Concorde MKII Twin Mix
Multi-purpose scratching and back-cuing
ABOUT THE CARTRIDGE SET
Two cartridges, one flight case, zero worries
The Ortofon Concorde MKII Twin Mix comes with two complete Mix cartridges, each featuring a factory-fitted spherical stylus, packed in a rugged aluminum flight case. Equip both decks with identical, matched cartridges—or keep one as an instant backup for gigs where failure is not an option.
Just click it on and start mixing
Thanks to the integrated headshell design, there is no alignment required, no screws, and no wiring. Each cartridge screws directly onto any standard S-shaped tonearm with a bayonet (SME) connector, and you're ready to play in seconds.
A true all-rounder
The Mix is a general-purpose model designed for mixing, scratching, and back-cueing alike. Its spherical diamond stylus and solid aluminum cantilever deliver transparent sound across the entire spectrum, reliable groove handling, and a clean, balanced 6 mV output—the longest-running combination of features in DJ cartridges.
Who is the Twin Mix for?
DJs who use two turntables and want the same sound on both decks, as well as professional DJs who always carry a spare. The included flight case keeps both cartridges protected between gigs, making this set the practical, cost-effective way to equip a full DJ booth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why buy a twin set instead of two single beds? The twin set includes a protective aluminum flight case and is priced more attractively than two individual cartridges—ideal for two-deck setups or carrying a backup.

Which turntables are they compatible with? All DJ turntables with a removable headshell and a standard bayonet/SME connector—Technics, Pioneer PLX, Audio-Technica LP120 series, Reloop, and many more.
Can I replace the styluses? Yes. Each stylus can be replaced with a new Stylus CC MKII Mix in seconds—no tools, no realignment.
