This pre-mounted cartridge gets you in the groove
What makes one stylus better than another? The shape and mounting of the stylus — the tiny diamond that traces a record’s grooves — is where small changes make a big difference in sound quality. The Audio-Technica VM540ML features an advanced 2.2 x 0.12 mil MicroLine stylus that gets deep into the cut and reproduces the smallest details of the music.
