How it works:

The Ortofon 2M Blue Premounted comes ready on the SH-4 headshell. Simply attach it to your S-shaped tonearm with the locking collar. The stylus makes contact with the record grooves, converting mechanical vibrations into electrical signals, which are sent to your phono stage or amplifier. The nude elliptical stylus design allows for more accurate groove tracing, resulting in higher detail retrieval, better clarity, and improved dynamic range across all frequencies.
