Product Summary
The Audio-Technica AT-VM750xSH is a premium VM dual moving magnet phono cartridge from the latest VMx Series, combining a nude Shibata stylus with a solid boron cantilever for highly detailed, dynamic vinyl playback. The cartridge is designed to deliver a rich and spacious presentation, with particularly strong mid-to-low frequency reproduction and precise stereo imaging.
Its nude Shibata stylus provides a large contact area with the record groove, allowing it to trace fine musical information while helping to minimise wear. The advanced line-contact profile is paired with a 0.28mm solid boron cantilever, selected for its rigidity and ability to transmit stylus movement rapidly and accurately to the cartridge generator.
The AT-VM750xSH uses Audio-Technica’s dual magnet VM architecture, with magnets positioned to correspond with the left and right channels of the stereo record groove. Paratoroidal coils improve generating efficiency, while a centre shield plate helps reduce crosstalk between the two channels for cleaner stereo separation.
Audio-Technica also uses PCUHD® (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability) for the cartridge’s coil conductors. Combined with a reduced number of coil turns, this is designed to provide powerful bass, an expansive soundstage and improved transient response.
With a 3.7mV output and recommended 47kΩ load impedance, the AT-VM750xSH is designed for use with conventional moving-magnet phono stages. Its recommended load capacitance is 150 to 250pF, helping provide straightforward system matching with a wide variety of quality integrated amplifiers and standalone phono preamplifiers.
Installation is simplified by threaded M2.6 mounting holes built into the cartridge body, allowing the cartridge to be attached to a compatible headshell or integrated tonearm using screws without requiring separate nuts. The redesigned flip-up stylus protector also incorporates a V-shaped cut-out that helps indicate the stylus tip position when cueing a record.
The AT-VM750xSH accepts the replaceable AT-VMN50xSH stylus, making it possible to renew the stylus assembly without replacing the complete cartridge body.
