The Ortofon 2M Bronze has a slim profile fine-line stylus. This guarantees low distortion and balanced reproduction across the entire frequency range. The Ortofon 2M Bronze plays better in every respect than its two little brothers, the Ortofon 2M Red and the Ortofon 2M Blue. An upgrade to the higher quality Ortofon 2M Black is possible by fitting the Ortofon Stylus 2M Black stylus carrier.

The Ortofon 2M Bronze Verso is mounted to the headshell from below using interchangeable threaded pins (2mm and 2.5mm diameter). This means it fits many Thorens headshells, for example, which only allow the pickup to be mounted from below.
