The Ortofon MC X series represents a milestone in the evolution of modern MC cartridges. Designed to meet the highest sonic demands, it combines advanced technology, premium materials, and a precisely crafted design to set a new benchmark in high-end analog audio reproduction. At the heart of the series is an innovative stainless-steel housing with a honeycomb structure, produced using the MIM (Metal Injection Molding) process. This construction offers exceptional mechanical stability and provides the ideal conditions for distortion-free, highly accurate sound reproduction. A PVD surface treatment further enhances durability and gives the cartridge an elegant finish.
The MC X30 stands out with its nude fine-line diamond, capable of reproducing even the subtlest musical nuances with remarkable dynamics and resolution. Combined with pure silver wire coils, it delivers a sonic image of exceptional clarity and depth. A specially engineered magnet system with an integrated pole cylinder maximizes magnetic efficiency, while custom-made rubber dampers suppress unwanted resonances and ensure precise tracking. The result is superb tracking accuracy with minimal distortion.
The MC X series is also visually striking. Its minimalist housing blends technical refinement with timeless elegance, perfectly embodying the fusion of form and function. With the MC X series, Ortofon redefines analog perfection, delivering a listening experience that excels in both technical precision and musical expressiveness.
