Short description[edit]
The Ortofon 2M Red is the entry-level model of the Ortofon 2M series, a range of moving magnet (MM) cartridges. The system cannot be upgraded to the top-of-the-line Bronze and Black models by replacing the needle insert, due to a different generator. The systems' cabinet shape was designed by Moeller Jensen Design. The model was the facets of a polished diamond.
