Key Features

  • An improved engine, which provides an increased output of 5.5 mV and an optimised sound reproduction and a high level of sonic accuracy.
  • A tipped Elliptical diamond and split pole pins with a copper wire.
  • The cartridge body is manufactured from Hopelex, an environment-friendly material which ensures high rigidity while eliminating unwanted resonances.

Ortofon has optimised the design for ease of mounting the cartridge, and the weight and size to fit the most common turntables on the market today. The 2M Series provides excellent compatibility when used in an assortment of playback systems and with a wide variety of phono preamps.2M Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth.

The 2M Series is Designed for Precise and Accurate Retrieval of the Information in the Record Groove

The 2M Series is developed in conjunction with the Danish Industrial designer Møller Jensen Design – the same designer who designed the award winning MC Jubilee and Kontrapunkt series. Inspired by the facets of a diamond, whose contours gracefully trace the grooves on a record’s surface, the 2M’s handsome elegance establishes a great combination of form and functionality.

The name 2M was selected from among several ideas. We wanted a modern name that would be easy to pronounce and remember, and therefore an alphanumerical name was chosen. 2M means MM, which is the abbreviation for moving magnet.

Of course the 2M isn’t just another pretty face. It has been engineered to the highest standards and is congruent with Ortofon’s unrelenting commitment to providing the most precise and accurate reproduction possible without coloration.

Summary of the five classic variations of 2M Cartridges:

  • 2M Mono SE, 2M Mono and 2M 78 are a true mono cartridges for playing mono vinyl records
  • 2M Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth
  • 2M Blue adds more dynamics and resolution, sounds more open and reproduces more details
  • 2M Bronze adds even more details and resolution but in a very even handed way that pays respect to all elements
  • 2M Black is the best of everything, true to the groove with resolution and accurate insight into each recording

The 2M series of cartridges features Ortofon’s trademark split pole pins, an invention that enables moving magnet cartridges to have a flat frequency response, as with a moving coil cartridge. Split pole pins were invented by Ortofon, and were originally presented in the 500 series and OM Super series.

We have optimised the design for ease of mounting the cartridge, and the weight and size to fit the most common turntables on the market today. The 2M Series provides excellent compatibility when used in an assortment of playback systems and with a wide variety of phono preamps.

Incorrect filter size despite listed compatibility
I bought this kit specifically because the listing clearly states that it is compatible with my Xiaomi robot vacuum. Before purchasing, I double-checked all the specifications. However, when the product arrived, I discovered that the internal filter is smaller than the original one and does not fit correctly. This makes the filter unusable for my vacuum. The seller should update the compatibility information because it is misleading for buyers.

Great quality dust bags – perfect fit for my eufy robot vacuum!
Size: C10 / C20 Bags
These dust bags are exactly what I needed for my eufy Omni C20! They fit perfectly, install easily, and the 3-layer design really does help control dust and odors. The large 3.6L capacity means I don’t have to change them too often, even with daily vacuuming. Great value for the price, and the quality feels just as good as the original eufy bags.

Fits Eufy Vaccum

Does fit my basic self emptying Eufy. Have to move it around a bit to get it to recognize the bag, but it does fit!
