The LH-4000 is a simple, high-quality headshell that has been specially developed for hi-fi applications. With its clean, minimalist design, the LH-4000 is suitable for a wide range of cartridges and is particularly recommended for the MC Quintet series.
The LH-4000 is supplied with connection cables for easy and convenient connection.
All Ortofon cartridges are colour coded with red and green for the right channel, hot and ground respectively. White and blue for the left channel, respectively for the hot and the earth connection. The green terminal is always used to ground the cartridge enclosure or motor system whenever it is connected inside the cartridge. We recommend that you connect the connection cables to the cartridge and headshell before mounting the cartridge on the headshell. Please ensure that the connections are correctly aligned. The diameter of the connection pins of the Ortofon cartridges is 1.2 mm, while those of the Ortofon headshells are only 1.0 mm.
