kOhm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended load capacitance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e150-300 pF\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e7.2 g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ortofon","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":21830552453,"sku":"2MRED","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/products\/2MredSmall.jpg?v=1741632610"},{"product_id":"ortofon-2m-blue-moving-magnet-cartridge","title":"Ortofon 2M Blue Moving Magnet Cartridge","description":"\u003ch1\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrtofon 2M Blue Moving Magnet Cartridge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/stereophile_recommended_2018_logo_e11530fc-bffb-491f-bd9d-e8da0c37b9be_compact.jpg?v=1535498081\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures a nude elliptical stylus and offers an accurate, uncolored sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe 2M series was developed with the MøllerJensen Design from Copenhagen; the designers of the award-winning MC Jubilee and the Kontrapunkt series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe series was designed for precise and accurate retrieval of the information in the record groove. Ortofon has optimized the design for ease of mounting the cartridge,  with a weight and size to fit the most common turntables on the market today. They use diamonds that are polished to the highest standards in the industry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo obtain a flat frequency response, Ortofon uses slit pole pins to reduce eddy currents.

The name 2M was selected among several ideas. Ortofon wanted a modern name that should be easy to pronounce and to remember, and therefore an alphanumerical name was chosen. 2M means MM, which is the abbreviation for moving magnet. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe 2M Black is the new moving magnet flagship from Ortofon.

At the end of the cadenza, the orchestra re-enters, and generally finishes off the movement. During the 19th century, composers began to write cadenzas out in full. Others wrote cadenzas for works, where the composer had intended for the solo to be improvised, in order for the soloist to have a well formed solo that they could practice in advance. Some of these have become so widely played and sung that they are effectively a part of the standard repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Ortofon Cadenza Bronze\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bronze model is using a Replicant 100 stylus and a conical aluminium cantilever.
