Ortofon Stylus 5E Replacement Turntable Stylus Elliptical

The Ortofon Stylus 5E is a drop-in replacement stylus engineered to restore original sound quality to a broad family of Ortofon cartridges, including the Super OM, OM, OMB, OMP, TM, and Concorde STD series. Its elliptical diamond tip makes contact with a larger area of the record groove compared to conical designs, extracting more musical detail while reducing distortion and inner-groove tracking errors. With a recommended tracking force of 1.75 grams, it strikes a balance between accurate tracking and gentle treatment of your vinyl collection.

Installation is straightforward — the stylus clips directly onto a compatible Ortofon cartridge body without any tools or realignment. The 5E delivers a frequency response spanning 20 Hz to 20 kHz, covering the full audible range for faithful reproduction of everything from deep bass to delicate cymbal shimmer. For turntable owners looking to refresh their playback quality without upgrading the entire cartridge, the Stylus 5E offers a cost-effective path back to clean, detailed sound.
