The Ortofon-Serato S-120 represents a completely new way of constructing and designing cartridges. Its breakthrough patent pending technology has been designed to provide you with maximum freedom for your performance. An innovative technology, called asymmetric suspension, takes the cartridge performance to the next level. Its superior tracking force ensures the S-120 stays in the groove even under extreme live performance conditions. In addition, its design achieves an unprecedentedly low level of record wear, which helps protect your valuable vinyl. On top of this, the S-120 is capable of providing a level of sound quality never thought possible from a modern DJ cartridge.

Not great for scratching / club use
I bought these Ortofons to replace my Shure M44-7 cartridges.The Ortofons fit perfectly on my Technics headshells, and have a nice quality feel to them. They actually sound a bit warmer than the Shures.Unfortunately, though, they bounce around like crazy. If you scratch, they jump. If you adjust the pitch on your turntable, they lose their tracking. The first night I used these at the club it was so painful. Bass vibrations and pushing the buttons on my Dicers caused them to skip. I even had the same horrible results after I added the extra weight part. Taped a penny on top of the cartridge as well and they are still very unreliable.If you’re a DJ looking to match the tracking ability of the Shures, you will be disappointed with these. Look elsewhere!

wow !
This might be your dream cartridge for recording and play back. This thing will track anything give it and the output is unbelieveable for recording your lowoutput lps. Sound is smooth and flat, couldn't ask for anything else. All the serantos have the same spects so take your pick, the two pack is best buy. Have fun. Crankitup long beach....mph
