Munich High End 2012
|
Again the High End show was a big success.
The exhibition center MOC with its unique combination of exhibition halls and small showrooms is a great thing, and together with an excellent show management is a good beginning for a successful show.
However, a good show is made up by products and visitors. We did our bit by showing again the MC Anna and the new 2M Versos, 2M Mono and 2M 78 models.
In Munich we met many our partners from Asia, North and South America and almost every country in Europe.
|
|
|
|
Munich High End is also a place where you meet reviewers, journalists, colleagues and competitors, but most important is an opportunity to meet the owners and users of the Ortofon cartridges.
|
|
It is always gratifying to talk about the products with our customers, answer to the questions and help with information.

The new Ortofon TSW-6000 Silver and Interconnect 6NX-MPR 30 cables
|
|
|
|
|
The new TSW-6000 Silver tonearm cable
With increased focus on creating the best path for the low voltage signals from the cartridge, silver has been chosen to lower the impedance of the cable, which increases the conductivity of the cable.
Together with the double high density shields, the signal from the cartridge has optimal conditions even though it is used in the real world.
TSW-6000 Silver cable's sound is focused and transparent, which is well known for silver cables, backed up with long lasting Rhodium plated terminals.
|
|
The new Reference 6NX-MPR 30 mini-jack cable
More and more audio equipment is portable with only a mini-jack connector available.
These devices often are used with a poor standard cable, and could benefit greatly from a high quality cable terminated with quality connectors on both ends.
Reference 6NX-MPR 30 mini-jack cable is composed of 6N (99.9999%) high purity copper and PCOCC, and the terminals are gold palted on a solid brass body.
