The Audio-Technica AT-VM95E/H is a ready-to-fit cartridge and headshell combination, pairing the popular AT-VM95E dual moving magnet cartridge with the AT-HS6BK headshell. It is a practical upgrade or replacement option for compatible turntables, especially for users who want improved vinyl playback without having to mount the cartridge separately. The AT-VM95E features a bonded elliptical stylus, designed to follow the record groove more accurately than a standard conical stylus. This helps improve frequency response and phase response while reducing distortion, giving records a cleaner, more detailed and more controlled sound. As part of Audio-Technica’s VM95 Series, the cartridge also uses an interchangeable stylus system. When the stylus wears out, you can simply replace the stylus rather than buying a whole new cartridge. You can also upgrade to another compatible VM95 Series stylus later, making it a flexible long-term choice. The cartridge comes pre-mounted on Audio-Technica’s AT-HS6BK headshell, which uses a 9g aluminium die-cast body. The full set is assembled and tested at Audio-Technica’s factory in Fukui, Japan, helping ensure reliable performance straight out of the box.
