Product Info

ORTOFON Super OM40 OM-40 OM 40 PHONO CARTRIDGE

The OM 40 is the best cartridge within the Super OM series - and some say the best moving magnet cartridge made by Ortofon. With its Fritz Gyger stylus, it resolves the grooves with celestial eloquence, clarity and grace. Its classic Ortofon performance and highly regarded musicality rival the high energy sound of the best 2M series.

“I wish that made this purchase before trying 2M Blue, could have saved a little money and the Ortofon OM 40
sounds just the same if not better.”

“Great value”

“Sounds great right out of the shrink wrap. I like this product better than the Nag MP-300: cleaner, flatter. I get closer to the music.”
Superb musicality
October 21, 2017 by Calmiester
“I purchased a Super OM40 about 3 months ago and am totally amazed by the detail and musical presence that I am hearing! The highs are silky smooth, bass is incredibly deep and full and the entire audio spectrum is reproduced with ease and a sense of being in the room with the artist I’m listening to. You can listen to vinyl for hours on end with absolutely no fatigue and only complete satisfaction of the listening experience. I highly recommend this cartridge and can’t imagine owning anything else.”
