A True Mono by Ortofon
Includes the Nude Elliptical r / R 8 / 18µm stylus pen, a good solution for playing mono micro-groove vinyl records. Quintet Mono will perfectly track even worn and damaged recordings and provide surface noise control.
Quintet Mono uses a striped output to transmit the same output signal from both sets of pole pins. This effectively eliminates the need for mono-specific equipment, making it possible to enjoy true mono reproduction on any stereo playback system.
Ease of use
Top mounting of Quintet cartridges is easy and fixed with the supplied screws. The aluminum frame has threaded mounting holes and is easily attached with 5mm or 7mm screws, depending on the thickness of the head.
The Quintet series’ right angles, straight lines, pen visibility, and wide distance between the recording surface and the bottom of the cartridge will facilitate correct insertion and alignment of the cartridge and sleeve. Quintet Series delivers excellent results with the most common tonears.
Five Story
Nothing demonstrates Ortofon’s longstanding resilience more than its commitment to improving analog sound quality and the continuous development of new cartridge models. Since 1948 Ortofon has released around 100 different Moving Coil models. We believe that the cartridges in this new series are much more than the successors to the long model line that has made Ortofon the world leader in the manufacture and supply of phono cartridges.
The MC Quintet Series is the direct result of our continuous research and innovation
The MC Quintet Series is in line with Ortofon’s relentless commitment to providing the most precise and accurate reproduction possible without colouring:
Special ABS (Acrylonitrile / Butadiene / Styrene) thermoplastic material is used for body manufacturing. This lightweight, impact resistant material is well suited for injection molding and provides a very durable, scratch resistant surface.
Neodymium magnets are applied 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.
Our aim is to provide our customers with hours of new and surprising experiences while listening to their precious record collections.
