Ortofon MC Windfeld Ti

Ortofon MC Windfeld Ti – Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge

The Ortofon MC Windfeld Ti stands among the pinnacle of moving-coil designs—a tribute to former Ortofon chief engineer Per Windfeld—featuring advanced engineering and elite materials to deliver dynamic purity, exceptional musicality, and reference-level vinyl playback.

 Premium Materials & Mechanical Precision

SLM Titanium & Stainless‑Steel Body
Constructed using Selective Laser Melting (SLM), the titanium core enhances rigidity while suppressing resonance, enabling greater dynamic range and precision. 

Wide Range Damping (WRD) System
A platinum disc sandwiched between rubber absorbers minimizes distortion and resonance across all frequencies, supporting ultra-linear response and superb tracking up to 90 μm. 

Stylus & Generator Excellence

Polished Nude Replicant 100 Stylus on Boron Cantilever
This exacting stylus profile and lightweight boron cantilever offer exceptional groove contact, superior high-frequency detail, and accurate transient capture. 

Aucurum Wire Quad-Coil Generator & FSE
Four coils made from gold-plated 6NX copper ensure ultra-low impedance (7 Ω) and excellent channel isolation. The Field Stabilizing Element further improves magnetic consistency and clarity. 

 Performance & Technical Highlights

Wide Frequency Range: Covers 10 Hz–50 kHz (-3 dB), pushing tonal accuracy beyond standard hearing. 

Output Voltage: 0.2 mV at 5 cm/sec delivers detailed MC output compatible with quality step-up transformers or MC preamps. 

Channel Balance: Tight tracking to within 0.5 dB at 1 kHz ensures consistent stereo imaging. 

Channel Separation: ~25 dB at 1 kHz (20 dB at 15 kHz) supports wide soundstage and minimal crosstalk. 

Tracking Ability: Excellent 90 μm at 315 Hz with 2.3 g VTF allows accurate groove tracing even in inner grooves. 

Compliance: 13 µm/mN lateral dynamic compliance matches a wide variety of tonearms, promoting resonance control and stability. 

Tracking Force: Optimal 2.3 g (range 2.0–2.5 g) balances groove contact and stylus longevity. 

Stylus Geometry: Tip radius r/R 5/100 µm with 23° tracking angle for enhanced alignment and detail. 

Weight & Impedance: 11 g body weight; DC resistance ~7 Ω, requiring load impedance over 10 Ω for optimum performance. 

 Sonically Refined & Universally Compatible

With its advanced damping, magnetic field stability, and premium stylus architecture, the MC Windfeld Ti offers an immersive sound that is detailed yet musical—warm midrange, deep yet controlled bass, and non-fatiguing highs. Its moderate compliance and optimized weight make it compatible with most high-end turntables and tonearms. Because of its balanced attributes, it performs well across genres—from orchestral to jazz to rock—with authority and nuance. 

The Ortofon MC Windfeld Ti is more than a premium cartridge—it’s an engineering statement. Ideal for vinyl lovers seeking emotional delivery with analytical depth, it offers a harmonious blend of precision, musicality, and versatility for ultimate analog performance.
