    If you are new to the Concorde Music product line, consider starting with the Bronze, which will take you closer to the music than you've come so far with lesser cartridges in its price class. Live in the Bronze Age and experience insightful, high-resolution music reproduction!

    Propel Your Music with a Fine Line Stylus

    If you haven't heard a Fine Line stylus before, you are in for a treat with the Bronze. The shape of the Nude Fine Line diamond provides more faithful tracking of the groove. Unlike the Elliptical shape, the Fine Line has a narrower profile, yet its prolonged shape ensures sufficient contact with a wide area of the groove. It will propel your music with a whole new dimension of precision.

    An Easy Upgrade Path

    The Bronze provides an easy upgrade path should you wish to move beyond the Red or Blue Concorde Music cartridges. In fact, any Concorde Music cartridge can be directly upgraded all the way up to the flagship Concorde Music Black LVB 250. All it takes to upgrade is to replace your current stylus with a higher model Concorde Music stylus.

    Upgrading the stylus is a simple task. Simply pull off the stylus and replace it with the new one. Remember to keep the stylus guard on when installing the new stylus to keep the needle safe.

    The Concorde Music Series of Cartridges

    Developed by music lovers for music lovers, Ortofon's Concorde Music phono cartridges blend premium performance with an iconic design. Concorde Music isn't just a cartridge. It is a dedication to the profound impact music has on our lives, turning every listening session into a captivating journey.

    Installing a Concorde Music cartridge on a turntable is easy and straightforward. No tools are required and you don't have to be any kind of hi-fi expert, making the process hassle free and convenient. This is thanks to the bayonet connector, which makes it compatible with all S-shaped tonearms. The no-hassle installation, along with superior sound quality for the money, has been a huge factor in Concorde's historic success.

    Moving Forward with an Iconic Design

    Ortofon built upon a rich legacy when it launched the original Concorde cartridge. So, the new Concorde Music series possesses a storied history as one of the most famous cartridges in the world of audio.

    Originally developed as a solution to the challenge of easily mounting a quality cartridge on a tonearm without screws or wires, the Concorde's unique design earned the Danish Industrial Design Award. The cartridge soon became an icon in the audio industry.

    Rubber Suspension

    A crucially important and vital part of a phono cartridge's overall performance is the stylus suspension.

    Exclusive Ortofon rubber compounds are used for the stylus suspension in the Concorde Music Black. These are carefully produced by Ortofon's inhouse rubber production team and are the end result of long effort by the research and engineering team in its successful quest for brilliant performance.

    Advanced Coil System

    Concorde Music cartridges feature Ortofon's quad-coil generating system with four split pole pins. Silver-plated oxygen-free copper is chosen for the quad-coil system along with four Ortofon split pole pins. This results in exceptional channel balance and separation, delivering precise and dynamic sound. With a 6 mV output, this design offers lifelike sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity, capturing every detail.
