MM phono cartridge for turntables
Beautiful design and superior sound!
The Pro-Ject Pick it S2 MM is manufactured by the cartridge experts at Ortofon and voiced by the design team at Pro-Ject. It is equipped with a special elliptical stylus tip. It provides detailed sound reproduction and expansive imaging. It is a no-nonsense performer with fascinating musical resources. Attached to a strong cantilever, used in DJ cartridges, this cartridge will not just sound great, it is also very strong.
The cartridge is made from a unique combination of technologies. Among others Ortofon‘s well known split pole pins. This enables it to have a flat frequency response, which compares with MC cartridges. The superior treble output provides a dynamic and warm sound.
Inspired by the diamond found on the stylus, the Pick it S2 MM is a beautiful design featuring a new and unique semi-transparent grey colour. It goes perfectly with most Pro-Ject record players.
