This book reveals the remarkable history of a company that for 100 years has always been in the business of acoustics. Indeed, for that timespan, Denmark itself, has been recognised as the land of acoustics, with many companies designing innovative products. The country retains that reputation today.

Ortofon has played a significant role in creating a rich heritage for Danish acoustics. We believe that enviable legacy is best protected and continued by the development of exciting new products and keeping Ortofon viable for the future. As you will discover in the book, the list of Ortofon’s famous and groundbreaking products is a long one.

Music historian Kevin Howlett has written this history of 100 years of Ortofon based on a firm foundation of exhaustive research in various archives and in-depth interviews with past and present employees from the 1970s until now. We are indebted to all the many friends and colleagues who gave so generously of their time to contribute to this book.

Ortofon Print & Design

Founded in 1918 by two Danish engineers, Axel Petersen and Arnold Poulsen as Electrical Phono Film Company, the company’s aim was to explore the possibility of high-class recording and developing one of the first synchronized sound film systems in the world. Nowadays, Ortofon is a powerhouse that’s responsible for some of the world’s best high-end cartridges known to mankind. Ortofon benefits from being established in Denmark, a country known for a strong tradition in acoustics as well as manufacturers that produce high-end audio tools. Ortofon items are manufactured in South Denmark’s Nakskov by experienced operators at modern machines to guarantee the best quality. Ortofon DJ cartridges, styluses and headphones are applauded by DJs, musicians and discerning listeners alike. Delivering highly accurate sound reproduction, Ortofon Concord and OM cartridges are the DJ community’s favorite choice.
