Audio-Technica AT-VM760xSL Stereo Cartridge

The special line contact stylus is designed to trace the record groove with extreme precision. This shape minimizes record wear while retrieving more high-frequency detail than standard elliptical or conical styli.

Boron is significantly stiffer and lighter than aluminum. This allows the cantilever to transmit vibrations from the stylus to the magnets much faster, resulting in more dynamic and responsive musical playback.

The cartridge features a die-cast aluminum body with threaded M2.6 inserts, which simplifies the mounting process. You will only need a standard screwdriver to attach it to your headshell, eliminating the need for fiddly nuts.

The VM architecture mirrors the design of the original vinyl cutter head, which ensures the left and right channels are perfectly aligned. This design, combined with a center shield plate, significantly reduces crosstalk for a wider and more accurate soundstage.

The recommended tracking force range is 1.8 to 2.2 grams, with 2.0 grams being the standard setting. We recommend using a digital stylus force gauge to ensure you are within this range for optimal performance and record longevity.

Yes, the AT-VM760xSL is designed to fit standard half-inch mount headshells found on most high-fidelity turntables. Ensure your tonearm can accommodate the 8.8-gram weight of the cartridge and that your phono stage supports moving magnet (MM) inputs.
