The Ortofon OM 20 is a moving magnet cartridge designed for vinyl playback systems. It is an upgrade from the OM 10 model, offering improved audio quality and performance. The cartridge features a nude elliptical diamond stylus, which enhances tracking ability and reduces distortion, resulting in clearer and more detailed sound reproduction across a wide frequency range. The frequency response typically extends from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, catering to most audio applications. Its recommended tracking force ranges from 1.5 to 2.0 grams, providing a balance between performance and stylus longevity. The OM 20 also includes a lower internal impedance compared to its predecessor, facilitating better dynamics and clarity. The cartridge’s body is designed with a lightweight build, which aids in maintaining the overall mass of the tonearm, thereby optimizing playback. The OM 20 is compatible with a variety of turntables and tonearms, making it an adaptable choice for vinyl enthusiasts.
