Additional Info

The Ortofon OM 30 Super builds on a Fine Line polish that traces groove detail without turning bright or fatiguing, keeping vocals natural and the stage stable. Bass stays reasonably dense and controlled, dynamics honest yet relaxed for long sessions across varied genres. A removable weight plate allows a lighter setup on low-mass tonearms depending on the mount. The Stylus 30 insert is replaceable, so wear never retires the body.
