Ortofon Stylus 2M Black LVB Replacement Stylus

Ortofon Stylus 2M Black LVB Replacement Stylus Uses a Nude Shibata diamond on a Boron cantilever An extremely stiff and lightweight Boron cantilever adds remarkable transparency, speed and responsiveness The new rubber compound formula Up to 1000 hours Stylus lifetime 2M Series styli interchangeability:The 2M Series’ engines, coils and magnets configurations are not identical: Red and Blue are identical, so are the Bronze and Black and so are the true mono variants 2M Mono and 2M 78. Likewise, 2M series styli are interchangeable within the below combinations: – 2M Red, 2M Blue and 2M Silver- 2M Bronze, 2M Black and 2M Black LVB 250- 2M Mono and 2M 78 The new Ortofon Exclusive Stylus2M Black LVB 250To commemorate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Ludwig van Beethoven, Ortofon announces the release of the 2M Black LVB 250 Exclusive Model. The 2M Black flagship from Ortofon is widely acknowledged as being one of the best MM cartridges on the market, but at Ortofon being the best doesn’t mean that they can’t get better. Benefits Of High-end Materials And Advancements In TechnologiesThe 2M Black LVB 250 has been recreated from the concepts of its predecessor, the 2M Black, but the 2M Black LVB 250 performance takes one step further to enhance the cartridge’s capabilities and technical excellence. The 2M Black LVB 250 uses a Nude Shibata diamond on a Boron cantilever, the combination known from the acclaimed MC Cadenza Black cartridge. The Nude Shibata stylus’s slim, highly polished profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the groove walls and ensures notably detailed reproduction throughout the spectrum, including even the highest frequencies. The use of an extremely stiff and lightweight Boron cantilever adds remarkable transparency, speed and responsiveness. The New Rubber Compound FormulaTo attain an optimal interaction between compliance and damping, a new rubber compound for the suspension system has been developed. The new rubber compound formula is based on the Multi Wall Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNT) highly efficient nano filler. The new MWCNT-based compound offers desirable mechanical properties, which ensure better damping and improve the overall performance of the cartridge. Also, the new MWCNT rubber compound allows for more environmental-friendly production, adding further benefit. The MWCNT powder is applied in a rubber polymer matrix and not in a powdered form, which makes the production process more clean, non-polluting and energy saving. Performance With A Range Of CompatibilityWith an optimal weight of 7.2 g and compliance of 22 μm/mN to suit the vast majority of modern tonearms, the 2M Black LVB 250 is easily compatible with an endless array of modern High-End equipment and is the ultimate solution for high fidelity reproduction. 2M Black LVB 250 Technical data Output voltage at 1000 Hz, 5cm/sec.  –  5 mVChannel balance at 1 kHz  –  < 1 dBChannel separation at 1 kHz  –  > 27 dBChannel separation at 15 kHz  –  15 dBFrequency response  –  20-20.000 + 2 / – 1 dBTracking ability at 315Hz at recommended tracking force  –  80 µmCompliance, dynamic, lateral  –  22 µm/mNStylus type  –  Nude ShibataStylus tip radius  –  r/R 6/50 µmCantilever material – BoronTracking force range  –  1.5-1.7 g (15-17 mN)Tracking force, recommended  – 1.6 g (16 mN)Tracking angle  –  20°Internal impedance, DC resistance  –  1.2 kOhmInternal inductance  –  630 mHRecommended load resistance  –  47 kOhmRecommended load capacitance  –  150-300 pFCartridge colour, body/stylus  –  Black/BlackCartridge weight  –  7.2 gReplacement stylus unit  – 2M Black LVB 250Interchangeable styli units –  2M Black and 2M Bronze Stylus lifetime: with proper care we find that up to 1000 hours is possible without degradation of performance.  2M Black LVB 250 product sheet Replacement styli datasheet
