## Description

Product description Ortofon OM Pro S Single The Pro S has a spherical diamond stylus which minimizes scratching and a solid cantilever which can survive hectic activity at the turntable. No matter what the application, the Pro S provides remarkable versatility for virtually any setting. The sound quality is absolutely not to worry about. The Pro S is a consistent performer and a fine all-arounder! How to replace a stylus Firstly lock the turntable tone arm, unscrew the cartridge, gently remove the stylus from the cartridge and insert a new stylus. A stylus is changed usually by pulling straight out and in the opposite direction of the turntable's arm. If the stylus doesn't come with directions, try these: with one hand, hold the cartridge to steady it. With the other hand, using a pair of tweezers, grasp the stylus from both sides and pull. Install the new stylus: holding the stylus from the top, press it gently into the space at the tip of the cartridge where the old stylus had been. Don't force it. Proper care comprises of the following Cleaning of record by means of carbon fibre brush before and after every use. Cleaning of record by using record cleaning machine once in a while. Cleaning of stylus by means of a fine antistatic brush. Please remember to remove dust from the diamond tip before and after playback of each record. Use the brush in the forward direction from the rear of the cartridge towards the stylus tip and never from stylus tip to the rear of the cartridge and never from side to side. Proper adjustment of antiskating, azimuth and tracking force. Single Vs. Pre-mounted Ortofon's OM Series of DJ cartridges are available in two versions: Single or Pre-mounted. The single version is just the cartridge and does NOT include a headshell. The pre-mounted version includes a headshell and the cartridge is already mounted to it for easy installation.

Review: SOUND QUALITY SUPERB !!!! - All i can say is what the ? ,THIS THING IS AMAZING , currently own about $11,000 in audiophile equipment ,never bought a DJ cart before im not a DJ and never will be, I bought it for all the hype I was hearing and it was dirt cheap figured I would just end up giving it to my kid, well no way is it going to my kid LOL ,this thing is extremely impressive, the sound quality is amazing this thing has great lows and amazing top end ,mids are impressive as well , you wait in the next few years this thing will go up drastically in price that is my prediction. Again I do not use this for DJing I am only an audio file listener, this gives you everything you want in an amazing listening experience. If you're looking for anything in a sub $400 cart this is the one for you. This card has an audiophile quality like no other cart has and its price range ,I would say the next tier up would be a $400 cart by Goldring which is also a very impressive cartridge company.,this cart sounds amazing with the pioneer pc-HS01 that i purchased also from desertcart ,due to its very good reviews as well ,amazing set up ,thanks guys for the amazing products .
Review: Great sounding and won't skip when scratching... - Ok so I just got into DJing with turntables. I've been using a DDJ-SX2 DJ controller before that. I was gifted two Gemini PT 2000 mk2 turntables, which are basically just Technics 1200 clones. Anyway, when I first got them, they had some raggedy needles on them so I swapped them with two new Numark CC-1 cart/stylus combos I bought on here. Well when trying to scratch on the turntables, the needles skipped like crazy. Sometimes it would be better than others, but I feel confident in saying that the CC-1 skips, no matter how tightly you calibrate it. I looked online for "best DJ carts for scratching" and saw this as one of the middle of the road choices. I decided to buy one to test it out and I can safely say, they are great for scratching. I'm able to scratch my 7inch scratch vinyl as well as my 7inch control vinyl without the needles skipping. It may skip if I'm overly vigorous and shake the turntable/tonearm too much, but when I'm using proper technique, it stays rock solid. Even dropping the sound and pulling back on the vinyl it stays in the groove. This is a great cart/stylus combo and I can't believe how cheap it is. It's $20 cheaper than the Numark CC-1 and works better than that one. If you're looking for a new cart, and don't want to drop almost $300 on a Shure M447, then this is a safe bet. It sounds great and performs like a champ. 5 stars all around.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Needle
*by S***R on December 10, 2021*

I was looking for an inexpensive Needle to replace the SHURE SC35's I've been using. Ortofon has a good name inside the DJ community so I decided to try these Out. I like my SHURE's because I've been using them since day one, But I'm happy with the tracking, the sound quality and the fact that it can stand the abuse of scratching. Also the fact that you can still get replacement stylus(s) if needed. I know you can get knock-off SHURE stylus, but they're not the same as the original. Ortofon has a Good Needle here.
