Ortofon MC1 Turbo Moving Coil Cartridge

Ortofon's high output and high-quality MC-1 Turbo cartridge is the company's entry-level moving coil model, designed with an elliptical stylus profile. The cartridge has a 3.3mV output. This makes it ideal to use with inbuilt phono preamplifiers, especially ones designed for MM cartridges. The MC1 Turbo provides a linear and precise moving coil performance and doesn't require additional high-gain preamplifiers or transformers.
