Ortofon Finds New Home at Interdyn
Interdyn, distributors of Devialet, OPPO, Rotel, Polk, Pro-ject and more, have announced today they have been appointed as Australian and New Zealand distributors of Ortofon.
Sam Encel, Director at Interdyn told StereoNET:
With their 97-year history and a rich tradition of innovation in sound, we couldn't be more excited to have the privilege of working with this company. The Ortofon product range caters to practically any vinyl listening situation conceivable. From their range of true mono cartridges and vintage designs to their newly released MC A95, which employs computational resonance analysis and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques, Ortofon undoubtedly have the best cartridges on offer at every price point.
All Otofon products are made in Denmark to stringent quality standards. Ortofon's first moving coil magnetic cartridge was launched in 1948 and, due to demand from enthusiasts, similar variations of that product are still manufactured today.
Founders Alex Petersen and Arnold Poulsen at the Palace Cinema Theatre in Copenhagen, October 1923
The new distribution agreement is effective November 1st, 2015.
Encel continued:
Our focus will be on a wide range, excellent support and reliable supply. Already we have over $100,000 of the range on hand, and for our NZ customers, stock will be stored locally at our Auckland warehouse. We've already received our first order including a huge variety of cartridges up to the flagship MC Anna ($8,999 RRP).
Interdyn say that are committed to representing Ortofon in Australia and New Zealand, and together with a dedicated brand manager, they'll be building bigger brand awareness for Ortofon.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
