This pickup system was developed for music lovers who do not compromise. The Concorde Music series combines top performance with iconic design, and the Music Black model is at the top of this line. Whether classical jazz, delicate strings or electronic soundscapes - this system takes music to a new level.

Ortofon - Over 100 years of audio technology with passion

Since its foundation in Denmark in 1918, Ortofon has stood for innovation, quality and precision in the field of analog audio technology. The Concorde Music series is an expression of these values and has been specially developed for hi-fi enthusiasts who want to experience sound at the highest level. With the Concorde Music Black, Ortofon brings all its experience to a product that is convincing in terms of both sound and functionality.

The modern Concorde design meets audiophile technology - ideal for anyone who wants to combine high-end performance with easy handling. As with all Concorde Music models, the Black can be mounted without tools: simply attach it to the tonearm and you're done.

Technical details of the Ortofon Concorde Music Black

With an output voltage of 6 mV at 1 kHz, the Concorde Music Black delivers a strong, clean signal. The channel balance is extremely balanced at 1 dB and ensures a stable stereo image. The channel separation is an impressive 26 dB at 1 kHz and 18 dB at 15 kHz - ideal values for clear, spatial music reproduction.

With a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz and a tolerance of +2 / 0 dB, the pickup precisely covers the entire audible spectrum. The reproduction always remains neutral, with fine resolution and without overemphasizing individual frequency ranges.

The tracking compliance(dynamic, lateral) is 15 µm/mN - ideal for controlled and stable tracking on most tonearms.

The absolute centerpiece is the naked Shibata diamond, mounted on an aluminum stylus carrier. The Shibata cut is considered one of the best for analog reproduction: it offers a particularly large contact surface to the record groove, resulting in higher detail resolution and lower distortion. The stylus tip radius is r/R 6/50 µm - a value that stands for exceptional precision.

The recommended tracking force/scanning angle color combination ofblack/black underlines the premium orientation of this model.

With a recommended load resistance of 47 kΩ and a load capacitance of 150-300 pF, the Concorde Music Black is compatible with virtually all high-quality phono preamps.

Why the Ortofon Concorde Music Black is the audiophile reference

If you want to get the best out of your record collection, you can't go past the Concorde Music Black. The Shibata cut ensures an incomparably fine resolution of detail - ideal for complex music styles, acoustic instruments and highly dynamic productions. You don't just hear more - you hear deeper into the music.

The easy handling thanks to tool-free installation makes entering the high-end world particularly pleasant. At the same time, the system is fully upgradeable: If you want even more, you can easily replace the Stylus with the Concorde Music Black LVB 250 - without having to replace the entire pickup system.

The Concorde Music Black is a statement for sophisticated listening and high-quality design. For all those who want to enjoy their vinyl collection with audiophile care, this model offers a sound experience in a class of its own.
