Ortofon Concorde DJS Cartridge

Concorde DJS Cartridge description:

The Ortofon Concorde DJS is the most popular cartridge in the ortofon range giving excellent all-round performance under a variety of conditions.

The Ortofon Concorde DJS cartridge combines the unrivalled Ortofon sound quality with the ruggedness that is a must for professional use. Scratching and back-cueing impose heavy mechanical stress on the cantilever and its rubber bearing. Therefore, the Ortofon disco cartridges are equipped with cantilevers made from aluminum tube with increased wall thickness. Special attention has also been paid to the attachment of the bearing and the design of the bearing itself. This means that rough treatment will neither damage the cartridge nor degrade its stability.
