Description
The new cartridge models
We found the name "Scratch" to the suitable for a new Orofon cartridge, doing this kind of job. The stylus unit as well as the cartridge body are made from a florescent neon-red material, which makes the complete cartridge highly apparent in spot light and luminous in ultra-violet light.
The Scratch cartridge is available in either the Ortofon OM version for mounting in standard head shells, or in the integrated Ortofon Concorde design for direct mounting in the tonearms with standard sockets. Bother versions can also be supplied in a convenient Box Set, with two extra stylus units, for practical protection and transportation.
