Product Description
Ortofon OM5E phono cartridge is a budget benchmark, so much so that it's included with many Pro-Ject turntables as the cartridge of choice from factory. With a good sound and robust build, its a great budget choice. Replacement styli are available seperately.
Optimum Match
Ortofon's Optimum Match (OM) cartridges match most tonearms perfectly. An OM cartridge makes it possible to upgrade the performance of an entire music system very easily by upgrading the stylus. With the OM cartridge you instantly hear the improvement. Music you've heard many times takes on new dimensions.
Distortion Free
The OM 5E is a magnetic cartridge (MM) with an elliptical shaped stylus that provides balanced and distortion-free playback for general purpose applications. If your tonearm has a standard headshell or a cartridge mount, then step up to optimal sound reproduction with OM’s.
A glance at anyone of these cartridges will reveal Ortofon's answer to perfect tonearm matching. Ingeniously tucked into the top of the mounting bracket is a tiny, removable weight-plate.
Compatible
If your tonearm is an standard tonearm, just leave the weight-plate. If your tonearm is one of the low mass types, then simply remove the weight. The mass of your OM cartridge is now a mere 2.5g

Good value speakers sound good enough with my computer. No where near as good as my hifi system but for the size of the speakers they are very good. The subwoofer helps and the supplied cable is long enough. A recommended system.
