Pick it S2 MM
The Pro-Ject Pick it S2 MM is the technical blend of the meticulous manufacturing experts at Ortofon and the visionary design team at Pro-Ject Audio Systems.
This collaboration allowed the Pick it S2 MM to benefit from technologies such as split pole pins that allow for a frequency response akin to that of an MC cartridge; as well as an outstanding treble output which provides a warm and deeply dynamic sound.
The cartridge employs a special elliptical type stylus tip which reproduces sound with superb detail and expansive imagery. Pair this with a strong cantilever derived from professional DJ applications and you get a cartridge that is both great sounding and incredibly sturdy.
Pro-Ject also carefully considered the aesthetics of the cartridge, with a body shape that matches Ortofon 2M cartridges and a soft, semi-transparent grey colour that pairs delicately with almost any Pro-Ject turntable, the Pick it S2 MM melds nicely into your system allowing you to appreciate it’s benefit without trying to grab your attention visually.
