At its heart is a microlinear stylus, which tracks record grooves with unmatched precision, outperforming traditional elliptical and conical stylus shapes for superior sound resolution. The stylus’s lighter tip and advanced solid boron cantilever ensure quick vibration transmission, delivering every nuance of your music just as the artist intended.\u003cbr\u003e\nPrecision Design for Pure Stereo\u003cbr\u003e\nThe VM740XML features a die-cast aluminum housing to suppress unwanted vibrations and resonance, resulting in a cleaner, more immersive listening experience. Advanced paratoroidal coils and a PCUHD (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability) coil system guarantee efficient electrical performance, enhanced channel separation, and an impressively lifelike, three-dimensional soundstage. With a center shield plate to minimize crosstalk, you'll enjoy incredibly clear stereo playback from any record in your collection.\u003cbr\u003e\nEffortless Installation and Versatile Compatibility\u003cbr\u003e\nInstalling the VM740XML is simple thanks to integrated threaded inserts—just two screws and no nuts required, making it a breeze to mount on any turntable headshell accepting 1\/2\" cartridges. The innovative V-cut in the flip-up stylus protector offers precise stylus positioning for safe cueing. Plus, easily experiment with your vinyl setup: the cartridge is compatible with most Audio-Technica AT-VMx and VM replacement styli, so you can tailor your sound to your preference. Rediscover the best in analog audio with this premium moving magnet cartridge.\u003cbr\u003e\nKey Features\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMx dual moving magnet cartridge with microlinear stylus\u003cbr\u003e\nMicrolinear stylus tracks the record groove with incredible accuracy, providing more nuanced sound reproduction than elliptical and conical styli\u003cbr\u003e\nSignificantly lighter stylus tip (compared to previous model) allows for more precise tracing of the record groove\u003cbr\u003e\nSolid boron cantilever quickly transmits vibrations from the record groove, ensuring accurate reproduction of dynamic musical passages\u003cbr\u003e\nDie-cast aluminum housing reduces vibrations and resonance\u003cbr\u003e\nParatoroidal coils improve generating efficiency for enhanced channel separation, channel balance, and transient response\u003cbr\u003e\nPCUHD (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability) coils – and fewer coil turns – deliver highly responsive, three-dimensional sound reproduction with excellent transient response\u003cbr\u003e\nCenter shield plate between the left and right channels reduces crosstalk for clear stereo sound\u003cbr\u003e\nThreaded inserts make cartridge easier to mount, especially to integrated tonearms\u003cbr\u003e\nV-cut in the flip-up stylus protector shows stylus position, serving as a guide for lowering the stylus onto a record\u003cbr\u003e\nCompatible with any turntable headshell that accepts 1\/2\" cartridges\u003cbr\u003e\nCompatible with most AT-VMx series replacement styli,* offering a wide choice of options for every budget and application\u003cbr\u003e\n*Excludes mono models\u003cbr\u003e\nFeatures\u003cbr\u003e\nEasy to Install \u0026amp; Use\u003cbr\u003e\nEach AT-VMx cartridge body has threaded inserts, enabling it to be mounted to a headshell with just two screws – no nuts required. And the redesigned stylus protector now includes a V-cut for easy reference of the stylus’s position when lowering it onto a record.\u003cbr\u003e\nHighly Efficient Generator\u003cbr\u003e\nThe paratoroidal coil construction of the cartridge’s generator – two PCUHD coils per channel, one stacked behind the other – greatly improves electromagnetic performance, while a slight reduction in coil turns* enhances transient response for clean, lifelike sound.\u003cbr\u003e\n*Compared to VM series cartridges.\u003cbr\u003e\nInterchangeable Styli\u003cbr\u003e\nSince all AT-VMx and VM Series cartridges share the same body design and have a removable stylus, you can use almost any AT-VMNx or VMN replacement stylus* with any VMx or VM cartridge for easy experimentation with sound characteristics.\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN10xCB (conical\/bonded\/aluminum cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN20xEB (elliptical\/bonded\/aluminum cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN30xEN (elliptical\/nude\/aluminum cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN40xML (microlinear\/nude\/aluminum cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN45xML (microlinear\/nude\/boron cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN50xSH (Shibata\/nude\/boron cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\nAT-VMN60xSL (special line contact\/nude\/boron cantilever)\u003cbr\u003e\n* Excludes mono models\u003cbr\u003e\nAll in the Design\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Vertical Dual Magnet (VM) design closely mirrors the cutter head used to make the vinyl master.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe standard cutter head (used to record the vinyl master) uses two transducer coils, mounted perpendicular to each other at 45° from horizontal, to cut the channel: one in each wall of the 90° record groove.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe AT-VMx cartridges use the same 90° V-Shape configuration as the cutter head. This way, the cartridge achieves accurate tracking, excellent channel separation, high definition of the stereo image and extreme clarity over the entire audio spectrum.\u003cbr\u003e\nRound or Square Shank?\u003cbr\u003e\nThe stylus shank is the piece that connects the tip to the cantilever. A round shank can be more difficult to align when it is affixed to the cantilever. Proper alignment is needed in order to position the stylus tip precisely in the record groove. Square shank styli cost more to make than round shank styli, but mounting them in laser-cut square holes in the cantilever locks them in precise alignment with the record groove.\u003cbr\u003e\nBonded or Nude?\u003cbr\u003e\nIn a bonded (or jointed) stylus, a diamond tip is glued on a metal shank that is itself glued into the hole of the cantilever. While less expensive to manufacture, this construction may increase the mass of the overall tip and affect transient response compared with a nude stylus where the tip and shank are constructed from a single piece of diamond.\u003cbr\u003e\nRead More\u003cbr\u003e\nCalifornia customers\u003cbr\u003e\nProposition 65 WARNING\u003cbr\u003e\nWARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003e\nGeneral\u003cbr\u003e\nColor\u003cbr\u003e\nGold | Red\u003cbr\u003e\nType\u003cbr\u003e\nCartridge\u003cbr\u003e\nBrand Compatibility\u003cbr\u003e\nAudio-Technica\u003cbr\u003e\nQuantity\u003cbr\u003e\n1\u003cbr\u003e\nFrequency Response\u003cbr\u003e\n20 to 25,000 Hz\u003cbr\u003e\nChannel Separation\u003cbr\u003e\n25 dB (1 kHz)\u003cbr\u003e\nVertical Tracking Force\u003cbr\u003e\n20°\u003cbr\u003e\nTracking Force\u003cbr\u003e\n1.8 to 2.2 g (2.0 g standard)\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the Box\u003cbr\u003e\n2 x Cartridge Installation Screws (M2.6) (10.0 mm (0.39\")\/ 8.0 mm (0.31\")\/ 5.0 mm (0.20\")), 2 x Washer, Non-Magnetic Screwdriver, Brus\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Load\u003cbr\u003e\n47 k ohms\u003cbr\u003e\nImpedance\u003cbr\u003e\n3.2 k ohms (1 kHz)\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Weight\u003cbr\u003e\nUnit Weight (lbs.)\u003cbr\u003e\n0.02\u003cbr\u003e\nPackage Weight (lbs)\u003cbr\u003e\n1\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Dimensions\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight (in)\u003cbr\u003e\n1.1\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth (in)\u003cbr\u003e\n0.72\u003cbr\u003e\nDepth (in)\u003cbr\u003e\n0.69\u003cbr\u003e\nPackage Size HxWxL (in)\u003cbr\u003e\n2 x 3 x 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Audio-Technica","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68010215309461,"sku":"VM740XML","price":124.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3808\/9877\/files\/audio-technica-cartridge-AT-VM740xML-front-angled.jpg?v=1792512348","url":"https:\/\/noosclub.shop\/products\/audio-technica-dual-moving-magnet-cartridge-vm740xml-235719","provider":"ThursdayShoes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
