Ortofon MC Cadenza Red Moving Coil Cartridge – Ortofon

The Cadenza Red model is using a nude fine line stylus with a cylindrical aluminum cantilever. The stylus tip radius is r/R 8/40 µm. The coils are made from 6NX (99.9999%) pure silver wire. An improved winding process on the armature allows a better channel balance. The sound picture of Cadenza Red is more relaxed, homogeneous and moderately dynamic in the perspective compared to the Cadenza Blue and has great space and depth in the stereo image.
