I have heard the complaint that you cannot easily change the stylus on a MC cart when it is at the end of it's lifespan like you can with a MM cart, hence the increased running costs. Well now with this official Ortofon Trade-In Program you have no more excuses for not running the far superior MC range.

You may trade in an old Ortofon Moving Coil cart on an equivalent or better model.

The condition of the old cartridge is not important.

You pay the cost of the new cartridge less the Trade-In Value below.
