What is stereo?




There are now two system of high fidelity, monophonic (monaural) and stereophonic. Monophonic is a system that starts from one microphone and is fed through a single high fidelity set. Stereophonic is a double system. Two separate microphones are placed at different sides of the orchestra and two different systems are used to keep the two signals or channels separated. Two separate speakers are used, placed on different sides of you room. Stereo is much like 3-D photography, two slightly different sound reach your ears giving you a new dimension in sound.

Ortofon MC10 Super II cartridge

A Level of Quality You thought you Couldn't Afford

 

Compatible with most High quality amplifiers - Like the other higher output Moving Coil cartridges from Ortofon, the MC 10 Super II produces sufficient output voltage for the MC inputs of better audio amplifiers.

 

For more than 50 years music lovers and audiophiles all over the world have appreciated the unique sound quality generated by Ortofon's Moving Coil cartridges. Music lovers have chosen this particular design for the simple reason that it gives them greater listening pleasure. And audiophiles have praised the portrayal of space, and precise image location, plus the richness and purity of detail.

Many have asked the question: why is the sound of a Moving Coil cartridge so superior to that of a traditional magnetic design?

The answer, in one world, is linearity. The patented Ortofon low-impedance, low-output design is inherently linear over the entire audible range. And over the years, numerous enhancements developed by Ortofon have further increased the linearity of Moving Coil cartridges and eliminated still more sources to sonic colouration.

Even the least expensive member of the new MC Super II generation - the MC 10 Super II - incorporates a highly advanced diamond stylus, the Wide Range Damping System, the Ortophase concept and several other advantages, originally developed for top-of-the-line Ortofon cartridges. These technologies are also described in more detail in connection with the MC30 and MC20 Super II.

 

Outstanding Tracking Ability at All frequencies and levels

The tracking ability of a cartridge begins at the point of the stylus. In the case of the MC 10 Super II, the stylus is a nude Fritz Gyger Type 2 diamond which features a very slim profile, and a relatively large footprint.

These qualities mean that even high frequency modulation in the innermost turns of the groove will be reproduced accurately - at a lower tracking force than normally associated with Moving Coil cartridges.

Furthermore, the ingenious metal disc that is the heart of Ortofon's Wide Range Damping System ensures optimum damping of the Cantilever movements at low as well as very high frequencies. This is one more reason why the MC10 Super II will accurately track the violent modulation from a bass drum, as well as reproduce the delicate timber of a harpsichord.
