An Alternative Product for Bottom Mount TonearmsIn addition to the range of acclaimed 2M top-mount models Ortofon is proud to present the new 2M Verso configuration for bottom mounting. Every 2M model is now also available in “Verso” configuration to allow easy mounting on tonearms which do not allow the screws to pass through the top of the headshell.FeaturesAdvancements in SoundThe 2M Series features Ortofon’s trademark split pole pins an invention which 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 and Ortofon OM Series.Ease of UseThe weight and size of 2M Series have been optimized to fit the most common turntables on the market today. The cartridge body has also been streamlined to provide easy mounting and alignment. The name “2M” was chosen as it represents the abbreviation for moving magnet MM. Moving magnet cartridges provide excellent compatibility in an assortment of playback systems and with a wide variety of phono preamps.Stylus TypesAll of the 2M cartridges feature diamonds that are polished to the highest standards of the industry.
