Ortofon OMB30 Phono Pickup Cartridge

Our standard (not "super") Ortofon OMB-30 Cartridge comes with the STY-30 stylus and is equal to the OM-30 also made by Ortofon which is supplied stock on many popular brands of turntables such as Pro-Ject, Dual, Rega & Thorens. The B simply stands for bulk nothing else. So, it is delivered to us exactly as it would be shipped to a turntable manufacturer. So this cartridge will come to you in our house brand packaging. But the cartridge and needle is 100% genuine Ortofon and includes the slip-on stylus protector.

Ortofon Optimum Match (OM) cartridges match most tonearms perfectly. If your tonearm has a standard headshell or a cartridge mount, then step up to optimal sound reproduction with OM’s. A glance at anyone of these cartridges will reveal Ortofon's answer to perfect tonearm matching. Ingeniously tucked into the top of the mounting bracket is a tiny, removable weight-plate.
 • If your tonearm is an standard tonearm, just leave the weight-plate.
 • If your tonearm is one of the low mass types, then simply remove the weight. The mass of your OM cartridge is now a mere 2.5g.
