Ortofon MC X30 Moving Coil Cartridge

Ortofon MC X30 Moving Coil Cartridge

Ortofon MC X Series

In the world of vinyl playback, the cartridge is where the journey begins. A pivotal point where music rises from the groove and transforms into immersive soundscapes. With the MC X Series, Ortofon sets a new benchmark in MC cartridge design, pushing premium Moving Coil technology to unprecedented levels of performance.

Pure Silver Coil System

All Ortofon MC X Series cartridges feature coils would with high-purity silver wire. The use of premium materials is to ensure exceptional signal clarity, delivering sound with unmatched precision and preserving every detail without interference. 

MIM-Moulded honeycomb-structured Core

At the core of the Ortofon MC X series is an advanced honeycomb-structured stainless-steel frame, created using Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) technology. This refined construction ensures superior mechanical stability, providing an ideal foundation for precise and accurate sound reproduction. After moulding and sintering, a Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) surface treatment is applied to enhance surface appearance and maintain material integrity over time. 

Optimised Magnet System

The Ortofon MC X Series introduces a newly developed magnet system with a one-piece pole cylinder integrated into a rear magnet yoke. Engineered for maximum magnetic efficiency and paired with pure silver coils, this configuration ensures a clean, powerful signal path that elevates overall performance.

Custom-Developed Rubber Dampers

In-house produced and developed rubber compounds form the core of the Ortofon MC X Series' mechanical damping system. Rubber dampers are essential for controlling the physical movement of the coils, maintaining stability, minimising unwanted vibrations, and enabling precise coil motion. The result is superior tracking, reduced distortion, and musical accuracy. 

The Shape of Sound

The Ortofon MC X Series embodies modern elegance with a distinctive design that seamlessly complements the tonearm. From afar, its silhouette speaks of minimalist refinement; up close, its intricate detailing reveals craftsmanship at every level. True to Ortofon's signature aesthetic, it's a sophisticated fusion of form and function.
