Enter the Exclusive World of Ortofon’s Famous Moving Coil Sound!

The Quintet Red is a perfect introduction to the world of Ortofon moving coils. It features an Elliptical diamond which is cut and polished to Ortofon’s standards.

This entry-level MC cartridge has very high price-to-performance ratio and is a perfect all-rounder for the newcomers to the world of Moving Coil cartridges.

MC Quintet Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth.

The ST-7 transformer is a perfect match for the MC Quintet Red cartridge.

LH-4000 headshell is specially recommended for MC Quintet cartridges series.

Ease of Use

Top-mounting of the Quintet cartridges is easy and secure using the screws supplied. The aluminium frame has threaded mounting holes and is fitted easily with the 5mm or 7mm screws depending on the thickness of the headshell.

The Quintet series’ right angles, straight lines, stylus visibility and ample distance between the record surface and the cartridge’s bottom will make it easy to mount and align the cartridge and tonearm correctly. The Quintet Series gives excellent results with most common tonearms.

The Quintet Story

Nothing demonstrates Ortofon's long-standing resilience more than its commitment to the refinement of analogue sound quality and its continued development of new cartridge models. Since 1948 Ortofon has introduced about 100 different Moving Coil models. We believe the cartridges in this new series are more than worthy successors to the long line of models that has made Ortofon the global leader in the manufacture and supply of phono cartridges.

The MC Quintet Series is a Direct Result of Continued Research and Innovation

The MC Quintet Series is congruent with Ortofon’s unrelenting commitment to providing the most precise and accurate reproduction possible without coloration:

  • A special ABS (Acrylonitrile/Butadiene/Styrene) thermoplastic material is used for manufacturing of the body. This light-weight, impact resistant material is very suitable for injection-moulding and provides a very durable scratch resistant surface.
  • Neodymium magnets are implemented to achieve an optimal output.
  • Low internal impedance makes the cartridge less sensitive to load and therefore ensures compatibility with the widest range of preamps and transformers.

It is the aim of Ortofon to bring their customers many hours of new and surprising experiences in listening to their precious vinyl collection.

Each of the Five Quintet Series Cartridges has its own Individual Sonic Expression, and all Five Models Together Represent the Ensemble of Five Classic Variations

  • MC Quintet Mono is a true mono cartridge for playing mono microgroove vinyl records
  • MC Quintet Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth
  • MC Quintet Blue adds more dynamics and resolution, sounds more open and reproduces more details
  • MC Quintet Bronze adds even more details and resolution but in a very even-handed way that pays respect to all elements
  • MC Quintet Black S is the best of everything, true to the groove with resolution and accurate insight into each recording

Love this color brown! Very nice shirt!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown, Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown
Purchased for my husband for a fall wedding! The fit was great and it was wrinkle resistant. The material was soft and comfortable. It was warm enough for a fall wedding but also breathable and he looked amazing in it! I LOVE the color!

Vary comfortable
Size: X-Large, Color: Brown
I really like these shirts. I got one in the brown color because I didn't have a nice brown shirt. They fit so well and they have a very smooth feel, almost like silk. My wife said that I look great and that's what matters most. She also likes the fact that they are wrinkle free so there's less ironing. 😃 I now have five different colors, and they all fit perfectly, and I love the way they look and feel. Thank you

Great Color Dress shirt
Size: Medium, Color: Light Green
I purchased this dress shirt for my husband when he needed something to wear as a wedding guest. My dress had a bit of turquoise in it so we thought this would be a good compliment to what I was wearing. We ordered his normal dress shirt size and this was a perfect fit.My husband is slim and it was nice that this shirt wasn't boxy at all. The neck was a comfortable size and the arm length was spot on. He has nicer, more expensive dress shirts of better quality but this seemed to work out just fine for what we needed. The color was a nice shade of turquoise.. not too green and not too blue so we lucked out in that area also. We did wash this before wearing. My husband didn't complain about any stiffness/scratchiness etc.the whole day! I would say anyone wanting to purchase this shirt, that they will be pretty happy with the overall fit and comfort.

A dress shirt that allows for needed length.
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Green
Very nice dress shirt for a reasonable price, and for a size XL, the sleeves are actually long enough. The fit is relaxed and looked very professional, with a tie if one is appropriate.
