Rediscover the joy of vinyl records with the Ortofon OM 5E cartridge, a product that promises balanced and distortion-free playback for a general-purpose audience. Whether your tonearm has a standard headshell or a cartridge mount, the OM 5E is designed to elevate your sound reproduction experience. The cartridge features an elliptical stylus that ensures balanced and distortion-free playback, capable of following groove oscillations more accurately than spherical diamonds due to its contoured shape. This results in better tracking and less distortion, promising an immersive auditory experience.

- Optimal Fit and Sound Reproduction: The cartridge offers an optimal fit and sound reproduction, adapting seamlessly to both standard and low mass tonearms.
- Easy Interchangeability: The OM 5E allows for easy interchangeability with a wide range of replacement styli, offering an opportunity to optimize sound reproduction without replacing the entire cartridge.
- Easy Installation: The OM 5E is designed for easy mounting and alignment on both top mount and bottom mount headshells, promising compatibility with a wide variety of phono preamps and playback systems.
