Equipped with the AT-LT10 headshell for easy universal arm mounting: The AT-LT10 headshell is lightweight, weighing approximately 10.0g*, and ideal for mounting threaded cartridges. The lead wires feature OFC (oxygen-free copper) conductors, renowned for their sound quality. The aluminum die-cast body ensures stable playback.
A wide selection of stylus options to meet your sound quality needs: This is the standard elliptical stylus model with a bonded elliptical stylus. Tracing distortion is reduced, resulting in more accurate signal extraction.
Body features a paratoroidal coil structure: The AT-VMx series features a unique power generation system called the paratoroidal coil structure. The paratoroidal structure is unitized and has a seamless core, so magnetic flux is retained within the specially wound coil. This results in improved power generation efficiency and excellent linearity.
Threaded cartridge mounting holes: Compatible with integrated tonearms, which are widely used in the global Hi-Fi audio market. The change to a threaded design makes cartridge mounting to an integrated arm easier. Improved visibility of the stylus tip during operation: With conventional VM-type cartridges, we received feedback that it was difficult to see the stylus tip when dropping the stylus on a record. With this model, while ensuring compatibility with previous models (replacement styli and bodies), we have added a V-shaped cut to the protector as a guide for stylus positioning, improving the visibility of the stylus tip.
