Ortofon MC Salsa cartridge

Ortofon MC Salsa 

The MC Salsa is a value-priced low output MC cartridge with a highly polished, nude fine line diamond

The MC Salsa cartridge features medium mass and medium compliance, therefore produces excellent compatibility with most tonearms, while the nude fine line diamond resolves a high level of detail for recordings with a higher level of complexity.
