The Audio-Technica VM530EN cartridge is the top model in the company's catalog, equipped with an elliptical stylus in the VM series. The cartridge is housed in a polymer body, the lower part of which has a bright orange color. Like all VM series models, the VM530EN cartridge is equipped with two separate magnets and coils with a patented winding, which has improved its technical parameters and increased the sound quality.
Features:
- Cartridge type: V-shaped dual magnet (VM);
- Stylus with precision elliptical cut;
- Improved stereo channel separation;
- Increased output signal level.
The elliptical stylus of the cartridge with very small physical dimensions of the contact area precisely follows the groove of the vinyl record, providing accurate and detailed sound reproduction. The stylus holder is made of aluminum with high precision and, despite its low mass, has high rigidity and resistance to resonance. The two-magnet design, combined with a special internal partition, provides good stereo channel separation and a natural image placement. In addition, the VM530EN cartridge develops an output voltage of 4.5 mV with extended frequency and dynamic ranges, making the sound rich and noise levels minimal. To increase output without a significant increase in head weight, its coils have a para-toroidal winding. All necessary mounting accessories are included with the cartridge.
The precise assembly and adjustment of the VM530EN cartridge ensure its compatibility with various turntable models and tonearms, and this cartridge can even be used for high-end models. The extensive experience accumulated by Audio Technica in creating cartridges in both affordable and high-priced categories guarantees their models an attractive combination of quality and value, with the VM530EN being a good example of this. This cartridge is highly reliable and, when properly installed and adjusted (which is not difficult at all), it is capable of providing excellent music reproduction in various genres.
