Ortofon MC 90X Cartridge

The MC 90X is a reimagining of a classic, combining precision engineering with advancements in material science and magnetism.

Building on the groundbreaking technology of the MC A90, the MC 90X features a stainless-steel structure crafted using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology, along with the Field Stabilizing Element, Wide Range Damping, Ortofon Replicant 100 Diamond stylus, and newly developed proprietary Ortofon rubber dampers.


Accuracy level

For over a century, Ortofon has been dedicated to delivering music with clarity and precision. Our latest cartridge is designed to help you rediscover the sounds that have shaped your life.

Beneath its sleek blue steel exterior lies a blend of craftsmanship and innovation. It captures each note with the warmth and depth that vinyl offers, complemented by the modern technology that has made Ortofon a trusted name in audio for generations.



Replicant 100 - The finest diamond in the world

Stylus

Achieving linear reproduction with a wide frequency range and optimal tracking requires a diamond that closely mimics the original cutting stylus. The Ortofon MC 90X features the Replicant 100 diamond, renowned for its thin, light profile and exceptionally large contact surface, allowing it to trace grooves with unmatched precision.

The diamond’s shape, combined with a special polishing process and a Boron cantilever, ensures exceptional transparency, speed, and responsiveness, delivering exceptional sound quality for an immersive audio experience.


Neodymium magnet with FSE

Magnet system

The magnet system is inspired by the designs of previous iconic models including the Kontrapunkt series, the MC Jubilee, and the MC Windfeld. It is based on an extremely strong, compact neodymium magnet, which makes the generator system both compact and lighter through its minimal dimensions.

Ortofon’s Field Stabilizing Element, a small cylinder of conductive material strategically placed inside the magnet system, guarantees that the force field remains stable regardless of the movement of the armature. FSE improves the channel separation, while at the same time minimizing dynamic distortion and intermodulation. The result: fantastic dynamics and even more elbow room between the musicians. You simply experience more drama and greater breadth, height and epth in the sound scenario!


Building on the groundbreaking technology

Selective Laser Melting technology

Building on the groundbreaking technology of the MC A90, the MC 90X features a stainless-steel structure crafted using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology. The use of stainless steel in the MC 90X cartridges enhances the overall rigidity of the structure, cartridge weight, and dynamic capability. This robust material not only contributes to superior sound quality but also ensures that the cartridge is compatible with a wider range of turntables. By achieving the optimal weight, the MC 90X maintains a perfect balance, allowing for exceptional performance across various setups.

In-House Rubber Production for Ultimate Performance

Refined Damping System

A standout feature of the Ortofon MC 90X is the Wide Range Damping (WRD) system. This advanced system employs a platinum disc placed between two rubber absorbers with distinct properties, ensuring superior tracking and effective damping across the entire frequency range. This design minimizes distortion and resonance, enhancing sound clarity.

Good Fit, Fold Lines
5'9, around 125-130 pounds, and the Small fit me just fine. Adjuster strap provides a great range of... adjustment. Good waistcoat if you are looking for something quick and cheap. With it being cheap, however, the material suffers. Due to it being folded while in shipping, there are seem lines going down the sides of the waistcoat which make it poke out and look awkward.

Great vest for a great price!
This vest is more slim fitting, stylish, & flattering than many vests. It fits as expected, but it is adjustable in the back, so you do have some wiggle room to tighten & loosen it if you’re unsure about the size. My son wore this vest to homecoming. He is 5’ 10” & 150 lbs, & the size small was a good fit.

Great Quality Vest
Great quality vest versatile for all occasions. I personally felt it ran a bit tight (I ordered a large and felt like I was sucking in a bit the whole time) but I think an XL would have been too big. Overall impressed and happy with purchase.
