The AT-OC9XSH Dual Moving Coil cartridge with special line contact stylus is designed to provide outstanding channel separation. The Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting (PCOCC) coils ensure pure audio transmission and are aligned in a reverse V-shaped formation to exert less pressure on the stylus, thereby minimizing distortion. Audio quality is further enhanced by a rigid aluminum body that reduces resonance, a neodymium magnet and premium permendur yoke that dramatically increase the magnetic energy, and the nude special line contact stylus on a boron cantilever that tracks the record groove with ultimate accuracy, delivering rich, full-range audio and high transient response. The cartridge body has been pre-threaded, enabling it to be mounted to a headshell or integral tonearm with just two screws – no nuts required. Dual Moving Coil design, featuring independent coils for both left and right channels, provides outstanding channel separation. The coils are aligned in a reverse V-shaped formation, which exerts less pressure on the stylus, thereby minimizing distortion. The cartridge body is pre-threaded, enabling it to be mounted onto the headshell or integral tonearm with just two screws – no nuts required. Features nude Special Line Contact stylus and boron cantilever with accurate tracking ability and high transient response. A neodymium magnet and permendur yoke provide dramatically increased magnetic energy. Aluminum body minimizes unwanted vibration for reduced resonance and superior audio reproduction. Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting process (PCOCC) is used for the coils to achieve pure signal transfer.

The Audio-Technica AT-VMx series enhances its premium dual moving magnet cartridges with greater warmth detail and realism. Featuring dual magnets aligned to the stereo groove it delivers excellent channel separation and frequency response. Upgrades like PCUHD® copper wire and reduced coil turns improve clarity and transient response. The paratoroidal coil design and center shield plate reduce crosstalk for a cleaner stereo image. Practical features include easy-mount threaded inserts and a V-cut stylus guard for precise placement making the VMx series a refined user-friendly choice for high-quality vinyl playback.As its name indicates the AT-VM610xMONO is designed for playing mono records. The dual magnets in this cartridge are internally connected to reduce record noise and obtain a highly focused “center” sound image that stereo cartridges can’t provide.FeaturesAT-VMx Dual Moving Magnet CartridgeConical Bonded Stylus (0.6 mil)Paratoroidal Coils Improve Transient ResponseCenter Shield Plate Reduces CrosstalkDurable Low-Resonance Polymer HousingAluminum CantileverCompatible with Any Turntable Headshell That Accepts 1/2” CartridgesPCUHD® (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability)Like all VMx cartridges the AT-VM610xMONO features PCUHD® (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability) resulting in richer more nuanced audio reproduction. The number of coil turns has also been slightly reduced to improve transient response allowing the cartridge to react more quickly to signal changes for stunningly clean music with lifelike immediacy. The 0.6 mil conical bonded stylus of the AT-VM610xMONO tracks the center of the record groove for reliable performance and excellent fidelity.Easy to Install & UseEach VMx cartridge body has threaded inserts enabling it to be mounted to a headshell with just two screws
