Ortofon OM3E OM 3E Phono 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.
