The Ortofon MC A95, a world class moving coil cartridge, is launched to commemorate the 95th Anniversary of Ortofon’s technical leadershipin the audio industry.

With the MC A95, the bar is raised for its predecessor, theMC A90. The MC A95 not only celebrates the past 95 years of Ortofon, first and foremost it also makes history by significantly raising the standards by which sound reproduction is measured, making it a celebration of sound itself.

The new Ortofon MC A95 has gone to the next level by reducing unwanted vibrations and increasing the dynamic capability of the cartridge. Our extensive knowledge of vibration properties, characteristics in different shapes and materials, competences in magnetism, mechanical design and new technologies has been applied for optimization of the MC A95.

Those who choose to adopt the MC A95 will experience the life like, open sound, with exceedingly clear midrange for a presentation that is unparalleled. The MC A95 remains extremely musical while paying close attention to micro dynamic details, with its delicate, but also analytical nature.

Lovers of music will take note of a truly organic and encapsulating experience which transcends the boundaries of recording and undeniably blurs the distinction between what is live and what is recorded.

Flexibility and performance with a range of compatibility: With optimal weight and compliance to suit the vast majority of modern tonearms, the MC A95 is easily compatible with a seemingly endlessarray of modern contemporary high-end turntable equipment.

Low internal impedance makes the MC A95 less sensitive toload and therefore ensures compatibility with Ortofon ST-80 SE transformer, aswell as with the widest range of preamps and transformers.

By combining the utilization of the SLM process, our patented WRD system and zero-resonance spikes, we are confident that the perfect mechanical integration of this cartridge with your tonearm will result in a significant and breathtaking increase in dynamics, resolution, and richness in detail.

The Ortofon MC A95 will undoubtedly provide sound which is literally unsurpassed and simply has to be experienced.  Of course, aesthetically, the MC A95 has a distinctive, elegant design which makes no compromises.
