Ortofon 2M Black LVB250

The 2M Black LVB 250 has been recreated from the concepts of its
predecessor, the 2M Black, but the 2M Black LVB 250 performance takes
one step further to enhance the cartridge’s capabilities and technical
excellence.
The 2M Black LVB 250 uses a Nude Shibata diamond on a Boron cantilever, the combination known from the acclaimed MC Cadenza Black cartridge.
The
Nude Shibata stylus’s slim, highly polished profile allows an
exceedingly wide contact area to the groove walls and ensures notably
detailed reproduction throughout the spectrum, including even the
highest frequencies.
The use of an extremely stiff and lightweight Boron cantilever adds remarkable transparency, speed and responsiveness.

To attain an optimal interaction between compliance and damping, a new
rubber compound for the suspension system has been developed.
The
new rubber compound formula is based on the Multi Wall Carbon Nano
Tubes (MWCNT) highly efficient nano filler. The new MWCNT-based compound
offers desirable mechanical properties, which ensure better damping and
improve the overall performance of the cartridge.
Also, the new
MWCNT rubber compound allows for more environmental-friendly production,
adding further benefit. The MWCNT powder is applied in a rubber polymer
matrix and not in a powdered form, which makes the production process
more clean, non-polluting and energy saving.
