Overview

A headshell and cartridge combo for precise, detailed playback.

The Audio-Technica AT-VM520xEB/H combo kit with AT-VMN40xML replacement stylus is built for vinyl enthusiasts who want clean tracking and long-term performance. With a 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical bonded stylus pre-mounted on a lightweight headshell, this setup offers precise groove contact and dynamic stereo playback. The vertical dual magnet design mirrors a record's cutting head for accurate channel balance, while the durable polymer housing reduces unwanted resonance across your collection.

AT-VMN40xML Stylus for Extended Groove Contact

The included AT-VMN40xML microlinear stylus replacement improves upon elliptical shapes by offering deeper groove contact and reduced distortion. Its profile extends stylus life and helps protect your records while delivering better high-frequency response and greater detail. Whether you're refreshing your setup or upgrading fidelity, this stylus delivers long-wear accuracy with refined clarity for critical listening.

Lightweight Headshell With Vibration Control

The die-cast aluminum headshell keeps weight low and resonance minimal. Its universal 1/2" mount fits most turntables, with elongated slots for proper alignment and a slip-resistant finger lift for accurate stylus placement. Threaded inserts simplify cartridge installation, and oxygen-free copper lead wires maintain clean signal transfer from source to output.

Features

  • Elliptical bonded stylus design ensures accurate tracking and clear sound
  • Pre-mounted headshell allows quick setup for most turntables
  • 1.8–2.2 g tracking force range provides optimal playback performance
  • Compatible with VMN40xML replacement stylus for extended product lifespan

Get precise tracking and smooth performance with the Audio-Technica AT-VM520xEB/H headshell and cartridge combo. It's a smart upgrade for vinyl lovers who want reliable sound and easy setup.
