Audio-Technica AT-VM530xEN Dual Moving Magnet Phono Cartridge
The Audio-Technica AT-VM530xEN Dual Moving Magnet phono cartridge is engineered to deliver greater realism, precision, and musical detail from your vinyl collection. Part of the AT-VMx series, it features a lightweight nude elliptical stylus (0.3 × 0.7 mil) that tracks record grooves with higher accuracy than bonded designs, extending frequency response while reducing distortion and record wear.
Like all AT-VMx cartridges, the AT-VM530xEN mirrors the geometry of professional record-cutting heads using a 90° V-shaped generator layout. This design enhances tracking accuracy, channel separation, and stereo clarity. Optimized PCUHD copper coils improve transient speed and tonal nuance, while the low-resonance polymer housing and aluminum cantilever ensure stable, consistent playback across a wide range of musical material.
