About the Ortofon OM10 Stylus - upgrade from OM5E

Product Description

Joining Ortofon's series of high performance styluses is the Ortofon Stylus 10 - a replacement stylus for cartridges like the Super OM 10, Concorde 10 and a natural upgrade for turntables that came equipped with the OM5E cartridge and stylus.

The elliptical stylus for the Super OM series (Super OM 10) has a cut-out nose, which makes it easy to cue on the correct groove of record from where the playback will begin. The elliptical stylus has an added advantage that it can follow the groove oscillations with greater precision than the conventional stylus. It also helps in minimizing the distortion and phase error caused during recording.
