MC Quintet Black

MC Quintet Black

The Quintet Black S is the best example of Quintet’s overall excellence. The Quintet Black S is graced with a Nude Shibata diamond, considered one of the best stylus profiles available, mounted on a high-performance Sapphire cantilever. The Shibata’s slim, highly polished profile allows an exceedingly wide contact area to the walls of the groove and ensures detailed and pure reproduction throughout the spectrum, including even the most high frequency groove information.

Research and innovation

Accuracy level

The Ortofon MC Quintet Black S is the flagship model in the Quintet Series, delivering exceptional resolution, precision, and musical insight. Its lightweight, impact-resistant thermoplastic body ensures durability, while powerful neodymium magnets provide optimal output. Low internal impedance offers broad compatibility with moving coil preamps and transformers for accurate, faithful playback that stays true to every groove.

The story of Quintet

The Quintet series

Nothing demonstrates Ortofon's long-standing resilience more than its commitment to the refinement of analog sound quality and its continued development of new cartridge models.

Since 1948, Ortofon has introduced about 100 different Moving Coil models. We believe the cartridges in this new series are more than worthy successors to the long line of models that has made Ortofon the global leader in the manufacture and supply of phono cartridges.
