Product Summary
The Audio-Technica AT-VM95EN is a moving magnet cartridge from the widely respected VM95 series, designed to deliver detailed and balanced vinyl playback while remaining easy to install and upgrade. It uses Audio-Technica’s dual moving magnet generator design, positioning two magnets to mirror the left and right groove walls for accurate stereo separation and stable channel balance.
The cartridge features a 0.3 × 0.7 mil nude elliptical diamond stylus mounted on an aluminium cantilever. Compared with bonded elliptical designs, the nude stylus construction improves energy transfer and groove tracking accuracy, helping recover greater musical detail while reducing distortion.
Like all VM95 cartridges, the body is compatible with the full range of VM95 replacement styli. This means the stylus can be replaced when worn or upgraded to more advanced stylus profiles without changing the entire cartridge, making the AT-VM95EN a flexible and long-term option for vinyl systems.
