MC 20 Super reintroduction

Description: The classic cartridge, which was first introduced 25 years ago, has been recognized as one of the first MC-cartridges that combined a relatively high compliance with a smooth, and yet extended frequency response.

The MC 20 Super mounted on the supplied headshell will allow a correct alignment on the Ortofon tonearm series with standard headshell connector.

The MC 20 Super can also be used on most tonearms with fixed headshell.
