Ortofon Cadenza Red Moving Coil Cartridge

The Cadenza Red model is using a Nude Fine Line stylus with a cylindrical aluminium cantilever. The stylus tip radius is r/R 8/40 µm.

The coils are made from 6NX (99.9999%) pure silver wire. An improved winding process on the armature allows a better channel balance.
