Reloop taps into Orfoton's considerable cart skills, and brings out the Reloop Vibe — an elliptical stylussed (is the even a word?) Concorde cart for DJs.
While vinyl may be going the way of VHS, DJs are still hanging in there. And Ortofon hooked up with Serato to bring one last push of inventiveness to the technology. The S120 is a gem of a cart, and I tore it apart to explain it.
Ortofon is celebrating its 100th birthday with a reinvention of its flagship Concorde cart. The MKII comes in 5 striking models that broadly match the needs and wallets of DJs. A key element of the new model is the replaceable lifter, meaning no more low rent fixes with plastic ties.
"I swear — it just came off in my hand". The lifter that is. And the new Play Again will not only fix your broken Concorde, but will add colour too.
Ortofon celebrated their 100th birthday by unleashing the Concorde MKII DJ cartridges, coincidentally the same year that Shure said they'd had enough of the whole thing. Drew Bach tries out the MIX MKII and CLUB MKII to see if a birthday party is in order.
US: "Is the Shure M44-7 discontinued?". Shure UK: "No it is not". And here's the full story.
