{"product_id":"ortofon-hifi-hifi-super-om-5e-387949","title":"SUPER OM 5E","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAn MM Cartridge Designed to Get the Best from Your Vinyl Daily\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis MM (Moving Magnet) phono cartridge follows the most common approach for equipping a turntable: simple implementation, broad compatibility with MM phono preamps, and a consistent sound signature. Its elliptical diamond aims for a clear goal: to go beyond a conical profile in reading finesse, while remaining accessible and forgiving in adjustments. The result: cleaner playback in busy passages, better-defined highs, and improved attack clarity, without making the overall sound too \"clinical.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a stated frequency response of 20 to 22,000 Hz (+3 \/ -3), this cartridge emphasizes a wide bandwidth, useful both for hi-fi and DJ applications focused on listening and mixing. Channel separation (22 dB at 1 kHz) contributes to a stable stereo image, while channel balance (1.5 dB at 1 kHz) helps maintain coherent centering of vocals and instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For, and What Turntable Uses?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cartridge is primarily aimed at vinyl enthusiasts seeking \u003cstrong\u003ean immediate gain in precision\u003c\/strong\u003e compared to entry-level cartridges, without complex adjustments. It is well suited for hi-fi turntables equipped with a standard tonearm, for home listening: living room, office, hi-fi corner, or even a small production studio using vinyl as a sampling source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor DJs, it can support \u003cstrong\u003evinyl mixing\u003c\/strong\u003e focused on musicality and record care, especially for clean transitions, good groove holding, and balanced reproduction. For intensive scratching or highly vibrational environments (large subwoofers, high sound pressure), dedicated DJ cartridges are generally preferred, but for versatile and refined use, the elliptical profile remains an excellent choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGood to know: an MM cartridge operates with a \u003cstrong\u003erecommended load of 47 kOhm\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003ecapacitance of 200 to 500 pF\u003c\/strong\u003e. These values influence the treble response\u0026#59; adhering to these recommendations helps maintain a natural high end without excessive brightness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe core of this cartridge is based on an MM architecture, with an \u003cstrong\u003einternal inductance of 580 mH\u003c\/strong\u003e and an \u003cstrong\u003einternal impedance of 1 ohm\u003c\/strong\u003e, designed for simple pairing with the vast majority of MM phono preamps. Its output voltage of \u003cstrong\u003e4 mV\u003c\/strong\u003e at 1000 Hz (5 cm\/sec) provides a good level without excessively boosting gain, which helps control hiss on sensitive setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe elliptical diamond, with a stylus tip radius of \u003cstrong\u003er\/R 8\/18 µm\u003c\/strong\u003e, improves contact with the groove walls: this often results in better definition of micro-details (reverberations, cymbal texture, playing nuances), while remaining relatively forgiving with slightly worn records. The tracking capability is specified at \u003cstrong\u003e60 µm\u003c\/strong\u003e (at 315 Hz with recommended tracking force), a useful indicator for groove holding on dynamic pressings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe adjustment is intentionally straightforward: \u003cstrong\u003erecommended tracking force 1.75 g\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003etracking angle 20 degrees\u003c\/strong\u003e. The lateral dynamic compliance rated at \u003cstrong\u003e20 µm\/mN\u003c\/strong\u003e helps balance groove tracking and healthy behavior across a wide variety of tonearms. Finally, the option to replace the diamond with a spare model (Stylus 5E, Stylus 10) extends the lifespan of your setup and facilitates maintenance, an essential point for regular vinyl listeners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1
