Resultatet er et flott lydbilde som vil blåse nytt liv i platesamlingen din. MC Quintet Blue byr på mer rom, dybde og detaljer i musikken enn MC Quintet Red. Passer til de fleste typer musikk og kanskje spesielt rytmisk musikk. The Quintet Blue is a very homogeneous cartridge The Quintet Blue's sound image will tend to more smooth reproduction compared to Quintet Red and moderate dynamic strength compared to Quintet Bronze. It features a Nude Elliptical diamond mounted on an aluminium cantilever.The Quintet Blue will bring more space, depth and detail into the sound and is a very good choice for any kind of music, especially rhythmic. Ease of use Top-mounting of the Quintet cartridges is easy and secure using the screws supplied. The aluminuim frame has threaded mounting holes and is fitted easily with the 5mm or 7mm screws depending on the thickness of the headshell. The Quintet series’ right angles, straight lines, stylus visibility and ample distance between the record surface and the cartridge’s bottom will make it easy to mount and align the cartridge and tonearm correctly. The Quintet Series gives excellent results with most common tonearms. Hi-Fi Choice October 2014Reviewed and tested by Andrew Simpson Verdict: Superb sounding all-rounder that shows analogue at its best. Excellent value. "... It offers the most comprehensive and enjoyable performance with all music, showing Ortofon has clearly hit upon another magic formula......it presents all the detail in the track with real dymanism … its soundstage is expansive left to right…and it also possesses a greater talent for bringing instruments within it to life... …Each instrument gets the space to let its notes grow, which it knits together into a cohesive whole, revealing its measured and neutral presentation……Bass is well articulated and evenly presented without being overly emphasized or rolling off too early, making its presence and detail felt without becoming overwhelming on more demanding bass-heavy music."

Since 1948 Ortofon has introduced about 100 different Moving Coil models. We believe the cartridges in this new series are more than worthy successors to the long line of models that has made Ortofon the global leader in the manufacture and supply of phono cartridges. The MC Quintet Series is a direct result of our continued research and innovation The MC Quintet Series is congruent with Ortofon’s unrelenting commitment to providing the most precise and accurate reproduction possible without coloration: A special ABS (Acrylonitrile/Butadiene/Styrene) thermoplastic material is used for manufacturing of the body. This light-weight, impact resistant material is very suitable for injection-moulding and provides a very durable scratch resistant surface. Neodymium magnets are implemented to achieve an optimal output. Low internal impedance makes the cartridge less sensitive to load and therefore ensures compatibility with the widest range of preamps and transformers. It is our aim to bring our customers many hours of new and surprising experiences in listening to their precious vinyl collection. Each of the five Quintet Series cartridges has its own individual sonic expression, and all five models together represent the ensemble of five classic variations: MC Quintet Monois a true mono cartridge for playing mono microgroove vinyl records MC Quintet Redis an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic
