The Concorde Music Black LVB 250 Phono Cartridge stands at the pinnacle of the Concorde Music series, offering unparalleled performance and sound quality for the discerning DJ, audiophile, and audio professional. With an easy installation process that requires no tools, Ortofon phono cartridges bring back the joy of vinyl record listening. Experience the highest level of accuracy and fidelity with a phenomenal combination of transparency, responsiveness, and speed. What sets the Concorde Music Black LVB 250 apart is its advanced Nude Shibata Stylus on a Boron cantilever, which ensures precise tracking and minimal distortion.
Designed for audiophiles who demand the best possible hi-fi performance, the Concorde Music Black LVB 250 cartridge offers enhanced sound quality, superior tracking, and unmatched durability. Ortofon phono cartridges are compatible with Technics Grand Class Turntables, like the SL-1210GR Direct Drive Turntable System II and the SL-1210G-K Direct Drive Turntable System. With its exceptional sound quality, the Ortofon Concorde Music Black LVB 250 Phono Cartridge pairs perfectly with the SL-1210G-K Turntable.
When compared to other cartridges in the Concorde Music series, the Black LVB 250 represents the ultimate expression of Ortofon's expertise. It builds upon the strengths of its predecessors, offering enhanced sound quality, superior tracking, and unmatched durability. If you demand the best and refuse to compromise on performance, the Ortofon Concorde Music Black LVB 250 Phono Cartridge is the clear choice.
When the cartridge plays a pivotal role in your listening experience, proper installation is crucial for the performance and longevity of your turntable system. Ortofon moving magnet cartridges are engineered for effortless installation. Compatible with all s-shaped tonearms, Concorde Music cartridges easily mount without any screws or wires, unlike most turntable cartridges. With the protective stylus guard on the stylus, plug the cartridge into the end of the tonearm, gently tighten the finger screw, and set the tracking force to 1.8g for optimal tracking and sound quality—It's that simple! The unique design of these cartridges has earned Ortofon a spot as an industry leader.
At the core of your music experience lies the stylus. The Concorde Music Black LVB 250 MM Cartridge features Ortofon's most advanced stylus, a Nude Shibata Diamond Stylus on a Boron cantilever. The shape of Shibata distinguishes itself by having a narrow and long contact surface with excellent groove handling. Nude diamonds weigh less than tipped diamonds, leading to enhanced responsiveness, greater detail, and reduced distortion. With architecture mimicking a cutting stylus, the Shibata stylus ensures the most accurate reproduction, low distortion, and extended frequency range. The use of an extremely stiff and lightweight Boron cantilever adds remarkable transparency, speed, and responsiveness. Exclusive Ortofon rubber compounds are used for the stylus' rubber suspensions. This suspension plays a vital role in contributing to the overall high-performance and functionality of the phono cartridge.
Designed to withstand the demands of professional use, the Concorde Music Black LVB 250 cartridge features a robust construction with a quad-coil generating system with silver-plated copper wire and four split pole pins. First introduced in the 500 series and Super OM series, Ortofon's proprietary Split Pole Pins Technology reduces energy loss and preserves the music signal. These pins enable moving magnet cartridges to achieve a flat frequency response like moving coil cartridges. The silver-plated copper wire combined with the split pole pins delivers exceptional channel balance and separation for a precise and dynamic sound no matter the style of music. With a 6mV output, this cartridge is compatible with a wide array of DJ mixers and phono preamps, ensuring seamless integration into your existing home audio setup.
Is there a difference between the Ortofon OM and Concorde series of cartridges?
The main difference between the Ortofon OM and Concorde series cartridges is the housing and contacts found on the cartridge.

How long does it take for the cartridge to break-in?
