Audio Technica AT-VM95SH

The AT-VM95SH, features a Nude Shibata stylus, one of the most acclaimed stylus format by high end audiophiles. The Shibata stylus produces mid and bass sounds strong and rich in addition to offer a frequency response up to 25,000 Hz. Aluminium cantilever 3.5mV output voltage Compatible body with all VM95 Series stylus assemblies 20 to 25,000Hz frequency response VM95 Series - Styli compatibility Every cartridge diamond stylus becomes worn after a period of play. Around 500 hours for a conical stylus, 300 hours for an Elliptical stylus, 1000 hours for a Microlinear stylus, and 800 hours for a Shibata stylus. Our VM95 Series dual moving magnet cartridges can be used almost forever by replacing the interchangeable stylus. It is no longer necessary to purchase a complete cartridge when your diamond is worn out, you can simply buy the matching replacement stylus, but also enjoy the experience of upgrading your cartridge with a different stylus. The six models of VM95 Series cartridges all use the same electromagnetic engine-body, therefore each of the six replacement styli are perfectly compatible. AT-VMN95C, AT-VMN95E, AT-VMN95EN, AT-VMN95ML, AT-VMN95SH, AT-VMN95SP AT-VM9E Series compatibility with the AT-XP Series DJ Cartridges The electromagnetic engine-body of XP-Series, is fully compatible with all replacement styli of VM95 Series and will deliver more output voltage than VM95 Series cartridge. So providing improved compatibility with phono inputs of Professional DJ Mixers. VM95 Series electromagnetic engine-body is also compatible with the three replacement styli of the DJ cartridge AT-XP Series, nevertheless, the electromagnetic engine-body of XP-Series, will deliver more output voltage than VM95 Series cartridge in order to provide better compatibility with phono inputs of Professional DJ Mixers. Note that typical tracking force when using XP Series styli is three grams as opposed to two grams for VM95 Series styli. The suspension design and compliance of XP-Series styli have been optimized for intensive DJ’ing, including possible manual cueing and back-cueing. The VM95 Series suspension design and compliances of VM95 Series have been designed for optimum audiophile reproduction.

Grado Prestige Green 3

Color me awesomeBoth the Black3 and Green3 use a three piece OTL cantilever that has a Grado specific diamond mounted on a brass bushing. The Green3 are hand selected from Black3 production runs which meet higher test specifications. Approximately 15% of the run usually exhibits these specs and become a Green3.Grado’s OTL, or optimized transmission line, technology provides an ideal transfer of signal from the surface of the LP to the generator of the system. This technology rejects unwanted resonances and lowers distortion preserving the fundamental and harmonic frequencies of the music. This also helps keep noise generated by the motor system in the cartridge to a minimum.Grado’s OTL stylus/cantilever design makes records sound quieter, improves the height, width, and depth of the soundstage, and present more detail than previously obtainable.The Black3 & Green3 are all hand assembled by our team in Brooklyn, with some builders having over 25 years of experience. With the recent development of the highly received Lineage Series of cartridges, we were able to have a trickle down of technology and bring a new technique to the Black3 & Green3. This updated series of cartridges offers excellent tonal balance, dynamics, and realism, for a most rewarding reproduction of vocals and instruments. Our coil winding techniques, using ultra high purity copper wire which were honed during the development of the Lineage Series, have let the electrical circuits achieve unison between the four coils in each phono cartridge. This allows for a precise balance between channels and accurate stereo imaging.As in all Grado phono cartridges the Black3 & Green3 are powered by a twin magnet system that optimizes the balance between stereo channels. All internal magnetic circuit parts are held to extremely high tolerances creating the desired stereo imaging. Grado’s patented Flux-Bridger design allows the Black3 & Green3 to have one of the lowest effective moving mass generating systems while creating an excellent balance throughout the full frequency range.The development of the Epoch in the Lineage Series gave us an in-depth experience with using an outer housing as a damping device. This led to the creation of a process which de-stresses the chassis and dissipates unwanted energy & resonant frequencies, allowing the desired signal to travel freely.

Rega Elys 2

Rega's classic MM cartridgeThe Elys 2 is a hand-built stereo moving magnet (MM) cartridge, made in England, and the successor to the popular Super Elys. Every unit is assembled by hand by Rega's skilled technicians with one simple aim: to retrieve as much detail and music from the record as possible. It combines an elliptical stylus, an aluminium cantilever and Rega's three-point mounting, and is easy to recognise by its blue body.Upgrade and factory-fitted optionRega recommends it as an upgrade for the Planar 2 and as an ideal match for the Planar 3 and Planar 6, and it suits every Rega turntable. In Greece the Planar 3 is also available with the Elys 2 factory-fitted. With an output of 6.8 to 7.2 mV it works comfortably with any MM phono stage, from the Fono Mini A2D MK2 and Fono MM MK5 to the phono stages of Rega amplifiers. On turntables from other makers it requires a headshell with three-point mounting.Rebuild and warrantyThrough the Rega rebuild scheme, a worn or damaged cartridge can be returned to a Rega dealer and exchanged for a rebuilt unit with a new cantilever, stylus and pivot pad at a reduced price. The Elys 2 is covered by Rega's Lifetime Limited Warranty against manufacturing defects.
