Concorde Black

Absolutely amazing and works a treat on my Stanton turntable. The bass is something else, infact out of this world. The clarity is brilliant as well!! Thanks Concorde and Amazon !!

While it's not an upgrade from the default VM95E cartridge I had in my Audio Technica AT-LP120X, it does play the older records I have in my collection better, due to it being a conical design. You do lose some clarity in the high end, but there is more low end. While the low end isn't clear, it's big and makes dance and drum and bass records fun to listen to. It was easy to install - just push it onto the tone arm, screw it in place, rebalance it and you're good to go. It says the tracking force is 3 to 4g which sounds like a lot, but remember that it's a conical stylus. Less of the needle is making contact with the grooves so it requires a higher force to keep the needle from jumping out of the grooves. If you have older records, perhaps ones which skip while you are playing them with an elliptical stylus, a conical styles might play it better. It also won't wear out the grooves as fast as an elliptical stylus.

I bought this to replace a Numark CC-1 which was distorted and the sound quality was poor. For the price I wasn't expecting a huge amount really, just knew with it being Ortofon it'd be decent quality. Anyway, it's properly good, absolutely blown away by the sound quality. Its' rich and clear, excellent bottom end, the highs aren't as crisp as some carts but they're there. Overall for the money, this is an excellent cart, you won't be disappointed.

I was using an Audio Technica 'red' stylus, which disappointingly for the price, lost its flair fairly quickly. This Concord (black) works better on a 2.0 gram setting and has a really balanced reproduction across the EQ range. I'm pleased.

Fantastic product 👍🏾

I purchased this in the hope that it would upgrade the sound quality on my Audio Technica deck. It was simple to fit; just plug and play. Once I had calibrated it to 4g (I also bought a calibration kit), I played my first vinyl. Whilst the sound difference wasn’t gob-smackingly different, it WAS noticeable. It was a lot cleaner and clearer compared to the original cartridge and stylus that came supplied with the deck. If you’re looking for a relatively inexpensive way to noticeably upgrade your listening experience then I can recommend this Ortofon Concorde.

Brought this thinking it would be a good comparison to my Ortofon cartridge, it's close in sound range but lack some of the punchy bass I come to expect from my cartridges. So for me, I should've spent my money on my tried and tested cartridge. Verdict, good but not quite good enough (in my opinion).

Amazing! Well chuffed for the great value product. Thank you

Io la trovo affascinante, bellissima, a questo si aggiunge una facilità di montaggio disarmante, una qualità percepita del prodotto molto elevata. Il rapporto qualità/prezzo eccezionale, a quel prezzo credo personalmente non si possa chiedere di più, complimenti a ORTOFON, a mio parere l'unica nota che mi sento di muovere verso questo splendido prodotto é la mancanza di una maggiore apertura dello spettro musicale, ho come l'impressione che in certe situazioni manchi un pò di ariosità, ho come l'impressione di una certa compressione del fronte musicale, forse nelle fasi più complesse della riproduzione musicale. ORTOFON infatti produce un paio di versioni maggiormente performanti, ma ripeto anche il costo d'acquisto può far presupporre certe caratteristiche tecniche del prodotto, come ad esempio la Concorde Black ha una risposta in frequenza che si ferma a 18.000 hz, per molti frequenze che non sono percepibili, ma se si è allenato l'udito e si hanno le orecchie in buone condizioni si riescono a percepire anche frequenze maggiori, nonostante si sia avanti con l'età. Considero pienamente promosso il prodotto, spendendo qualcosa in più si può ottenere ancora qualcosa in più, ma qui ognuno si deve confrontare con le proprie disponibilità. Consegna AMAZON in meno di 16 ore, non si può chiedere di più.

Just tried a couple of hours on a new set of these, they stick rlly nice to the vinyl and still sound rlly nice. Very happy with the blue ones. I was unsure what to expect from a reloop collaboration but I am very happy i got these now. It's a world of difference compared ot my worn conrode pro S and Stanton's.

Garantía Ortofon. Lo dice todo. El sonido es nítido y "pesado". Útil para mí por tener vinilos algo desgastados y viejos.

Works fine for the price on my technics sl-1200.cant complain on this

Deze werkt fijn
