Ortofon CC MKII CLUB

Core Performance Features

• Audiophile Special Elliptical Stylus: Employs a precision Special Elliptical diamond profile that makes broader contact with groove walls, unlocking superior high-frequency tracking, transparent stereo imaging, and nuanced acoustic detail compared to standard spherical styli.

• High-Output 8 mV Signal: Delivers an 8 mV output that maximizes signal-to-noise ratio and provides healthy gain staging into DJ mixers and studio preamps with minimal background noise.

• Club & Studio Voicing: Tuned to deliver full-spectrum sound reproduction with deep, articulate low end, natural midrange, and extended treble, making it ideal for big club sound systems, vinyl digitization, and radio broadcast.

• Direct Plug-and-Play SME Mount: Integrated one-piece Concorde chassis screws straight into any standard S-shaped SME-bayonet tonearm, eliminating headshell lead wires, mounting screws, and alignment protractors.

• Ergonomic Replaceable Finger Lift: Outfitted with Ortofon's broad, textured yellow finger lift designed for stable, slip-free handling in dim club booths, easily replaced if damaged.

• DVS & Real Vinyl Tracking: Fully compatible with both traditional analog vinyl collections and digital vinyl systems (rekordbox, Serato, Traktor).
