Ortofon 2M Bronze

Yes... it is possible.

The internal generator is nearly identical.

Not according to Ortofon site. They say the bronze and black are ok to switch but none of the lower end models. I get contrary response on the other thread about this.....guess that guy thinks he knows more than the manufacturer of the device. This is a dangerous way to live.

Yes you can change to the Bronze stylus but it may not sound right or a well as you expect.

You mean, in other words don't do it?

It would be around $440.00 to purchase the entire new Bronze cartridge. Just would like to save a little cash if possible. Thanks, Boogerhead.

If you want to save, It would be better to purchase an entirely different cartridge for $280 with Nude LineContact stylus designed by Mitachi Corporation in Japan and made for Astatic in the 70’s. The model called Astatic MF-100 and you can search on audiogon, it was very popular model when many of us searched for the best ever MM. The cartridge is actually Moving Flux with square shank nude LineContact type diamond. For $280 it is a sleal !! Directly from Japan in New Old Stock condition, if you’re not happy you can return it under paypal buyer’s protection with no loss for you, but the seller is legitimate (i've bought carts from his in the past), he has a bunch of them without boxes, they are new (never used). Just seach ebay for Astatic MF-100
