ORTOFON SUPER OM30 OM 30 PHONO CARTRIDGE The Ortofon Super OM30 OM 30 phono cartridge has received sterling accolades from many reviewers and end-users. Most recently, the Ortofon Super OM30 and the Super OM20 cartridges received the very prestigious Editors Choice Award from The Absolute Sound. A summary of the review of the Ortofon Super OM30 cartridge: According to The Absolute Sound, the Ortofon Super OM20 has an elusive quality of relaxed, easy listenability that makes it among the most appealing of all pickups. The Ortofon Super OM30 is fractionally more transparent, lively, and dynamic... Both are superb trackers and achieve a level of sonic/musical performance quite disproportionate to their bargain-basement price. Highly Recommended. At the time of its review, the Ortofon Super OM30 was rated in the same performance category as the Shure V15VxMR. Exclusive Technologies Deliver Superior Results The world class performance of the Super OM30 is based on Ortofon’s lightweight moving magnet system, originally introduced in the OM (Optimum Match) Series, with two (2) major refinements. By means of advanced computer simulation methods, Ortofon is able to define the natural pivot point of the system with unprecedented accuracy while achieving an optimum oscillation balance. This results in improved linearity, higher channel separation, and reduced distortion. Ortofon also developed a technique to “slit” the less than 1 mm diameter hollow pole pins, thus significantly reducing “eddy current” losses caused by magnetic hysteresis. This sophisticated technology extends the frequency range and improves phase linearity. Upgradeable Performance All Super OM models have the same body, construction, and magnetic circuitry. The only difference is the interchangeable stylus unit. Thus, when your level of musical appreciation reaches a new constellation, you can simply switch the existing stylus to the Ortofon Stylus 40. It offers pinnacle performance for the most demanding and sophisticated listener.
