ORTOFON - 2MR Black LVB 250 MM Phono Cartridge

This MM Phono Cartridge Takes Music Very Seriously: Ortofon 2MR Black LVB 250 Has Shibata Diamond Stylus, Seamlessly Interfaces with Rega Setups
The small headshot on the face of the Ortofon 2MR Black LVB 250 is immediately recognizable and the deserved namesake of this superb MM cartridge: Ludwig van Beethoven. Badged to celebrate the anniversary of the composer's 250th birth, 2MR Black LVB 250 takes music, sound, and details as seriously as the iconic composer.
Employing a nude Shibata diamond on a boron cantilever, the same combination as Ortofon's MC Cadenza Black, 2MR Black LVB 250 delivers several instant benefits. Namely, owing to the stylus' slim, highly polished profile, it registers an extremely wide contact area to LP groove walls and ensures remarkable reproduction throughout the frequency spectrum. The addition of boron translates to stiffness while retaining a light weight, allowing for audiophile-grade levels of transparency, speed, and responsiveness.
Notably, 2MR Black LVB 250 implements a rubber compound for the suspension, a trait that helps the cartridge attain optimal interaction between compliance and damping. Based on the Multi Wall Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNT) nano filler, it offers desirable mechanical properties that ensure superb damping.
Built with a specially designed narrow cartridge housing tailored for Rega turntables and tonearms that require low form-factor cartridges, Ortofon 2MR Black LVB 250 seamlessly integrates with Rega platforms without any need for modifications or spacers under the tonearm. Best of all, it retains every performance and material characteristic of the original, highly acclaimed 2M Black LVB 250. Plus, it is compatible with Ortofon 2M replacement styli and mounts easily and quickly, via two screws.
