Since 1953, Ortofon has been designing tonearms with the philosophy of combining craftsmanship and technology.
All parts and every component of the tonearms have been upgraded with material meticulously chosen to minimize unwanted vibration and distortion, ensuring crisp clear, and accurate sound. Careful attention to precision and durability of every part and assembly in both models ensures lasting durability for years to come.
