Review on 🎢 Enhanced Audio-Technica AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet Turntable Cartridge in Green by Jaleel Akuffo

No Regrets: Electronic Music, DJ & Karaoke

I bought this because there was still only one stylus option for my existing cartridge and I wanted more options if I could decide for an upgrade it allows. It installed in minutes and immediately removed the sibilance I was hearing and restored the top end of the sound and clarity of the bass tones. Very similar to the videos you can see on YouTube. Sony PSLX300h '97. First cartridge upgrade. I played a remaster of Craft REM's Monster with this one, "Hot Thoughts" Spoon, Bon Ivers 22 A Million, Bill Evans on Shelly's Manne Hole, Yves Tumor's Heaven to a Tortured Mind, and about a dozen other albums. The stylus and carriage handle everything I throw at them with crisp, dynamic precision, and it all sounds great. Used, worn records still sound worn and worn, but they bring back important dynamics. Purple Rain has many background layers, I've never heard them really stand out. Well the price is worth it and I can't wait to upgrade the stylus after 500 hours of use.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • So far so good
