Ortofon 2M Bronze Moving Magnet - Turntable Cartridge
The Ortofon 2M Bronze Moving Magnet Cartridge features a Nude Fine Line diamond, which is particularly suited for demanding applications.
The slim profile of the Fine Line stylus will track even the highest frequency information, making it a must for discerning listeners.
Additionally, its larger footprint ensures reduced distortion and record wear.
- The cartridge body is manufactured from Hopelex, an environment-friendly material which ensures high rigidity while eliminating unwanted resonances.
- The 2M Bronze uses a special upgraded engine, featuring split pole pins with a silver plated copper wire.
Ortofon have optimised the design for ease of mounting the cartridge, and the weight and size to fit the most common turntables on the market today.
The 2M Series provides excellent compatibility when used in an assortment of playback systems and with a wide variety of phono preamps.
The 2M Bronze Verso model is an alternative product for bottom mount headshells.

Each of the 2M Series cartridges has its own individual sonic expression, and all five models together represent the ensemble of five classic variations:
- 2M Mono and 2M 78 are true mono cartridges for playing mono vinyl records
- 2M Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers an open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth
- 2M Blue adds more dynamics and resolution, sounds more open and reproduces more details
- 2M Bronze adds even more details and resolution but in a very even-handed way that pays respect to all elements
- 2M Black is the best of everything, true to the groove with resolution and accurate insight into each recording
The 2M series of cartridges features Ortofon’s trademark split pole pins, an invention that enables moving magnet cartridges to have a flat frequency response, as with a moving coil cartridge.
Split pole pins were invented by Ortofon, and were originally presented in the 500 series and OM Super series.
