Specially designed for monaural sound
Some legendary music was recorded in mono, and is being released as such for the enjoyment of audiophiles (example: The Beatles in Mono). Wouldn't you like to hear them as the original artist intended?
The Audio-Technica VM610MONO features a specialized body shape and internal wiring dedicated to top-notch monaural sound reproduction. The cartridge's dual moving magnets are internally linked in order to reduce noise and create a focused center image that you can't get from a stereo cartridge.
