Project Headshells

LH-2000 Headshell

The LH-2000 is a basic high-quality headshell designed specifically for HiFi applications. Providing a clean, minimalist aesthetic, the LH-2000 is great for a wide variety of cartridges.

LH-4000 Headshell

The LH-4000 is a basic, high-quality headshell designed specifically for HiFi applications. Providing a clean, minimalist aesthetic, the LH-4000 is great for a wide variety of cartridges, especially recommended for the MC Quintet series.

The LH-4000 comes with lead wires for easy and convenient connection. All Ortofon cartridges have a colour coding of the terminals, indicating red and green for right channel hot and ground terminals and white and blue for left channel hot and ground terminals, respectively. The green terminal will always be used for grounding the cartridge housings or motor system whenever connected to the cartridge.

We recommend that you connect the lead wires to the cartridge and headshell before mounting the cartridge on the headshell, as this is much easier than fitting once in place.

Please remember to correct the orientation of the leads. Ortofon cartridges' terminal PINS diameter is 1.2 mm, whilst Ortofon headshells' PINS diameter is only 1.0 mm. These figures are stamped onto the cable connectors.

LH-6000 Headshell

The LH-6000 is a high-quality headshell designed specifically for the Kontrapunkt series, Jubilee, MC Windfeld and Cadenza Series cartridges. Its rounded front portion facilitates proper mounting and complements each of these cartridges.

SH-4 Headshell

The Ortofon SH-4 headshell is the perfect match for the Ortofon 2M Series cartridges, though the universal fittings mean almost any cartridge can be fitted.

Who is Project?

Project started in the hifi business designing and manufacturing affordable stereo turntables in the early 1990s, beginning with the entry-level Debut model. It was a great success, as all other turntables on the market at that time were at least £100 more expensive, without offering a performance benefit. Project has gone on to extend the range of turntables they offer at all popular price points and performance levels, through midrange to high-end models.
