Specs
Ortofon MC-3 Turbo High Output Moving Coil Cartridge
The MC-3 Turbo takes high output Moving Coil cartridges a step further, with a highly polished, nude (natural as found in the Earth) fine line diamond.
The MC-3 Turbo has a 3.3mV output, which is perfect for use with any Moving Magnet (MM) phono preamps, including built-in models.
So, no special MC preamp is required!
The Nude Fine Line diamond produces a high level of detail and provides expansive stereo imaging.

Brilliant
Love this cartridge. It sounds awesome with a wide dynamic range giving me deep, full bass and clear trebles with stellar imagery. It cost much more on other websites than here and it was delivered within two days. Not having to upgrade my pre-amp was an added bonus. Thanks for this Ortofon!

Excellent Value
This is the second MC-3 Turbo I've owned. This cartridge sounds as good if not better than cartridges I've owned that cost more than twice what this little jewel costs. Very well rounded sound. Spacious sound field, punchy bass, stellar mids and very nice, crisp highs. Great service as usual from TurntableNeedles as well.

Replacement cartridge
This cartridge replaced a 22-plus year old Ortofon cartridge. I was experiencing left channel cut out. Replacing the cartridge was about the only thing that remained for me to try in order to fix the problem. It seems to have been the right solution. After about a month of use, everything is still working fine. The replacement cartridge was well packed and shipping information was excellent. Thank you.
