VM95 Series - Stylus compatibility
Every diamond stylus will wear out after a period of use: approximately 500 hours for a conical stylus, 300 hours for an elliptical, 1000 hours for a Microlinear, and 800 hours for a Shibata.
Our VM95 Series dual moving magnet cartridges can be used virtually forever by replacing the interchangeable stylus: there is no longer a need to purchase a complete cartridge when the diamond tip has worn out; you simply need to buy the appropriate replacement stylus.
The six VM95 Series cartridge models (AT-VMN95C, AT-VMN95E, AT-VMN95EN, AT-VMN95ML, AT-VMN95SH, AT-VMN95SP) all share the same electromagnetic motor body, which is why all six replacement styli are perfectly compatible with each other.
Bonded conical stylus
The advantage of a conical stylus is that, even when the cartridge is tilted, its spherical surface touches the groove of the vinyl record precisely.
