With the 2M Red you will hear the music come to life on its own terms. It is like taking a step into the music itself. The 2M Red delivers an open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth. This is Ortofon's entry-level cartridge in the series, but what an entry. The 2M Series is designed for easy cartridge mounting, weight, and size to fit the most common turntables today. The 2M Series are available in four different product variant configurations: the 2M for most common turntables on the market; the 2M Premounted, for customers who wish direct and easy mounting and replacement on their S-shaped tonearm; the 2M Verso, for bottom mount headshells; and the 2MR, which is designed cartridge housing tailored for turntables and tonearms like Rega, matching their requirement for low-form factor cartridges.
