New MC Xpression is now shipping

Ortofon is pleased to announce the release of the brand new Xpression, an integrated headshell-type cartridge for use with modern or vintage SME-type tonearms.  Developed using the acclaimed SLM manufacturing system (for which Ortofon has a patent pending), the Xpression utilizes the same technology as the A90, but with a slightly more relaxed character in comparison.  The Xpression also uses a Boron cantilever and a special-polished Ortofon Replicant 100 diamond for the most engaging analog playback experience.
