Designed together with DJ QBert for scratch and back-cueing, the OM turntable needle has a very good ability to find the groove and stay there. It uses a spherical diamond and enables a very high output (10—11 mV). The turntable cartridge comes with an extra Q.Bert stylus.

Several Ortofon technologies make it possible to get high sound quality and low record wear at the high tracking forces that are necessary in club environments. Artists all over the world claim very high demands to their professional DJ equipment, among which the Ortofon cartridges play a decisive part by realizing that scratching, back-cueing, and live artistic performance are a big part of the show. Reliability and robustness is vital, when the cartridges night after night will have to withstand these demands in environments with extreme sound pressure and vibration.

Scratching and back-cueing impose heavy mechanical stress on the cantilever and its rubber bearing. Therefore, the Ortofon cartridges are equipped with cantilevers made from aluminum tube with increased wall thickness. Special attention has also been paid to the attachment of the bearing and the design of the bearing itself. This means that rough treatment will neither damage these replacement cartridges nor degrade their stability.

For easier cueing, the nose of all the Ortofon cartridges have an extra large cutout which makes the stylus freely visible from above, and further, the tip of the cantilever is fluorescent.
