The 2MR Mono features a high-performance motor system with quad coils and Ortofon’s very own invention: the split pole pins.

The story behind MONO cartridges

Leif Johannsen, Ortofon Chief Officer of Acoustics and Research, reveals the story behind the MONO cartridges featuring the 2M Mono SE, which was specifically created as a tribute to the Mono Beatles album Set released in 2014.
