An advanced cartridge in a lightweight headshell
The Audio-Technica VM95ML/H pre-mounts the VM95ML cartridge in a lightweight aluminum AT-HS6BK universal headshell. The headshell is made to fit a standard 4-pin, 1/2-inch mount for compatibility with a wide range of turntables.
The included cartridge features an advanced, carefully shaped stylus that reads a record groove accurately and reproduces the smallest details of the music. When you're talking about the warm, natural sound of great vinyl, that small difference can mean everything.

Beautiful sound. I had purchased a secondhand Technics turntable with the original cartridge and it played ok. I then installed this new cartridge, and the results were amazing.
