About The Ortofon 2MR 78 Moving Magnet Cartridge

Journey back in time with the 2MR 78 Mono Cartridge, specially designed for playing 78 rpm shellac records on a the Rega Planar 78 Turntable. Immerse yourself in the authentic nostalgia of mono vinyl records brought to life with unparalleled precision and fidelity.

Stylus: The 2MR 78 features a stylus' tip with a Spherical diamond, perfect for playback of 78 rpm shellac records. These unique records necessitate a larger stylus profile, and the 2MR 78 flawlessly accommodates this requirement, ensuring optimal playback quality and preserving the authenticity of your cherished collection.

Output: The 2MR 78 uses a strapped output to deliver the same output signal from both sets of pole pins. This effectively eliminates the need for mono-specific equipment, making it possible to enjoy true mono reproduction on any stereo playback system.

Compatibility: The 2MR Series is specifically designed for easy mounting of the cartridge onto Rega turntables. 

The 2M Series are available in four different product variant configurations: the 2M for most common turntables on the market; the 2M Premounted, for customers who wish direct and easy mounting and replacement on their S-shaped tonearm; the 2M Verso, for bottom mount headshells; and the 2MR, which is designed cartridge housing tailored for turntables and tonearms like Rega, matching their requirement for low-form factor cartridges.
