Ortofon 2MR Bronze Cartridge - Low-profile Design for Rega Turntables

What You Need to Know

Premium Sound for Low-Profile Turntables

The Ortofon 2MR Bronze delivers the same outstanding performance as the popular 2M Bronze in a lower-profile body. It’s designed for turntables with limited vertical clearance, making it an excellent upgrade for many Rega turntables and other low-profile tonearms.

If you’re ready to hear more detail from your records without changing your turntable setup, the 2MR Bronze is a great choice.

Fine Line Stylus Finds More Music

The Nude Fine Line diamond stylus is the biggest upgrade over an elliptical stylus. Its slim shape reaches deeper into the groove and follows the music with greater accuracy.

You’ll hear cleaner vocals, better instrument separation, and lower distortion, especially on the inner grooves of an LP. The larger contact area also helps reduce record wear.

Advanced Moving Magnet Design

Inside the cartridge is Ortofon’s proven moving magnet generator with split pole pin technology and silver-plated oxygen-free copper coils.

This combination produces a smooth, balanced sound with excellent stereo imaging and impressive detail. Its strong output works with virtually any moving magnet phono preamp.

Built to Fit More Turntables

The 2MR Bronze offers the same internal design and sound quality as the standard 2M Bronze. The difference is its low-profile body, which fits turntables where a standard-height cartridge may not provide proper tonearm geometry.
