[Product Description]
• Equipped with the headshell 'AT-LT10', which makes it easy to attach to universal arms: It features a lightweight design headshell 'AT-LT10' weighing approximately 10.0g* that is ideal for mounting screw-type cartridges. The lead wires use high-quality OFC (oxygen-free copper) conductors for excellent sound quality. The aluminum die-cast body ensures stable playback.
• Wide range of stylus options to meet desired sound quality: Equipped with a solid Shibata stylus that excels not only in high frequencies but also in rich mid and low frequencies. It provides clear and powerful sound imaging, capable of conveying the excitement of performances. The contact area between the stylus tip and the groove is large, making it less prone to stylus wear and long-lasting.
• Body features a Paratoroidal coil structure: The 'AT-VMx' series is characterized by a unique generator system called the Paratoroidal coil structure. This structure is unitized, with no seams in the core, allowing magnetic flux to be contained within specially wound coils. As a result, it improves power generation efficiency and achieves excellent linearity.
• Implements screw-type cartridge mounting holes: Compatible with integrated tonearms widely used in the global Hi-Fi audio market. The screw-type design makes it easier to attach the cartridge to integrated arms.
• Improved visibility of the stylus tip during operation: In previous VM-type cartridges, it was difficult to see the stylus tip when placing it on the record. This model enhances stylus tip visibility by adding a V-shaped cut to the protector as a guide for stylus position, while maintaining compatibility with previous models (replacement stylus and body).
