Engineered for maximum magnetic efficiency and paired with pure silver coils this configuration ensures a clean powerful signal path that elevates overall performance.Custom-Developed Rubber DampersIn-house produced and developed rubber compounds form the core of the MC X Series’ mechanical damping system. Rubber dampers are essential for controlling the physical movement of the coils maintaining stability minimizing unwanted vibrations and enabling precise coil motion. The result is superior tracking reduced distortion and musical accuracy.Experience the Depth. Hear Every Detail.At the core of the MC X Series is an advanced honeycomb-struc

The SPU GTX S delivers the best of both worlds blending the musicality and rich tonal character that have defined Ortofon’s SPU series for decades with the latest innovations in audio technology. Rediscover the rich vintage warmth of vinyl with the Ortofon SPU GTX S featuring a spherical stylus. The spherical stylus is the most common stylus shape and has a rounded tip that contacts the groove walls of the record offering a balanced smooth sound. The built-in MC step-up transformer provides high-output low-noise performance preserving the classic SPU audio fidelity.FeaturesBuilt-In Step-Up TransformerBalanced Smooth SoundHand-Built In DenmarkGlass-Fiber Reinforced HousingHigh-Output Low-Noise PerformanceClassic SPU Audio FidelityPrecision Engineering & CraftsmanshipSPU GTX cartridges are hand-built by experienced workers in Denmark. Their unibody housings are molded in one piece from a specially selected glass-fiber reinforced co-polymer never before used for SPU cartridges. This ensures a form-factor stable rigid and low resonance housing for the fine generating system. The bottom cover is molded from the same new material encapsulating the engine in a uniform material and design.Built-In Step-Up TransformerThe SPU GTX Series is designed to simplify your setup without compromising sound quality. When developing the GTX series Ortofon chose to develop the new step-up transformers in collaboration with the company Lundahl Transformers. Thanks to the built-in step-up transformer these cartridges connect directly to any phono stage or amplifier with the ease of a moving magnet cartridge – no extra equipment needed.What's in the BoxSPU GTX S Spherical Diamond MC Cartridge with Step-Up TransformerSpecificationsCha
