The Cadenza Bronze is the third model up in the Cadenza range, and as is often the case with their Bronze models this one stands apart from its neighbours in the range. I would call it a bit less neutral than the models either side, with a warmer and slightly more laid back presentation which could appeal in certain systems. It's certainly not a boring listen, it just imparts a bit more of its own character and colour onto proceedings compared to the Blue and the Black. 

Technically at the sharp end there's a nude Replicant 100 diamond fitted onto a conical aluminium tube, and the generator wiring is Ortofons Aucurum gold plated OFC.

The compact body is made from a combination of stainless steel and aluminium which serve to damp one another producing a relatively lightweight and extremely rigid housing.

As MC cartridges do not have removable stylus assemblies Ortofon have an 'exchange' scheme where your old worn/damaged Ortofon MC cartridge is used as a credit against any other Ortofon MC cartridge. Please send us a message and we will calculate the cost to change for you, or visit the distributors website page here
