Premium MM cartridge with a Nude Fine Line diamond and Verso bottom mounting. Delivers precise, open and nuanced sound with excellent groove tracking. Read more.
The Ortofon 2M Bronze Verso is a premium Moving Magnet cartridge designed for turntables that require the cartridge to be attached from underneath the headshell. This dedicated Verso construction combines practical bottom mounting with the refined and accurate performance of the acclaimed 2M Bronze.
Its Nude Fine Line diamond traces the smallest variations in the record groove, retrieving an exceptional amount of musical information. Voices, acoustic instruments and spatial details are reproduced with an open, natural and controlled character. Explore all products from Ortofon.
The slim Fine Line profile can accurately trace finely recorded high-frequency information. This makes subtle ambience, instrument placement and small dynamic variations easier to hear. The aluminium cantilever transfers the movements of the diamond quickly and accurately.
The quad-coil generator uses split pole pins and silver-plated OFC coil wire. This construction contributes to precise channel reproduction and the open, balanced presentation of the 2M Bronze Verso.
The Verso version was developed specifically for headshells that require the cartridge to be mounted from below. This differs from the standard 2M housing, which is normally secured from above. Check the mounting arrangement of your headshell or tonearm before ordering.
