    The shape of the Shibata distinguish itself by having a narrow and long contact surface. The Shibata is very close to the original cutting stylus which ensures the most accurate reproduction, low distortion and extended frequency range.

    Rubber suspension
    A crucially important and vital part of a phono cartridge overall performance is the stylus rubber suspension.

    Exclusive Ortofon rubber compounds are used for the stylus suspensions in the Concorde Music Blue, carefully produced at the inhouse rubber production, and developed by the research and engineering team at Ortofon for brilliant performance.

    Coil system
    The Concorde Music features Ortofon's quad-coil generating system with four split pole pins. Silver-plated oxygen-free copper is chosen for the quad-coil system, along with four Ortofon split pole pins.

    This results in exceptional channel balance and separation, delivering precise and dynamic sound. With a 6 mV output, it offers lifelike sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity, capturing every detail.
