Stylus for Ortofon VNL.

In ViNyL we trust
Even before the launch of the Concorde MkII, we have always studied the feedback of our customers and how they utilize our products.

Skilled DJs demand specialized tools that can help them push their creativity to the edge – consistently testing the boundaries in the realm of performance.

Understanding this and reflecting our extensive experience in industrial design and technological know-how, we present the new Ortofon VNL cartridge – a model tailored uniquely to the unrelenting demands of modern turntablists and portablists.

The new VNL features and improvements
• Extra resistance to hardcore scratching and back spinning
• High tracking performance for both DVS usage and real vinyl
• Optimal balance of output and of sound quality

Technological improvements have been applied for the benefits of all users:
- Ultrasonic welding of the components ensures high rigidity and freedom from resonances.
- Robotic assembly of stylus assembly offers high precision and uniformity of industrial production.

VNL III compliance, dynamic lateral 14 μm/m N - Firm

REPLACEMENT STYLUS FOR VM530EN
Elliptical Nude stylus
Nude Round Shank construction
Orange

Der AT-VM95EN besitzt eine nackte,
elliptische Diamantnadel mit Rundschaft,
die aus einem Stück geschliffen und
direkt in den Nadelträger eingesetzt
wird. Auf diese Weise lässt sich ein
leichteres, steiferes Übertragungssystem
realisieren als mit einer gefassten
Diamantnadel mit Titan-Rundschaft wie
beim AT-VM95E. Die nackte
Diamantnadel ist zwar um einiges
kostspieliger, bietet aber auch eine
hörbar bessere Audioqualität mit
besonders hoher Klangtreue bei der
Höhenwiedergabe und hervorragendem
Impulsverhalten.

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.

ELLIPTICAL NUDE STYLUS
Elliptical diamond stylus follows the groove modulation with greater precision compared to a conical stylus, offering improved frequency and phase responses whilst reducing distortion.
