Ortofon OM5E OM 5E Phono Cartridge
The Ortofon OM5E OM 5E 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 10, 20, 30 and 40. You can enjoy music now and even further later on when you choose to.
