The LH-6000 is a high quality headshell recommended for the MC Windfeld Ti and the Cadenza series. The rounded front section facilitates correct mounting and complements each of these cartridges.
Knowing the basic headshell dimensions makes it easier in many cases to mount and align the cartridge and tonearm correctly. Please scroll to the bottom of the page to see the headshell mounting dimensions overview chart.
The LH-6000 is supplied with connecting wires to ensure an easy and convenient connection.
All Ortofon cartridges are colour coded with the terminals marked 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.
