The Audio-Technica VM740ML Turntable Cartridge features dual moving magnets that are positioned to match left and right channels in the stereo record groove and improve channel separation as well as extending the frequency response. Additionally, the cartridge employs a MicroLine stylus, which allows it to trace the record groove with superb accuracy, resulting in nuanced audio reproduction that elliptical and conical styli simply can't match. The stylus' multilevel shape also wears better than other styli, while reducing the wear on your records.
- VM dual magnet cartridge with MicroLine stylus
- Aluminum tapered cantilever
- Paratoroidal coils improve generating efficiency
- Center shield plate between the left and right channels reduces crosstalk
- Die-cast aluminum alloy housing reduces vibration and adds a natural electrical shield
