Audio-Technica AT-VM95EN Cartridge | Nude Elliptical Stylus

The Audio-Technica AT-VM95EN cartridge is a step up in the VM95 Series, designed for vinyl enthusiasts who want more detail and accuracy from their records. Featuring a 0.3 x 0.7 mil nude elliptical stylus, it offers superior groove contact compared to bonded ellipticals, resulting in clearer highs, tighter bass, and better overall definition.

The lightweight aluminum cantilever ensures fast, precise tracking, while specially wound coils boost output voltage for a more dynamic signal. The cartridge body is built from a durable, low-resonance polymer, reducing unwanted vibrations for a cleaner sound.

Like all VM95 models, the AT-VM95EN cartridge features a universal body design with interchangeable styli, giving you the freedom to upgrade or swap between conical, elliptical, microlinear, or Shibata styli depending on your listening style.

Installation is simple thanks to threaded inserts in the housing—mount it to any 1/2” headshell with just two screws, no nuts required. Audio-Technica also includes installation accessories in the box: two 11 mm screws, two 8 mm screws, and two washers, so you have everything you need for an easy mount.

With its refined tracking and open sound, the AT-VM95EN is an ideal upgrade for turntable owners looking to hear more depth and detail in their vinyl collection.

👉 Tracking force range: 1.8 – 2.2 g
👉 Sweet spot: 2.0 g (gives the best balance of sound quality and stylus/record life)
