Der Ortofon 2M Silver Tonabnehmer ist ein OEM-Modell, das die meisten Eigenschaften des 2M Red Tonabnehmers übernimmt. Die Besonderheit des 2M Silver sind versilberte Kupferspulen, das gleiche Spulendrahtmaterial wie bei den Modellen 2M Bronze und 2M Black, mit einer reduzierten Anzahl von Windungen. 2M Silver ist aufgrund einer speziellen Gummiaufhängung und eines versilberten Kupferdrahtmaterials ein Upgrade im Vergleich zu 2M Red.
Replacement stylus unit - 2M Silver (interchangeable with 2M Red and 2M Blue)
Stylus lifetime: with proper care we find that up to 1000 hours is possible without degradation of performance.
2M Series styli interchangeability:
The 2M Series' engines, coils and magnets configurations are not identical: Red, Blue and Silver are identical, so are the Bronze and Black and so are the true mono variants 2M Mono and 2M 78. Likewise, 2M series styli are interchangeable within the below combinations:
- 2M Red, 2M Blue and 2M Silver
- 2M Bronze and 2M Black
- 2M Mono and 2M 78
Compatibility with Rega brand TT/TA:
REGA brand cartridges’ height from stylus tip to the top cartridge mounting surface is lower than standard. Therefore you would need spacers to ensure the correct set-up of the Ortofon cartridge.
Adjusting the height of your Rega tonearm is easy with Acoustic Signature's Spacer Set. It allows you to adjust the height from 0.5 mm to 3.5 mm in precise steps of 0.5 mm - without removing the tone arm. Simply loosen the screws, insert the AS-spacer, then lock the screws back down, and you're tonearm is ready to play.
3.2 - 4 mm spacers should be enough for 2M cartridge.
