Developed by music lovers for music lovers, Concorde Music cartridges combine superior performance with iconic design. This series represents a commitment to the profound impact of music on our lives, transforming every listening session into a captivating journey. Installing a Concorde Music cartridge in a turntable is easy and hassle-free, with no tools required.
Building on a rich legacy that began with the launch of the original Concorde, the Concorde Music has a long history as one of the most famous cartridges in the audio world. Its unique design, developed for easy mounting without screws or wires, won the Danish Industrial Design Award and became an icon in the audio industry.
The Concorde Music Blue features a Nude elliptical stylus on an aluminium cantilever, providing an improvement over the Concorde Music Red. The Nude diamonds, which weigh less than their pointed counterparts, improve responsiveness and detail, reducing distortion. This allows for continuous upgrades across the entire series, simply by replacing the stylus.
A crucial part of the overall performance of a phono cartridge is the rubber suspension of the stylus. The Concorde Music Blue uses Ortofon's exclusive rubber compounds, produced in-house and developed by Ortofon's research and engineering team, ensuring brilliant performance.
The Concorde Music incorporates Ortofon's quadruple coil generation system with four split poles. It uses oxygen-free silver-plated copper for the quad coil system, along with four Ortofon split-pole pins, resulting in exceptional balance and channel separation. With a 6 mV output, it delivers realistic sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity, capturing every detail.
Installation of the Concorde Music cartridge on the turntable is simple and uncomplicated thanks to the bayonet connector, which is compatible with all S-shaped tonearms. No tools are required, making it accessible to all users.
The Concorde Music Blue can be replaced or upgraded with all Concorde Music styli, allowing an upgrade path through the entire series up to the Concorde Music Black LVB 250. Upgrading the stylus is a simple task; simply remove the stylus and insert the new one, making sure to keep the stylus protector in place during installation to protect the stylus.
With the Ortofon Concorde Music Blue, every listening session becomes an exceptional experience, taking your musical enjoyment to new levels of precision and sound quality.
