Ortofon MC X10. Entry-Level Moving Coil Cartridge with High-End Precision
The Ortofon MC X10 is more than just a moving coil cartridge – it’s your gateway to discovering the full emotional depth and fidelity of vinyl playback. With a precision-crafted elliptical diamond stylus and a robust, high-tech body, the MC X10 offers a rich, detailed, and natural sound from the very first note.
True High-Fidelity Analog Sound
Featuring a high-precision elliptical stylus, the MC X10 ensures accurate groove tracking and clean playback. It delivers outstanding resolution, texture, and musical expression, making it ideal for discerning listeners and those seeking an uncompromising entry into high-fidelity vinyl audio.
Pure Silver Coils for Maximum Detail
Unlike most entry-level MC cartridges, the MC X10 features pure silver wire coils, a technology typically reserved for high-end models. This ensures transparent signal transmission, enhanced micro-detail, and exceptional realism—revealing every nuance of the recording.
High-Efficiency Magnetic Circuit
At the heart of the MC X10 is a one-piece polar magnet cylinder, optimized for signal purity and efficiency. This advanced magnetic system works in tandem with the silver coils to provide higher output, lower harmonic distortion, and a more dynamic, coherent soundstage.
Advanced Vibration Control for Accurate Tracking
Custom rubber dampers developed in-house by Ortofon provide outstanding mechanical stability and control of coil movement. This precise damping minimizes distortion and enhances tracking ability, even during complex musical passages.
Durable, Precision-Machined Body
The cartridge body is built from stainless steel using Metal Injection Molding (MIM) technology, forming a honeycomb-like internal structure. It’s then coated using Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) for increased surface durability and a premium finish that resists wear over time.
Elegant Design Meets Functional Performance
The MC X10’s clean, understated design blends seamlessly with any tonearm setup. Its well-balanced proportions and high-quality finish reflect the meticulous engineering inside.
