Ortofon Quintet Black S Moving Coil Cartridge

Ortofon Quintet Black Phono Cartridge

The Quintet Black is the best example of Quintets overall excellence.

The Quintet Black is graced with a Nude Shibata diamond, considered one of the best stylus profiles available, mounted on a high-performance Boron cantilever.

The Shibatas slim, highly polished profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the walls of the groove and ensures detailed and pure reproduction throughout the spectrum, including even the most high frequency groove information. 

The Quintet Black will be unfettered by musical genre and will give the closest approach within the Quintet series to Ortofons true accuracy in sound.
