Ortofon LH-2000 Headshell

The Ortofon LH-2000 is a universal headshell made of solid aluminium – the straightforward entry point for mounting a cartridge on a tonearm with a universal connection.

Why this headshell?

Anyone who wants to swap their cartridge or switch between several cartridges needs a separate headshell per cartridge – the LH-2000 offers a solid, minimalist aluminium base with color-coded connector wires for this.

Who it's for (plain talk)

For universal tonearms with the 1/2" mounting standard looking for an affordable, unobtrusive headshell – for example for the 2M series. Anyone wanting finer resonance control should look at the LH-4000 with azimuth adjustment.
