Phono & Turntable Cartridges

A phono cartridge, also called a turntable cartridge, is the transducer mounted at the end of the tonearm that converts the mechanical movement of the stylus tracing a vinyl record groove into an electrical signal. The choice between moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) designs, stylus profiles, and cantilever materials is the single most direct way to transform the sound of an existing turntable.

Vinyl Sound in Toronto, Canada carries one of the most comprehensive phono cartridge selections in Canada, with authorised dealer status for Ortofon, Hana, Dynavector, Grado, Nagaoka, Audio-Technica, Mobile Fidelity, My Sonic Lab, and Thorens.

Our cartridge collection spans entry-level moving magnet cartridges including the Ortofon 2M and 2MR series, Grado Prestige series, Nagaoka MP-110 and MP-500, and Audio-Technica VM95E, through mid-range and high-output MC cartridges including the Hana EH, EL, SH and SL, Dynavector DV10X5 MKII, and Mobile Fidelity StudioSilver. At the reference level, we carry low-output moving coil cartridges including the Hana ML and Umami Red, Dynavector Te Kaitora Rua and DRT XV-1t, Ortofon MC Verismo and MC Diamond, and the My Sonic Lab Eminent and Signature ranges.

Vinyl Sound's audio specialists in Richmond Hill, Ontario provide expert cartridge selection, phono stage matching, stylus force measurement, and tonearm alignment for every turntable setup, with shipping available across Canada.
