Ortofon MC X50 – High-End MC Cartridge

The Ortofon MC X50 is the flagship model of the new MC X series and has been developed for discerning vinyl enthusiasts. The high-quality moving coil cartridge combines a nude Micro Ridge stylus with a precise boron cantilever. As a result, the MC X50 achieves exceptionally accurate tracking, outstanding high-frequency reproduction, and very low distortion – especially during demanding passages on the inner grooves of the record.

The high-purity silver wire coils and the newly developed magnet system ensure high signal purity and precise, detailed reproduction. A damping system developed specifically for the MC X50 supports controlled and stable tracking.

With its combination of high resolution, precise dynamics, and excellent tracking, the Ortofon MC X50 is an excellent choice for high-end analog turntable and phono setups.
