Additional Info

The Ortofon 320U is the Universal version of the Series 300, pairing a Fine Line tip with a natural, vocal-forward midrange and a wide, layered stage. Backgrounds stay quiet, bass runs taut instead of heavy, and imaging feels open on acoustic, jazz and vocal recordings. Dynamics remain composed rather than explosive, and sloppy setup gets punished, so careful alignment on a well-tuned table pays off.
