Audio-Technica AT-VM95SH VM Phono Cartridge

Audio-Technica AT-VM95SH VM Phono Cartridge is a high-performance member of Audio-Technica’s VM95 Series, fitted with a nude Shibata stylus for exceptional detail, tracking and low distortion. With its dual moving magnet design, aluminium cantilever and threaded mounting body, it delivers serious hi-fi performance while remaining easy to install and upgrade.

Key Features

• VM95 Series dual moving magnet cartridge with 2.7 x 0.26 mil Shibata stylus for extended high-frequency response and superb detail retrieval.
• Nude square-shank Shibata diamond makes broad contact with the groove walls, reducing wear and tracking inner grooves with greater accuracy.
• Aluminium pipe cantilever for low moving mass and precise groove tracing.
• Excellent channel separation (23 dB @ 1 kHz) and low distortion for a spacious, stable stereo image.
• VM95 body compatibility, accepts any AT-VMN95 replacement stylus (C, E, EN, ML, SH, SP), giving clear upgrade and replacement options.
• Low-resonance polymer housing with threaded inserts, allowing mounting to a standard 1/2" headshell using just two screws (no nuts required).
• Made in Japan, reflecting Audio-Technica’s long heritage in phono cartridge design.
