Ortofon X1-MC and X1-MCP are very high output MC cartridges

Both the X1-MC and the X1-MCP are very high output moving coil (MC) cartridges with an elliptical stylus profile. The X1-MCP was designed for use with P-Mount (T4P) type tonearms. Perfect for inbuilt phono preamps or standard moving magnet (MM) preamps, the X1-MC and the X1-MCP profiled a taste of the linearity and precision of moving coils without the need for additional high gain preamps or transformers.
