The AT-VM95EBK is Audio Technica’s excellent entry level dual moving magnet cartridge, designed as the successor to the legendary AT95E and benefiting from the development work introduced with the AT95EX.
With its bonded elliptical stylus, aluminium cantilever and redesigned low resonance body, the AT-VM95EBK delivers a clear, balanced and engaging sound that makes it a superb choice for anyone looking to upgrade from a basic cartridge or replace an older favourite.

Clear, Balanced Sound With Elliptical Stylus Performance
The bonded elliptical diamond stylus tracks the groove more accurately than a conical stylus, helping to improve frequency response, phase performance and overall clarity while reducing distortion. The result is an open, musical presentation with strong detail and very good all round balance across a wide range of records.
Improved Body Design for Lower Resonance
The AT-VM95EBK features a redesigned cartridge body with a more rigid, low resonance construction. This helps the cartridge perform more cleanly and consistently, allowing it to retrieve more information from the groove with improved stability and focus.
Easy Installation Without Nuts
A particularly useful feature of the VM95 Series is the inclusion of two M2.6 threaded inserts in the cartridge body. This allows the cartridge to be mounted to a headshell or integral tonearm using just two screws, with no separate nuts required, making installation simpler and more convenient.
Each cartridge is supplied with:
- one pair of 8mm M2.6 screws
- one pair of 11mm M2.6 screws
- two plastic washers
Upgrade Easily With the VM95 Series
One of the biggest advantages of the VM95 Series is its interchangeable stylus design. When the stylus wears out, there is no need to replace the full cartridge body. You can simply fit the correct replacement stylus, or upgrade within the VM95 range to explore a different sound signature and higher levels of performance.
