Ortofon - LH-9000 Headshell - Carbon Fiber & Magnesium

An exceptionally high quality magnesium/carbon fiber headshell, the LH-9000 is made using carbon fiber resin featuring a magnesium lift for the elimination of unwanted resonances. The LH-9000 is perfect for a variety of high-end cartridges or in situations where a heavy headshell is required for lowering resonance of stiff cartridges.

The LH-9000 comes with signal lead wires for easy and convenient connection. All Ortofon cartridges have a color coding of the terminals, indicating red and green for right channel, respectively hot and ground terminal. White and blue for left channel, respectively hot and ground terminal. Green terminal will always be used for grounding the cartridge housings or motor-system whenever connected inside the cartridge.

It is recommend to connect lead wires to the cartridge and headshell before mounting the cartridge. Please note correct orientation of the leads. Ortofon cartridges' terminal PINs diameter is 1.2 mm, while Ortofon headshells' PINs diameter is only 1.0 mm. This clip sizing is identical to SME headshell signal lead wires.
