Compatibility

The Ortofon 2MR Red features a specially designed cartridge housing tailored for turntables and tonearms like Rega, matching their requirement for low-form factor cartridges.

With its narrow cartridge housing, it seamlessly integrates without a need for modifications or spacers under the tonearm, enabling quick and easy mounting with just two screws.

Tailor Your Listening Experience

Additionally, the 2MR maintains the hallmark of interchangeability, allowing you to explore your records in greater depth and detail. Begin your musical journey with the 2M Red stylus, taking your first step into the world of captivating sound. As you delve deeper into your vinyl collection and upgrade to the series, you'll feel the music come alive, experiencing the pinnacle of audio perfection with the 2M Black LVB stylus, where the sound is so precise and detailed that it feels like you've invited the artist into your home.

This seamless transition between stylus profiles lets you tailor your listening experience, ensuring every note is heard with unparalleled accuracy and emotion. The 2MR series empowers you to explore your records like never before, allowing you to savor every moment of your favorite music.

Features

The 2MR Red features a high-performance motor system with quad coils and Ortofon's very own invention: the split pole pins with a copper wire that gives you a sound reproduction so precise only your heart dares skip a beat.

The engine provides an increased output of 5.5 mV, an optimized sound reproduction, and a high level of sonic accuracy.

The 2MR Red is aimed at vinyl newbies who don't want to forego sound quality. At 99 euros, it may seem quite expensive to the average budget hunter, but in return, you get a sound that the competition's cheap cartridge systems can never deliver. Anyone who is truly interested in the subject of records but doesn't want to invest heavily will enjoy the 2MR Red for a very long time.
