The Absolute Sound's 2015 Cartridge of the year award

With a titanium cartridge body literally built from the ground up using the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) manufacturing process, the MC A95 replaces the discontinued MC A90 in the Ortofon line up and improves performance in every area... The MC A95 achieves this impressive feat by building on the past few years of Ortofon's in-house technical advances in cartridge design and combining what this writer feels are the complementary attributes of MC A90 and Anna into a must-hear creation... This Ortofon is the most complete all-around cartridge to date in the current lineup." — TAS 2016 Golden Ear Award

The Ortofon MC A95 has gone to the next level by reducing unwanted vibrations and increasing the dynamic capability of the cartridge. Our extensive knowledge of vibration properties, characteristics in different shapes and materials, competences in magnetism, mechanical design and new technologies has been applied for optimization of the MC A95.                                                                Those who choose to adopt the MC A95 will experience the lifelike, open sound, with exceedingly clear midrange for a presentation that is unparalleled. The MC A95 remains extremely musical while paying close attention to micro dynamic details, with its delicate, but also analytical nature. - ToneAudio Product of the year 2016

 

Hi-Fi World September 2015  Reviewed by Noel Keywood
"...Dry, fast, extremely detailed and almost concussive, the A95 is a highly tuned mechanical statement. It is not lush, warm or cuddly, but rather a machine of insight and deep analysis...
...Massively capable, the A95 is a cartridge that makes the LP sound better all-round than I have ever heard it. Almost frightening!"

 

Anyone looking to move into the Ortofon line, the MC A95 deserves serious consideration and a serious audition. The Absolute Sound Dec 2015
 
 
The MC A95 is produced in limited series of only 500 individually numbered units.
 
Lovers of music will take note of a truly organic and encapsulating experience which transcends the boundaries of recording and undeniably blurs the distinction between what is live and what is recorded.
 
The new Ortofon MC A95 will undoubtedly provide sound which is literally unsurpassed and simply has to be experienced.  Of course, aesthetically, the MC A95 has a distinctive, elegant design which makes no compromises.
 
The new Ortofon MC A95 cartridge 
 
Improving on perfection
 
Ortofon is proud to launch the MC A95, a world class moving coil cartridge to commemorate the 95th anniversary of Ortofon’s technical leadership in the audio industry.  
 
With the MC A95, the bar is raised for its predecessor, the MC A90. The MC A95 not only celebrates the past 95 years of Ortofon, first and foremost it also makes history by significantly raising the standards by which sound reproduction is measured, making it a celebration of sound itself.

Flexibility and performance with a range of compatibility
 
With optimal weight and compliance to suit the vast majority of modern tonearms, the MC A95 is easily compatible with a seemingly endless array of modern contemporary high-end turntable equipment.
 
Low internal impedance makes the MC A95 less sensitive to load and therefore ensures compatibility with Ortofon ST-80 SE transformer, as well as with the widest range of preamps and transformers.
 
By combining the utilization of the SLM process, our patented WRD system and zero-resonance spikes, we are confident that the perfect mechanical integration of this cartridge with your tonearm will result in a significant and breathtaking increase in dynamics, resolution, and richness in detail.
