Parameters and specifics

Ortofon Cadenza Red is a unique product in its category. This type of transducer is functional in the frequency range 20 - 50 000 Hz with an internal impedance, DC resistance of 5 Ohm. The recommended load is 50 - 500 Ohm. The tip radius of the Nude fine line is r/R 8/40. The range of contact force is 2.2 - 2.7 g (22 - 27 mN), with a recommended contact force of 2.5 g (25 mN). The viewing angle is 20˚. Due to the good sound of the products, Ortofon is one of the products on the market that rarely disappoint its user community.

MC technology

MC, or Moving Coil, which stands for Moving Coil System, is not widely used, but it is very special. Its specificity lies in the fact that the shaker activates a small set of coils that are made of special materials. For this reason, the weight of the product is much lower than that of MM moving magnet transmissions. Transmission systems are relatively complex devices, which is mainly related to the cost of their manufacture. For example, the replacement of the shaker with the tip is also technically a complex act.

Certainty of origin

An interesting feature and advantage of Ortofon transmissions is the proof of their originality; the origin of all the company's products is documented in the form of certification strips that determine the authenticity of each component. At the same time, this certification also includes a three-year warranty period, an offer of after-sales service and manufacturer support. Any confusion with non-original products or parts is completely excluded, which is why the certification check is evaluated and accepted positively by the public.

A look into the history

Every country, company, product, concept and even name has a history. The tradition and roots of Ortofon's manufacturing and production company come from Denmark, where in 1918 thein 1918, a fledgling company with a focus on film sound production. In 1948, the company launched one of its first moving coil transmissions, followed by a larger variety of transmission types. Ortofon's goal and corporate philosophy is to produce quality goods that, in addition to being based on the latest technology, materials and processes, are also in high demand.
