Product Description

Ortofon DJ

Ortofon Concorde MK2 DJ

Excellent Groove Handling

The Concorde DJ is considered the jack-of-all-trades, boasting accurate sound reproduction and excellent groove handling.

• The DJ is great for any style of music. • It has a spherical stylus and an extremely balanced cantilever that provides outstanding rigidity. • Not only does the cartridge have a most sufficient tracking ability, it also provides the DJs with the most needed stringency and very low record wear.

All in all: improved tracking, alongside of accurate sound reproduction and an excellent groove handling.

How to replace a stylus

Firstly lock the turntable tone arm, unscrew the cartridge, gently remove the stylus from the cartridge and insert a new stylus. A stylus is changed usually by pulling straight out and in the opposite direction of the turntable's arm. If the stylus doesn't come with directions, try these: with one hand, hold the cartridge to steady it. With the other hand, using a pair of tweezers, grasp the stylus from both sides and pull. Install the new stylus: holding the stylus from the top, press it gently into the space at the tip of the cartridge where the old stylus had been. Don't force it.

Proper care comprises of the following:

Cleaning of record by means of carbon fibre brush before and after every use. Cleaning of record by using record cleaning machine once in a while.

Cleaning of stylus by means of a fine antistatic brush. Please remember to remove dust from the diamond tip before and after playback of each record. Use the brush in the forward direction from the rear of the cartridge towards the stylus tip and never from stylus tip to the rear of the cartridge and never from side to side.

Proper adjustment of antiskating, azimuth and tracking force.

Options and Replacement Styli

The Concorde MK2 Series is available for purchase as either a single cartridge or a "Twin" set including two cartridges (both with pre-installed styli) and an aluminum flight case.

Replacement styli for all the Concorde MK2 series retains the cartridges name for easily finding your direct replacement.

Example:

Cartridge: Concorde MK2 Mix

Replacement Styli: Stylus MK2 Mix

Es la primera vez que compro algo de la línea concorde, pero no la primera ortofon que tengo, cumple muy bien con las espectativas de calidad.Se ve sexy y trabaja muy bien, escogí la de DJ porque podrían tener un uso un poco más de batalla sin comprometer la señal y si, suena bastante bien, es fácil distinguir instrumentos y profundidades, a pesar de tener la posibilidad de scratchear, no se si lo haría, tal vez compraría otra en específico para ese propósito, escuchar en esta concorde no es para nada despreciable.Algo muy a favor del diseño de este fonocaptor, solo necesitas conectar y graduar su peso, si tienes manos grandes, agradeces mucho no batallar con el ajuste del cabezal, ya montado en el brazo y escuchando, me hace pensar en algún momento saltar a una gama más alta de concorde, es demasiado fácil y entrega una calidad de Audio muy buena.El peso sugerido es de 4 gramos, no me extraña para nada por el tipo de punta, en mi caso solo gradué la altura del brazo hasta que quedó totalmente horizontal con los 4 gramos exactos, al menos a mi oído no siento que necesite más o menos peso.

No mention of the rubber washer. Trouble shooting lack of output for half hour before finding it on the floor. Displaced during shipping? Anyway, very first impression: FasterUpdate: More fun than Red. Red feels honest

Surprising how well this sounds for the price. A little bass heavy for the overall sound signature. But don’t we all like a little extra bass?

I wanted to try a concorde style cartridge, and have been very happy with this guy. Bass is clear but punchy and to my ear the mid to high end still sounds great. Its nice to be able to have fun and experiment once in a while with scratching/backcueing, but also to have a great listening stylus for my bass heavy musicMy only real complaint is the finger lift feels a bit akward being flat. But im sure ill get used to it in timeEDIT:after a year or so of use, i must say this continues to be one of my favorite cartridges (second only to my grado dj200i)The flat finger lift also has been nice for my technics turntable aswell, letting me use a great cartridge on a automatic turntable
