Brand: Ortofon

The Ortofon Concorde 30 is a high-performance moving magnet phono cartridge designed for use with turntables that have low output transformers or phono stages. With a sophisticated cantilever and ambitious coil winding technique, the Concorde 30 provides a natural and nuanced sound with a particular focus on detail and definition in the midrange frequencies. The cartridge's diamond cantilever and stylius with a thin diamond tip ensure accurate tracking and superb low-level detail retrieval, making it suitable for use with a wide range of* records, from vibrant and dynamic classical music to the most delicate and nuanced jazz and folk** recordings. Overall, the Ortofon Concorde 30 is a fine entry-level choice for those seeking exceptional musical realism from their analogue vinyl playback system.* Excluding heavily distorted or addressed records.** Tracking without damaging record surface urged.as the ello, concorde and stylus patterns form a cohesive product family with respect to design concept, design philosophy, production methods and top quality performance.the elegantly shaped aluminium housing is machined from a solid piece and surrounded by beautifully textured rubber to provide improved grip and anti-vibration properties.the cartridges are designed to fit conventional mounting templates and universal headshell systems.the fixed coil technology generates a low internal impedance resulting in a high tracking ability and reduced record wear.the thin and lightweight cantilever ensures accurate tracking in the low -high frequency range and the smallMore than half a century ago, Ortofon set out to develop a moving coil pick-up cartridge that met the high expectations of Gramophone enthusiasts. TheOrtofon MC Jubilee represented a true milestone in phono cartridge design and technology and set new standards for the industry. Borrowing heavily from this classic design, Ortofon continued to develop and produce true moving coil cartridges in the 1970's and 80's such as the Kontrapunkt, Cadenza, Cadenza Silver, Quintet, Master, Signet and Cadenza Bronze to name a few. With this experience Ortofon is proud to introduce a fresh group of moving magnet cartridges, that compliments the existing range ofTrue Moving Coil technology based cartridges.In accordance with our tradition, we dedicated particular attention to cutting edge industrial design and ergonomics in the development and production of the new moving magnet series.The elegant profiles of the aluminium housing in the SPU series are complemented by beautiful silky matt and glossy surfaces, giving the cartridges a distinctive appearance.Borrowing some of the fix coil technology developed for the Quintet moving coil cartridge, the moving magnet technology delivers an astonishingly pure, uncoloured and dynamic sound with exceptional detail and largescale presentation even at low volumes.Taking design inspiration from the extremely popular and highly acclaimed Quintet series, the new moving magnet range blends the classic Ortofon design elements with experiences from the moving coil developments over the past decades.With the new moving magnet cartridges, Ortofon once again provides a high-performance alternative to the discerning user at a moderate price.With the introduction of the OM series 1956 Ortofon entered a new era in the history of phono cartridges. A design where the stylus was integrated into the cantilever instead of mounted on top of it.The low trackings forces and light cantilever of the OM series enabled better and more precise tracking of the record grooves, resulting in vastly improved sound reproduction.The elegant pointer approach of the early 1960's evolved into the now famous spherical diamond shape that delivers uncompromised and detailed sound with astonishing dynamics and harmonic accuracy.The development of high output moving magnet cartridges like the Super OM and the T15 initiated a new era in Ortofon's design philosophy driven by new materials, manufacturing technology and innovation. These polished aluminium cartridges are designed to deliver the most natural and accurate sound reproduction in an affordable high output product category.With this experience Ortofon is proud to introduce a fresh group of high output moving magnet cartridges. The new SPU series represents a milestone in several respects. Through a strict limitation of the number of components, the design has been kept extremely simple. The simplified design has also allowed for an innovative approach encompassing unique elements of design, material and technology.The elegant profiles of the aluminium housing in the SPU series are complemented by beautiful silky matt and glossy surfaces giving the cartridges a distinctive appearance. The moving magnet elements are delicately closed in to produce an expected listening experience with exceptional low-level resolution exemplifying Ortofon's core competencies.The series concept of the new cartridges includes 3 different models that enable the user to choose between the jewel-like Shot, the contender Challenger or the increasingly popular Concorde.In accordance with our tradition, we dedicated particular attention to cutting edge industrial design and ergonomics in the development and production of the new moving magnet series.Borrowing some of the fix coil technology developed for the Quintet moving coil cartridge, the moving magnet technology delivers an astonishingly pure, uncoloured and dynamic sound with exceptional detail and largescale presentation even at low volumes.The Core series originated in the idea of creating a perfectly balanced and neutral playback result with suitable components, in close co-operation with leading turntable and phono stage manufacturers.The Core series is designed to meet several different wishlists for playback, and applicable to users across the wide scales of LP playback.The Ortofon Core series consists of five cartridges; three moving-magnet types and two moving-coil types. Each cartridge in the Core series present a specific playback picture best suiting your playback system and preference for musical style. Based on the passage above, How does the fixed coil technology in the Ortofon MC Jubilee and its successors influence the sound quality and tracking ability of moving magnet cartridges like the Concorde 30?
