Overview

A phono cartridge with microlinear stylus for precise tracking.

The Audio-Technica AT-VM740xML VMx microlinear phono cartridge is built to reveal the heart of your records with breathtaking accuracy. Featuring a dual moving magnet design that mirrors the vinyl cutter head, this cartridge offers superb channel separation and stereo clarity.

Installation is fast and frustration-free thanks to built-in threaded inserts—just two screws, no extra hardware needed. The die-cast aluminum housing reduces resonance, while a flip-up stylus guard with V-cut reference simplifies record alignment. From setup to playback, the AT-VM740xML is designed for ease of use and long-term performance, helping your vinyl sound its very best, spin after spin.
