Pro-Ject Pick it S2 MM

The Pro-Ject Pick It S2 MM is manufactured by Ortofon pickup experts in collaboration with the Pro-Ject design team. It is equipped with a special elliptical needle tip. The system provides detailed and comprehensive imaging. Attached to a strong cantilever, which is also used in DJ cartridges, this cartridge system not only sounds great but is also very stable.

The pickup consists of a unique combination of technologies. Among others Ortofon's well known "Split Pole Pins" technology. This enables a flat frequency response comparable to that of MC pickups. The superior highs provide a warm and dynamic sound. Inspired by the diamond on the pin, the Pick It S2 MM impresses with its beautiful design and unique semi-transparent grey colour. This system fits perfectly with most Pro-Ject turntables.
