Ortofon Rondo Bronze

The sound from the Rondo Bronze cartridge is very detailed in its spectrum and differentiates the sound source in a refined and uniform manner. Big orchestral music will be reproduced powerfully and yet well-controlled, with open space around the instruments.

The Nude FG80 diamond is mounted on a conical aluminum cantilever, yielding very linear frequency response over the entire frequency range, while at the same time ensuring very high tracking ability.

The recommended load resistance is between 50 and 100Ω, depending on personal preference of openness. Higher load resistance will always tend toward offering more liveliness and space in the sound-image.
