    Amazing Sound Quality

    Excellent for repairing Clearaudio Virtuoso

    For 49 dollars you cannot go wrong! It beats paying 900 dollars for a new Virtuoso (the cartridge that came with Marantz TT15 turntable). Its not an exact fit and will need to be slightly modified but you can find walk throughs online. Since installing it, I have tested it on several different vinyl records and have no complaints.

    OEM exact replacement for AT-VM95E

    Exact replacement for at-vm95E cartridge. Best bang for your buck between cost and sound quality. Audio technica has always punched above their weight all the way back to the 70s. This newest cartridge is a worthy successor to the AT95e that it's intended to replace. Also as a bonus, you can even buy more expensive needles that fit the same body or even go a step down from this to the conical stylus needle. They all fit the same cartridge body. But this one is the sweet spot for cost to performance. Being an elliptical diamond, make sure you use a protractor to align the cartridge properly for best sound and to avoid damage to the grooves of your records and longest life for the stylus.

    Not pricey, but gets the job done

    This is not a very high end, audiophile's item, but it is ideal for my need. I needed a replacement for a stylus that I broke (now I know a stylus can be broken) and this item fit the bill perfectly. It's very easy to install and now works like it's always been on my turntable cartridge.

Questions & Answers
  • what’s the difference between the colored needles and the white ones?

    Stylus construction. Within this series, the white one is a 3.0 mil bonded conical tip designed specifically for the playback of 78 RPM Shellac (SP) records. The remaining colored styli are for use with today's vinyl records. The blue is an economical 0.6 mil bonded conical tip, the green uses an 0.3 x 0.7 mil bonded elliptical tip for improved high frequency performance, the orange uses the same tip as the green but the stylus is nude, not bonded, giving the orange extended high frequency response and improved transient response.The red uses a nude micro linear shape tip on a square shank.The micro linear shape has a more narrow side radius and a longer vertical contact ridge. The micro linear tip is our longest wearing tip and it traces the groove with a high degree of accuracy and low noise. The brown uses a Shibata tip on a square shank. The Shibata profile is similar to the micro linear tip but it has a distinct, more focused sound with some mid-bass warmth. If your system sounds too bright, the Shibata tip can help tone it down. Nude styli will have improved transient response and detail compared to a bonded styli of the same shape and size. A square shank is more expensive to manufacture than the traditional round shank, but it allows for more precise indexing of the cantilever thanks to a corresponding laser cut square hole in the cantilever.

  • Can I replace an AT11E (See photo) with this stylus?

    No you cannot, the AT-VMN95E Replacement Stylus is not compatible with your cartridge. The AT11E Cartridge, and its ATS11E stylus, have been discontinued for quite some time. We have no stock remaining of any replacement styli from that family, and nothing that is currently available that is compatible with that cartridge body. Time for a new cartridge, like the AT-VM95E Cartridge which includes the AT-VMN95E Stylus.

  • Will this fit a Technics SL-1700 MK2. Thanks for the help

    No, it will not, not JUST the replacement stylus anyway. You need the entire cartridge complete with stylus, the AT-VM95E Cartridge. https://www.audio-technica.com/cms/cartridges/af5bd3ae747e0165/index.html

  • Will this fit a Teac TN 300 turntable?

    According to your turntables documentation, our AT95E Cartridge was supplied with it. Please confirm this. If it is the AT95E Cartridge, the only replacement styli available for your cartridge is the ATN95E or the ATN95EX Replacement Stylus. PLEASE NOTE: the AT-VMN95E Stylus is not compatible with the AT95E Cartridge, only with AT-VM95E Cartridge which is an updated version of the cartridge.

  • Will this work with the BSR Quanta 400 turntable. Thank you for your time. Regards.

    Only if your BSR turntable has an AT-VM95 Series cartridge on it. Instead of purchasing the stylus (stylus ONLY), you may want to replace the cartridge complete with stylus. This will be the AT-VM95E Cartridge.
