Ortofon MC Verismo

The Ortofon Exclusives series offers some of the best Moving Coil cartridges on the market. MC Verismo boasts of its precision, impact, and dynamics crafted through expertise in magnetism, mechanical design, and technologies. Its Titanium body made through the SLM technique provides superb internal damping. Ortofon’s Replicant 100 diamond stylus provides the most accurate reproduction, low distortion, and extended frequency range. The Diamond cantilever adds inner details, subtlety, and depth. Three contact points on top ensure perfect mechanical integration with the tonearm, offering greater dynamics, resolution, and detail. It also has optimized weight and moderate compliance to fit most modern tonearms.
