ORTOFON FF-15 XE MkII cartridges models.
Original Ortofon Stylus , Made in Denmark.
The high output voltage of the FF15 X Mk II makes it a perfect match for receivers and amplifiers with a low sensitivity phono input. The FF15XE Mk II fitted with elliptical diamond. A medium compliance cartridge which means that it can be used with a large number of turntables.
The elliptical diamond provides increased high frequency tracing ability, making this model well qualified to reproduce even the most exacting music. All the above-mentioned Mk II models have a redesigned body with improved shielding and repositioned terminal pins for easy connection. The pins are gold plated and have a new method of press fitting the internal connections for greater reliability and very small contact resistance.
The elliptical diamond provides increased high frequency tracing ability, making this model well qualified to reproduce even the most exacting music.
