ORTOFON OM-3E OM 3E OM3E CARTRIDGE

"The Ortofon OM3E outperforms the Ortofon 2M Red by a wide margin on my system to which I owe you very many thanks. In addition, the token of quality inspection as per shipping document makes me feeling good."
- TO, customer from Japan

The Ortofon OM3E OM 3E phono cartridge is the least expensive cartridge that Ortofon offers. It uses the same high performance cartridge body as its sibling up the line and it comes with a special elliptical diamond stylus. As in other Ortofon OM series cartridges, it portrays music naturally across the frequency spectrum.

And when its time for you to seek more discernment, you can easily upgrade to a higher level of performance by simply replacing the stylus to a Stylus 5E, 10, 20, 30 and 40. You can enjoy music now and even further later on when you choose to.

The little stylus that could..and then some!

When I got this I thought I had overspent and had just paid 150 bucks for the 70 dollar model with a stylus guard. I was hoping for the best, expecting mehh, and got the closest to sonic nirvana I've yet to experience! I am simply a music lover, I haven't the experience or the budget to be an audiophile , but wow this little cartridge can sing! I have the carbon fidelity, the nss divine, this is noticeably better even to my untrained ears. If you are using the at3600 cartridge, strongly consider this stylus before you change to a different cartridge. It really is that good!

New Belt

Turntable belt fits perfectly as described!

Stylus for Soundesign 6821 turntable
Glenn Baber (Dayton, US)
Soundesign stylus Mdel 6821

Stylus fit, the weight was light i ended up having to use a similar stylus that was heavier and for an Emerson.
The lighter stylus allowed the arm to float across the album.

Works good

D51 type stylus works fine

Looks & Sounds like the Original

Arrived well packed although I was concerned that it didn’t have the little cover over the needle that a new stylus often has. But once installed it sounded good!

Thorens Replacement Belt

Belt is more robust than old belt. Highly recommended.

Giant Killer

If you have an OM body, base or Super, you owe it to yourself to get this stylus. It plays WAY above its price range! I am still breaking it in, but wow! On new vinyl it is dead quiet. No pops, background noise or hisses. Plays music from top to bottom without me missing any midrange.
I have 3 different versions of these, shure n75ed2, at 3600l, now this ortofon version which could become my favorite. Buy these and get a good phono stage ( I am using an old nad 7140) and stop worrying about expensive cartridges! An absolute jem!
