5.0 out of 5 stars Great upgrade for my turntable
Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2024
Verified Purchase
I decided to upgrade my old cartridge to this 2m blue. Such a great improvement to the sound. I'm happy to really crank up the volume now and hear the rich clarity. So nice to have it pre-installed, making it a good value. Tone arm shell screwed in, I adjusted the counterweight and it plays nicely, easy peasy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Testina eccezionale
Reviewed in Italy on April 28, 2024

Montata su Technics sl1200 mk7 è davvero pazzesca. Ogni ora di ascolto migliora, il suono è molto definito ma mai stancante, convive alla perfezione nel mio impianto hi-fi.

Consigliata per tutti quelli che hanno un giradischi con l’innesto rapido per le testine e non ha la voglia o le competenze per smontare e rimontare le testine in modo ordinario.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellente cellule MM
Reviewed in France on April 18, 2024
Verified Purchase
J'ai acheté cette cellule Ortofon 2M blue pour remplacer celle fournie avec une platine TEAC qui était pourtant très correcte pour son prix de l'ordre de 30 à 40 euros. L'amélioration est impressionnante. Le son est à la fois plus riche et plus précis. Je l'ai testée avec trois excellents disques de référence pour moi : jazz, classique et flamenco. La reproduction des voix dans les aigus, vocalises de soprano d'Opéra par exemple, est impeccable. Ca ne sature jamais. En jazz, ça "claque" parfaitement. Mes éléments de comparaison ne sont que mes cellules précédentes moins coûteuses. J'en arrive à me demander si on gagne encore en qualité avec des cellules plus chères. Mais, dans l'immédiat, je ne vais pas dépenser 500 euros pour faire l'expérience. Evidemment, même la dépense de 250 euros pour une Ortofon 2 M Blue (prémontée ce qui est tout de même pratique) n'a d'intérêt que pour écouter des disques de très bonne qualité de prise de son, de gravure et d'état. Sinon, la précision de cette cellule a tendance à accentuer les défauts et une cellule au rendu plus "flou" peut sembler plus flatteuse.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ausgezeichneter Klang
Reviewed in Germany on October 3, 2023

Es stimmt, was viele über die Ortofon 2m Tonabnehmer sagen: Sie bieten einfach ein ausgezeichnetes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis. Ich habe mich direkt für den Blue entschieden, weil mein Budget es hergegeben hat und ich bereue es nicht. Montiert habe ich ihn an einem Denon DP 400 mit entsprechender Aufnahme am Tonarm und was soll ich sagen? Der Klang im Vergleich zum Denon-eigenen Tonabnehmer ist deutlich voller, satter und nuancierter, mit mehr Details in den oberen Mitten und Höhen.
Hielt die Bewertungen im Internet zuerst für Voodoo, aber selbst an einem eher günstigen System hört man die Verbesserungen deutlich heraus.

Einziger Nachteil: Bei manchen Platten höre ich jetzt einige deutliche Verzerrungen in den inneren Spurrillen, welche ich vorher nicht wahrgenommen habe. Da dies nur wenige Platten aus einem bestimmten Presswerk betrifft und seltsamer Weise immer nur die A-Seite, gebe ich hier dem Presswerk die Schuld und nicht diesem erstklassigen Tonabnehmer :-)

PS: Ich habe auch die Möglichkeit gehabt, den 2M Bronze kurz an meinem System probezuhören und auch wenn dieser noch mal mehr Details ans Tageslicht fördert und noch „offener“ und „klarer“ klingt, gefallen mir die Tiefen beim Blue besser - und dass man die Platten nicht ständig waschen muss. Der Bronze ist selbst einfachen Fingerabdrücken gegenüber ziemlich zickig :-D

5.0 out of 5 stars M2 Blue Gang!

What a quality needle. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. I owned Ortofon Reds for years now, but got a 3rd turntable, recently, and wasn’t enjoying the LP120’s stock needle by AT. It wasn’t a needle good for samplers, no back cueing, no scratching. Hence the need for an Ortofon. To get any better than this needle, you have to spend $700 on the bronze one, which at that point is apples and oranges.
Before this I was using a tube amp, but I found the ortofon m2 blue was losing some high end transients and I wasn’t fond of the difference. Strange, my Audio Technica LP120 actually sounds more full with the Ortofon M2’s in self amp mode on the LP120, no external preamp. Not sure if this is the amazing clarity of the needle, or that the LP120 has a good amp in it. But ish sounds good!!! 10/10.
