Product Summary

The Dynavector 20X2A is a high-performance moving coil phono cartridge designed to deliver detailed, dynamic and engaging vinyl playback. Known for its natural musical balance and strong tracking performance, the 20X2A is a popular choice for listeners looking to step into high-quality moving coil cartridge designs.

This cartridge is available in both high output and low output versions. The high output version is suitable for use with most moving magnet phono inputs, while the low output version is designed for dedicated moving coil phono stages or systems using a step-up transformer.

The 20X2A features a nude diamond MicroRidge stylus mounted on a solid aluminium cantilever. This advanced stylus profile allows extremely accurate groove tracing and improved retrieval of low-level musical detail across the record surface.

Dynavector’s unique magnetic flux damper and softened magnetism system help reduce distortion while maintaining excellent tracking ability. Combined with a rigid aluminium body, the cartridge offers a stable platform for precise analogue playback with strong stereo imaging and extended frequency response.

Our Trustpilot reviews

★★★★★
What an amazing company. Anna in the Glasgow branch has been so informative and helpful with my order. Sam in the Aberdeen branch has an incredible knowledge of older amps and speakers.
Alan

★★★★★
Jesse is very professional and always happy to help in the Glasgow Audio store. He is very knowledgeable about the products. Highly recommend.

Kyle

★★★★★
Dropped in not really knowing what I wanted. Sam was most helpful, steering me towards a solution, and avoiding going over the top. From that we moved on to updating our wifi coverage towards a network. Here, Alain was equally helpful.

Dean

★★★★★
The guys at Holburn Hifi were fantastic from start to finish. Explained everything clearly and in simple terms which I really appreciated as I was lost amongst all the info I had seen online. There was no hard sell and certainly an understanding of my budget. I can’t recommend Holburn Hi Fi highly enough. Thanks to Ian, Sam and Christian.

Richard

★★★★★
I bought a full system from the Aberdeen shop. Christian was very attentive throughout the whole process. I found that all the staff in the shop were both knowledgeable and helpful. I would strongly recommend Holburn Hi-Fi to anyone thinking about buying a full or part Hi-Fi system.
