Ortofon 2M Blue

The 2M Blue provides an authentic listening experience by reproducing sound faithfully to the artist's vision. Designed with a Nude Elliptical diamond and split pole pins with a copper wire for easy mounting, it fits most turntables. Compatible with various playback systems and phono preamps, the 2M Series brings serious vinyl listening.

The 2M Blue adds more dynamics and resolution, sounds more open, and reproduces more details compared to the 2M Red model.
