2M Series styles interchangeability:
The 2M Series' engines, coils and magnets configurations are not identical: Red and Blue are identical, so are the Bronze and Black and so are the true mono variants 2M Mono and 2M 78. Likewise, 2M series styli are interchangeable within the below combinations:
2M Red, 2M Blue and 2M Silver
2M Bronze and 2M Black
2M Mono and 2M 78
Spare Stylus - 2M Blue (interchangeable with 2M Red and 2M Silver)
Stylus life: with proper care, up to 1000 hours of stylus life is possible without any degradation in performance.
Compatible with Rega TT / TA brand:
The height of REGA brand cartridges from the needle tip to the top surface of the cartridge mount is lower than standard. Therefore, spacers would be needed to ensure the correct alignment of the Ortofon cartridge.
Adjusting the height of the Rega tonearm is easy with the Acoustic Signature pad set. It allows height adjustment from 0.5mm to 3.5mm in precise 0.5mm increments - without removing the tonearm. Simply loosen the screws, insert the AS spacer, then lock the screws back in place and you have a ready to play tonearm.
The 3.2 - 4 mm spacers should be sufficient for a 2M cartridge.
