Exploring the lineup
The 2M series is built on our philosophy of accuracy in sound. All our experience, know-how, technology, and innovation has gone into making it the series that lets you hear the music the way the artist intended. In every piece of every cartridge, we strive for perfection, and when the technology can’t deliver the quality we want - we invent something that can. To ensure the highest of quality in our product we keep everything close. All our cartridges are designed and crafted right here in Denmark.
Our dedication to excellence is mirrored in our approach: each cartridge is meticulously crafted in Denmark to maintain the highest standards. Collaborating with Danish Industrial designer Møller Jensen Design, the 2M Series draws inspiration from the graceful facets of a diamond, a motif that elegantly mirrors the contours of record grooves. Form and functionality harmonize seamlessly, encapsulating the timeless sophistication of the 2M series.
