Ortofon Concorde Music Black MM Cartridge 6.0mV

Iconic, Award-Winning Cartridge Design

Building upon a rich legacy which began when Ortofon launched the original Concorde, the Concorde Music holds a storied history as one of the most famous cartridges in the world of audio.

Originally developed as a solution to the challenge of easy mounting on a tonearm without screws or wires, the Concorde's unique design earned the Danish Industrial Design Award and became an icon in the audio industry.

The Stylus: Precision in Every Groove

The Concorde Music Black, featuring a nude Shibata stylus on an aluminum cantilever, offers an upgrade from the Concorde Music Bronze.

The shape of the Shibata distinguishes itself by having a narrow and long contact surface. The Shibata is very close to the original cutting stylus which ensures the most accurate reproduction, low distortion and extended frequency range.

Rubber Suspension: Unique In-House Rubber Production

A crucially important and vital part of a phono cartridge overall performance is the stylus rubber suspension. Exclusive Ortofon rubber compounds are used for the stylus suspensions in the Concorde Music Black, carefully produced at the in-house rubber production, and developed by the research and engineering team at Ortofon for brilliant performance.

Coil System: Precise & Dynamic Sound Image

The Concorde Music features Ortofon's quad-coil generating system with split pole pins. Silver-plated, oxygen-free copper is chosen for the quad-coil system, along with four Ortofon split pole pins.

This results in exceptional channel balance and separation, delivering precise and dynamic sound. With a 6 mV output, it offers lifelike sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity, capturing every detail.
