Ortofon CC MKII TWIN SCRATCH – Concorde MKII Scratch Cartridges
Overview:
The Ortofon CC MKII TWIN SCRATCH Concorde MKII Scratch Cartridge package includes two preinstalled Scratch cartridges. Each cartridge uses a spherical diamond and aluminium cantilever for demanding turntablism. With 120 μm tracking ability and 10 mV output, the setup supports aggressive scratching and back-cueing. Both cartridges also come together in a Flight case, making storage and transportation more convenient.
Key Features:
• Two-Cartridge Performance Set: The package supplies two Concorde MKII Scratch cartridges, giving DJs a ready dual-cartridge setup.
• Turntablism-Focused Construction: Ortofon designed the cartridges around scratching and back-cueing, supporting demanding vinyl manipulation techniques.
• High-Tracking Spherical Stylus: The spherical diamond reaches 120 μm tracking ability, helping maintain groove contact during intense routines.
• Aluminium Cantilever Structure: The aluminium cantilever supports controlled stylus movement, helping maintain consistent tracking during record manipulation.
• Powerful 10 mV Output: The exceptionally high output produces an energetic signal with strong bass and extended high frequencies.
• 4 g Recommended Tracking Force: The 3–5 g operating range provides suitable adjustment, with 4 g recommended for the intended application.
• Flight Case Storage: The included Flight case keeps both cartridges together, supporting easier transportation and organised storage.
