Ortofon SPU Royal G MkII

Ortofon SPU Royal G MkII

The SPU Royal G and N models were released in 1998, together with the Jubilee cartridge to celebrate the Ortofon 80 year anniversary.

The SPU Royal G MKII provides a playback experience that embodies the essence of analog, with generous refinements which bring the legendary SPU cartridges into the realm of unrivaled perfection.

The addition of Ortofon’s unique Replicant 100 stylus and reduced tip mass ensures open and detailed sound reproduction for a purely exquisite listening experience.

Electrum coils, consisting of a gold and silver alloy, provides uncolored and precise transmission of armature movements while the slightly modified damping system makes it possible to reduce VTF and achieves a higher level of linearity.

High purity 6-nines copper wiring ensures impeccable signal transmission and preservation of the finest of microdynamic detail.
