It combines an integrated Concorde-style body with a pre-mounted stylus, simplifying installation on compatible tonearms. This single-cartridge package is suited to DJs, vinyl listeners, and users transferring records to digital formats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Club model uses a Special Elliptical diamond stylus to trace record grooves with greater contact area than a spherical tip. This profile is designed to retrieve fine musical detail and maintain a clear, articulate presentation. It is intended for normal playback as well as lighter back-cueing and scratching techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn 8 mV output voltage gives the cartridge a strong signal for phono preamps and DJ mixers. The higher output can reduce the amount of gain required from the preamp stage. Ortofon also specifies this design for use in studio, broadcast, club, archival, and sampling applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts aluminum cantilever supports a Special Elliptical stylus with a 13\/25 μm tip radius. The cartridge is specified for a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range and 25 dB channel separation at 1 kHz. With a recommended tracking force of 3 g, it is engineered for stable playback within its stated operating range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Concorde MKII format mounts directly to turntables equipped with a compatible bayonet-style removable headshell connection, so no separate headshell wiring is needed. It is a practical upgrade for a DJ setup where sound detail and a high-output phono signal matter. When the stylus reaches the end of its service life, the compatible Stylus CC MKII Club replacement is available separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Elliptical Stylus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Retrieves detailed information from record grooves for focused vinyl playback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8 mV Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides a strong signal to compatible phono preamps and mixers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Concorde Mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits compatible turntables with removable bayonet-style headshell connections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum Cantilever:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports accurate stylus movement during record playback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 g Recommended Tracking Force:\u003c\/strong\u003e Establishes the intended setup point for stable tracking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaceable Stylus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accepts the Stylus CC MKII Club replacement stylus.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Concorde MKII Club has an integrated cartridge-and-mount form factor with an 18.5 g cartridge weight. Its aluminum cantilever carries a Special Elliptical diamond stylus, while the MKII design includes a large stylus viewing cutout for clearer needle placement. The finger lift is a separate, replaceable, and interchangeable component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the cartridge by attaching its bayonet connector to a compatible removable-headshell tonearm, then balance the tonearm and set tracking force within the specified 2 to 4 g range; Ortofon recommends 3 g. Use it with a phono input or external phono preamp having the stated 47 kOhm load resistance and 200 to 600 pF load capacitance. Keep the stylus tip clean and replace it with the dedicated Stylus CC MKII Club when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ortofon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45669414469702,"sku":"CC-MK2 CLUB SINGLE","price":209.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/4163\/5910\/files\/61gDBghGa3L.jpg?v=1784500132","url":"https:\/\/audiowatt.store\/products\/ortofon-cc-mk2-club-single-concorde-mkii-club-cartridge","provider":"Audio Watt Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
