audio cartridges
Best Buy customers often prefer the following products when searching for audio cartridges.
You might not think of your cartridge as a separate component, but it is. And while you can play vinyl without a cartridge, you can't play records without a stylus. It's the key piece of hardware that connects your turntable to your amplifier, and it's an important part of the playback chain. So when shopping for a new turntable, here are some cartridges to consider.

The VM540ML/H combo kit includes the VM540ML MicroLine® dual moving magnet cartridge premounted on the AT-HS10BK universal 1/2"-mount headshell. The VM540ML MicroLine stylus cartridge is the premier 500 Series model in Audio-Technica’s new VM cartridge line – a line that harks back to A-T’s early days as a manufacturer primarily of high-end phono cartridges, while also incorporating today’s advanced technology. Like all VM cartridges, the VM540ML is equipped with dual magnets that are positioned to match the left and right channels in the stereo record groove for outstanding channel separation and extended frequency response. The cartridge’s MicroLine stylus allows it to trace the record groove with incredible accuracy, resulting in nuanced audio reproduction that elliptical and conical styli simply can’t match. The stylus’s multilevel shape also wears better than other styli, while reducing the wear on your records. Includes mounting hardware. VM dual magnet cartridge with MicroLine stylus. Aluminum cantilever. Paratoroidal coils improve generating efficiency. Center shield plate between the left and right channels reduces crosstalk. Durable low-resonance polymer cartridge housing. Universal ½"-mount headshell for 4-pin turntable cartridges.Top comment"Great cartridge...This cartridge brings much more crispness and clarity to my system, highly recommend....I recently purchased a new Audio Technica turntable and put this tonearm, cartridge on.

Model: AUD ATVMN95SHSKU: 6409707Top comment"Only sounds good on old vinyl...VM95SH is not the clearest sounding stylus, it has some good strengths, low noise and rumble being one of them, but doesn't sound as good as the two lower cost styluses. I think that the only time I liked it was when playing older pre 80's albums. ...I found a nice 1980's Sony turntable on ebay. This improved sound 100%. Just use on near mint albums and your gold."
