Audio-Technica VM740ML cartridge

AUDIO-TECHNICA VM740ML CARTRIDGE

Audio Technica's VM740ML phono cartridge features a MicroLine stylus which enables extremely accurate groove tracking. The VM740ML is furnished with a die-cast aluminum alloy housing which reduces vibration while adding a natural electrical shield. The VM740ML is equipped with a VMN40ML MicroLine nude stylus that traces the groove with incredible accuracy, resulting in nuanced audio reproduction that elliptical and conical styli simply can't match. The stylus's multilevel shape also wears better than other styli, while reducing the wear on your records.
