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. 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. The 2M black is graced with a Shibata diamond stylus - the same diamond as on the acclaimed MC Jubilee. Its slim, highly polished profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the groove walls and ensures notably detailed reproduction throughout the spectrum, including even the most high frequency groove information. The 2M series has interchangeable stylus units and replacement stylus is available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStylus type:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNude Shibata\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking force range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.4-1.7 g (14-17 mN)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking force, recommended:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 g (15 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\u003eInternal impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1.2 kOhm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInternal inductance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 63\u003c\/span\u003e0 mH\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\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta http-equiv=\"content-type\" content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2M PnP MkII cartridge with integrated headshell weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e20 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2M PnP MkII cartridge with integrated headshell length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e52 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput voltage (1000 Hz, 5 cm\/sec.):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e5 mV\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChannel balance (1 kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChannel separation (1 kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e 26 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChannel separation (15 kHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e15 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response (+2\/-1 dB):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e- 20-20,000 Hz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking ability at 315 Hz at recommended tracking force:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e80 µm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompliance, dynamic, lateral:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e22 µm\/mN\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStylus tip radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003er\/R 6\/50 µm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ortofon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21830558021,"sku":"2MBLACK","price":749.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/products\/2MblackHQ.jpg?v=1741632603","url":"https:\/\/upscaleaudio.pro\/products\/ortofon-2m-black-moving-magnet-cartridge","provider":"Upscale Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
