Pre-fit, pre-aligned, and prepared for serious sound quality right out of the box. Ortofon’s 2M Red is a multi-award-winning cartridge that plumbs the depths of your favourite records to deliver incredible resolution, expressive midrange and loads of musical insight. It’s no coincidence that the world’s most celebrated turntable designs are belt driven. Belt drive turntables are often more affordable to manufacture, making high-quality sound accessible to a broader audience. The CS 418 is a traditional belt drive turntable that offers exceptional value and performance.

Forget buying new components and cables just to play records. No phono? No problems. With an inbuilt phono preamplifier, simply plug in your turntable and play. And thanks to its inbuilt line switch, you can easily bypass the internal preamp when (and if) it’s time to upgrade.
