Ortofon
Danish phono cartridges since 1918 — the difference between playing vinyl and hearing it.

Why we stock Ortofon
Ortofon have been perfecting the phono cartridge for over a century, and they remain the first name in vinyl for good reason. From the legendary 2M series — probably the most recommended cartridges in hi-fi — up to their exquisite moving-coil designs, an Ortofon cartridge delivers crisp treble, an articulate midrange and the kind of energy that makes records feel like performances.
A cartridge upgrade is one of the most cost-effective improvements you can make to a turntable, and we can advise on the right match for your deck and phono stage — whether that’s a Pro-Ject or something you’ve owned for decades.

A word from Duncan
Fitting and aligning a cartridge properly is fiddly work, and it makes all the difference — a perfectly good cartridge poorly set up will never show you what it can do. Buy an Ortofon from us and I’ll set it up properly for you. Bring your turntable in, bring a record you love, and we’ll get it singing.
