OrtofonConcorde MK2 Mix Twin Cartridge

100 percent happy. You can not go wrong with Ortofon. They've got their products down to a science. I have had different pairs in the past, including the 'Club', and 'Dj' series, and they continue to shine with the 'Mix' series. They sound beautiful. Very clear and detailed. I am still in the process of breaking them in (20 hours+ is the recommendation) and if they sound this good now, I know I am in for a real treat.Build construction is top notch. Ortofon has upgraded the lever, and its also replaceable.After I have had some more time with these, I will add a better review of them.

Been on the SHURE thing since 1988. Picked up a pair of these to play open format sets in a bar through a sub-par sound system, they sound pretty damn good through all types and condition of records. Love seeing the stylus. Not saying they are as steady as some 44s but for the price and availability I am sold.,

Perfect for vinyl DJ's - Love the convenient & sturdy, protective carrying case, and even a little cleaning brush. Needles are good quality, looking forward to using these for many years to come.

Great needles.

The media could not be loaded. I like everything about it. Sounds good looks good price was good. Set up was easy. Came in half the time it said so that's good too. Had it for a few days and compared to using an old Pioneer home receiver with 2 indoor outdoor speakers to thus interface and my 2 LTO monitors is night and day difference

I can finally break out my old tables and listen to all this vinyl I have been dragging around. It comes with an awesome travel kit and cleaning brush.

I purchased these to replace some 10 year old ortofons. First use was a very quick session to confirm all my equipment still worked and so I didn’t pay attention to the output level on my mixer. On second use I noticed I didn’t have sound on one side of my headphones. Initially I thought it was a problem with my mixer… until I noticed that the output level was way low on the side that worked. I swapped the cartridge for one of my older ones, which provided full output on both channels. I’m not sure what has happened to Ortofon, but brand new cartridge/stylus pairs should not fail out of the box

Don’t buy these. Spend a little more money and get the next cartridge in the series the blue DJ ones. They sound and track way better. I was shocked when I heard them side by side.
