Stylus 2M Silver
The 2M series styli are interchangeable within the following combinations: 1) 2M Red, 2M Blue, and 2M Silver, 2) 2M Bronze, 2M Black, and 2M Black LVB 250, 3) 2M Mono and 2M 78.
2M styli interchangeability
Special for 2M Red, 2M Blue, and 2M Silver phono cartridges: The 2M Silver will be an upgrade compared to 2M Red due to a special suspension and silver-plated copper wire material. The 2M Blue is an upgrade compared to both 2M Red and 2M Silver thanks to the Nude Elliptical diamond which retrieves information from the groove with a higher accuracy.

Ich habe eine 2M-Red gegen die 2M-Silver getauscht. War das Red schon eine hochwertige Nadel ist die Silver eine Nuance hochwertiger.Die Auflösung ist feiner ohne die Bässe zu vernachlässigen. Diese kommen klar und knackig und schwimmen nur an den Stellen, an denen es in der Musik auch gewollt ist.Alles in allem ein lohnender Kauf, zudem die Nadel nur €10,- mehr Ausgabe verlangt.Preis-Leistung stimmen hier nicht - für den Preis ist die Leistung zu hoch ;-).

Per chi come me' non sopporta il suono strillante della 2M Red, ne vale la pena sostituire lo stilo. Premetto che preferisco il suono delle vecchie Ortofon serie OM più vicine al suono del vinile che la serie 2M che sembra di ascoltare il CD. Devo ancora terminare le 50 ore di rodaggio, ma fin da subito si è capito che è meno strillante della Red a vantaggio di una riproduzione sulle medie e basse frequenze migliorate. Ho sostituito solo lo stilo sul corpo della Red e credo che sostituendo l'intera cartuccia suoni ancora meglio visto che se pur compatibile con il corpo Red/Blue differisce nei materiali della Silver originale. Tutto sommato meglio che buttare tutto! Consiglio.

Le remplacement d'une 2M Red se fait en 2 secondes, juste en clipsant celle ci sur le support. Upgrade agréable et pas trop onéreux

I'd like to think I can hear subtle differences between the Red, Silver, and Blue- all of which I own, but it could be wishful thinking.I like all of them on my Fluance, and so if you have a $500 turntable all three of these are great. Best way I can explain it is that Rock sounds best with the red, and jazz records the blue, and everything sounds good with the silver, even with just a few hours on it. It's why I recommend the silver.As far as the negative reviews, I can't imagine a stylus that came without the stylus, but I do know they all come with a cover you have to remove. Also, the loose fit: this will appear to snap into place without actually fitting fully in. Make sure it seats. Downforce...I like the old fashioned visual balance method and then I confirm it with my digital scale. I never just use the scale and the Fluance is a little squirrely using just my eyeball.

Stylus arrived without a needle. Utterly worthless.

I believe it sounds a little better than the red right out of the package. Isn't broken in but sounds nice!

Just popped it on the cartridge, removed the stylus guard, cleaned the stylus and started listening.

This replacement stylus supposedly was a direct replacement (upgrade) from the Ortofon 2M Red, but the fit between the Head and the stylus is really loose.There is no way to have a tight fit. Such a waste of money, this stylus is not usable.

This is a great stylus, sound is crystal clear, seems to be a big improvement over the 2M Red stylus ( I had the red cart, so needed to replace a older stylus) Great value for the money on my NAD turntable, wondering if Ortofon will offer the full silver cartridge in the future. Should sound even better once it breaks in.

I use it to replace for a 2 M Blue stylus in a 2M Blue cartridge,due it’s price,.It works really very well, and after a small qty of using hours it became fantastic, it sound fairly different than the Blue , but I really like it very much

Actually this is my second purchase the needle is definitely better than the red and that is a decent needle. The price was reasonable and the service is good. What more can you want when spending money!
