Beyond AmazingThe 2M Black LVB 250 upgrades the great build of the 2M Black with a boron cantilever and our very own Nano Tube suspension system. The result is a sound so precise and so detailed that you feel like you have let the artist into your house and have them playing right in your living room.FeaturesNude Shibata StylusBoron CantileverNano Tube Suspension SystemAccuracy LevelThe 2M Black is an amazing cartridge and by many considered the ultimate in moving magnet. So why would Ortofon attempt to create something even better? Because perfection runs in their blood. The 2M Black LVB 250 upgrades the great build of the 2M Black and the result is a sound so precise and so detailed that you feel like you have let the artist into your house and have them playing right in your living room.StylusThe 2M Black LVB 250 upgrades the great build of the 2M Black with a Nude Shibata diamond on a boron cantilever. The use of an extremely stiff and lightweight Boron cantilever adds remarkable transparency speed and responsiveness. The Nude Shibata stylus’ slim highly polished profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the groove walls and ensures notably detailed reproduction throughout the spectrum including even the highest frequencies.Multi Wall Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNT)To attain an optimal interaction between compliance and damping a new rubber compound for the suspension system has been developed. The new rubber compound formula is based on the Multi Wall Carbon Nano Tubes' (MWCNT) highly efficient nano filler. The new MWCNT-based compound offers desirable mechanical properties which ensure better damping and improve the overall performance of the cartridge.What's in the Box2M Black LVB 250 Premounted MM Phono CartridgeSpecificationsChannel balance at 1 kHz: 1 dBOutput voltage at 1 kHz 5cm/sec: 5 mVChannel seperation at 1 kHz: 27 dBChannel seperation at 15 kHz: 15 dBFrequency response 20 Hz - 20 kHz: + 2 / - 1 dBTracking ability at 315Hz at recommended tr
