This is an Ortofon 2M Silver Replacement Stylus for the Ortofon 2M Silver phono cartridge, an OEM-model that takes most of the characteristics of the 2M Red cartridge. The 2M Silver’s special feature is silver plated copper coils, the same coil wire material as in the 2M Bronze and 2M Black models, with a reduced number of windings.
Stylus fits on other models in the Ortofon 2M range
Replacement stylus
This product is a replacement stylus for the 2M Silver cartridge that is provided as standard on various Pro-Ject turntables. Additionally, this cartridge itself is not available for purchase from Ortofon.
2M Silver will be an upgrade compared to 2M Red due to a special rubber suspension and silver-plated copper wire material.
The 2M range of moving magnet cartridge have been an absolute revelation since their introduction. From the introductory 2M Red up to the flagship 2M Black, and later with dedicated 78 RPM and Mono versions, they have moved MM technology on to new levels.
Late 2013 has seen a new model added to the family, initially released as a special cartridge on certain Pro-Ject turntables (originally the Xpression Carbon). The 2M Silver takes all the characteristics of the most recognised 2M cartridge, the 2M Red, and adds silver spools to the cartridge body; resulting in a new level of sound performance.
By using silver spools in the generator system, the 2M Silver can provide optimal signal generation – giving your records the best possible chance of sounding great.
