Ortofon Super OM 5E Elliptical Stylus Cartridge
The Super OM 5E features improved lineraty, higher channel seperation, and an Elliptical stylus that provides balanced and distortion-free playback. The Elliptical diamonds are able to follow the groove oscillations more accurately than spherical diamonds due to their contoured shape. This results in better tracking and less distortion.
