Ortofon MC X30 Moving Coil Cartridge

The Ortofon MC X30 is designed for vinyl listeners who want to experience their records with heightened precision, depth, and nuance. At the core of its performance is a nude fine-line diamond stylus, shaped for increased contact with the groove wall. This allows it to extract more subtle musical information, especially in complex or high-frequency passages. Compared to the MC X20, the X30 delivers improved resolution and micro-detail, making each listen feel more immersive and lifelike.

This refined level of playback is supported by high-purity silver coils, which preserve signal accuracy and ensure tonal clarity. A newly developed magnet system maintains strong signal integrity, while custom rubber dampers control unwanted vibrations for clean, stable tracking. These components are securely housed within a honeycomb-structured stainless-steel body, manufactured using MIM technology to maximise mechanical stability. Whether you're exploring new pressings or rediscovering familiar favourites, the MC X30 brings out the depth, character and emotion in your music with confidence and control.
