I can imagine an audiophile CZcamsr making this a 15 min video
Approximately how long should we expect the life of the dampening rubber inside the cartridge?
I bought music blue today can’t wait to use it
I have 15 of the Ortofon 2 m Red and this is the best cartridge that I have ever used I love the bass and high end that this cartridge delivers I also have 1 blue great sounding thank you for making these cartridges
How make clutch leather for motorcycle
Bought the music red and can't wait to test it! I'm curious about the audible difference to the vibe that I've been using for some years now on my RP 2000MK2.
There are still NO REVIEW VIDEOS on this, although it’s now 2 months on the market. This is very strange, given the “hi-profile launch of an apparently hi-profile (premium priced) product”. A direct head-to-head with the 2M-blue would be very much appreciated.
Good evening. I just bought the concord music blue. I would like to ask approximately after how many hours of operation the stylus needs to be changed?
Question i have a ortofon 5e cartridge can i put an om20 or om30 stylus on that cartridge . I'm led to believe you can ?
Nice combo! What beat is that?
An absolutely spot on informative video having several ortofon cartridges i shall be going through them all
How is the inner groove distortion on the bronze compared to the blue? Thanks!
It's funny that you spoke how close you can get to the cutting needle in shape before it starts to destroy the groove/ vinyl because that question arrived for me at just that moment.
This is a great video
i'm loving my debut carbon pro, BUT they should come with extra head shell plugs. these wires are so tiny you are going to break them off at the lug ! of course when going to try fit my Ortofon Bronze, the last wire i went to put on i broke the wire at the lug. so now i'm here with a nearly $700 new stylus that i can't try because i have no replacement plug and finding it difficult to find online
Will these work on the fluance RT85?
I don't see why they wouldn't, it's meant as a plug-in for a standard s-shaped tone arm, how are you I would double check the arm geometry between the rt85 and a Technics SL 1200 just to be sure. But my two cents would be that it would be compatible mechanically, but sonically it should present no problems
Es normal que la parte blanca tenga movimiento? Es decir cómo si estuviera floja o así es el modelo.
My last moving coil was an Ortofon Rohmann cart, many years ago the diamond tip simply fell off its arm, nothing wrong anywhere else, it simply seemed to unbond and get lost. As Ortofon do not do cost effective service work on old carts like my Rohmann it's sat unused, with my record player, for over a decade, collecting dust on a shelf.
Where can I get p mount Ortofon stuff like an OMP10 or 20 Cartridge, and then a 20 or 30 stylus. Seems to be much confusion in the market about p mount and manufacturers current level of support. I think I will buy only p mount and use adapter's for different mountings / tonearms to avoid this incompatibility going forward. Thanks.
I'm old school, Shure V-15 matched to a removable head shell. I like being able to do the cartridge installation off the arm, and with the stylus removed. Also, how do you replace the stylus on this cartridge, if it doesn't come off?
Holy crap, these cuts are super smooth and clean! Excellent setup by the way, those turntables and that mixer are super good!
Nice
Quiz: Why is the turntable not in its traditional position?
I have the new Ortofon 2MR black on my RP8
When I was DJing in the 70s and 80s (Disco era), I never acted like an idiot, and received a lot of respect.
What’s the main difference between bronze and black ?
I have Ortofon 2M black the best MM on the market
Bronze is much better
I can imagine how good this would sound. One day if I win the lottery I will have one :D
I always use concorde. From 80 to now ,im a pro deejay and i try whith all the companies and models,ortofon the best
It looks like you bent the cantilever
Well, sometimes 0,05 gr makes a difference, perhaps not on this cartridge…quite a generic setup info but good for those not knowing...
Over the years , I have learned. 1/ Don't bother with Mc cartridges, too delicate and involves special phono stage 2/ Detachable headshell is much easier to deal with 3/ Accept with a new cartridge that for approx 40 hours , it will sound strained 4/ A magic eraser sponge dragged back to front gently is the best way to clean a stylus 5/ Do not wet clean records, just use a dust brush 6/ when it comes to 2nd hand records , do not buy them if they have grease or gunk on them. Check vinyl with spotlight for scratches or warps 7/ Tracking too light is not good but go by listening 8/ Set up of record deck , quality of deck, phono stage is important 9 Vinyl can be a lot of hassle , thank goodness cd was invented
You did well to subtitle your demonstration, so that we can see absolutely nothing of what you're doing... 😁
So ein Quatsch🤦♂ Als ob das so einfach wäre. Dieses Video ist nicht zum empfehlen.
The biggest problem I have in setting up cartridges is avoiding wiping out the stylus.
What mixer is that?
You should use old cheap waste cartridge to demonstrate What a waste!
Very informative video. Thank you! One thing that might have been mentioned is that small magnet, big coil, and big magnet, small coil, generate a similar amount of POWER, so that the much much lower impedance of the moving coil cartridge, when stepped up with a transformer, actually provides a similar voltage into a 47k ohm load to that of a moving magnet pickup.
Can i upgrade to 2M black LVB 250 ?
Nice deck!! Personally I'd have to sit down. I passed up a Thorens TD 125 w/ an SME 3009 arm for 400 bucks just because it had the fixed head shell. I am still kicking my self in the ass. What an incredible video. All said, is there any wonder why C.D.s became so popular with the "Mass Listeners"...?
I own 4 2m Red and 1 2m Blue they are really good stylus Some day I would like to get a 2m Black
The best that i buy its fantastic
My next upgrade from the $50 one I originally got with my turntable
i almost got tricked and thought that he was using both hands to cut.... i was about to say sickening... but his style is flowy and smooth so i still have to say sickening lol
Very interesting video. I really appreciate your effort.
Very interesting/informative, i see you have vanilla fudge debut lp on your wall , what a great lp that was .
I’m watching the video at approximately 26.25 minutes. Can you or someone explain how the needle gets dragged to the center of the record? Is there some force in the tonearm itself moving the arm towards the middle of the record? or is it the needle sitting in the groove and the spiraling affect of the groove is actually pushing the needle towards the center, not dragging.
Spending so much needless time in setting the VTA when records are cut different and you need to voice or tune with real instruments such as strings. Moreover look at how he handles records... Careless!!
Thank You. I have a Ortofon 2M Blue. My Azimuth needs adjustment. Without a mirror I can see it's off. Love the suggestion of using shims to get it right if needed. What is important is to get that needle perpendicular, going into the groove straight. I'll work on it.
Habe mir das Blue bestellt ;) kann ich den Finger Lift von meinem Clup mk 2 auf das Music montieren ? Kommen da noch farbliche Ersatzteile ?
