2M series are designed for precise and accurate
retrieval of the information in the record groove. Our philosophy
is to play the record sound as accurate as possible, without coloring
the sound.
The name 2M was selected among several ideas. We wanted a modern
name that would be easy to pronounce and to remember, and therefore
an alpha numerical name was chosen. 2M means MM, which is the abbreviation
for moving magnet.
We have optimized the design for ease of mounting the cartridge,
weight and size to fit the most common turntables at the market
today.
The 2M black is graced with a Shibata diamond stylus the
same diamond as on the acclaimed MC Jubilee. Its slim, highly polished
profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the groove walls
and ensures notably detailed reproduction throughout the spectrum,
including even the most high frequency groove information.
The cartridge body used for the 2M Black is manufactured from a
newly-developed Lexan DMX Piano Black, a revolutionary material
which ensures high rigidity while eliminating unwanted resonances.
The 2M Black uses a special upgraded engine, featuring split pole
pins with a silver plated copper wire.
Users of the 2M Black will enjoy the benefit of impeccable sound
quality, along with reduced record & stylus wear and reduced
distortion and phase error as a result of the diamonds improved
tracking geometry.
