Audio-Technica AT-VM95ML Dual Moving Magnet Cartridge with Microlinear Nude Stylus,red

Product Information

The performance of a line contact stylus, will minimize the “inner groove distortion” as well as providing extended frequency response and maximize resolution in the medium and high frequencies of the audio program material. The results are impressive, there's very little surface noise compared to the Goldring and the microlinear stylus picks up a lot of detail from the grooves.

I will listen to these both without A/Bing soon, so I can get an overall sense of the performances rendered by each.The AT-VM95ML, features a Nude Microlinear diamond, not only the Microlinear stylus will permit to double the life of the stylus. Ultimately the VM95ML hits its resolution ceiling, above which it cannot go, no matter how sophisticated the arm and phono stage. I have read and practiced over the years that you do want to turn on that last bit, which is above the -6db threshold (6 x the bit rate is the dynamic range). Ultimate portrayal of instrumental performance technique is also slightly blurred – extremely rapid series of notes are homogenized, and fine dynamic changes within those lines averaged out.

The VM95ML Microlinear gave the flattest frequency response of all with very little loss on inner grooves. Now it absolutely hates a dusty record and I regularly clean it with a carbon brush but when set up correctly it's a stellar performer and superb value for money.We use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features and to analyse our traffic.
