Smooth, Reliable Playback – Especially for Mono Records
The AT-VMN10xCB features a conical stylus bonded to an aluminum cantilever, offering rugged performance and reliable playback. Its mono-optimized design reduces unwanted noise and improves central sound image clarity when used with dedicated mono cartridges like the VM610MONO.
Thanks to Audio Technica’s Dual Magnet technology, the stylus mimics the original cutting head used in record production. This ensures accurate channel separation and rich detail, while the para-toroidal magnetic system maintains signal linearity and clarity across a wide frequency range.
Easy Stylus Replacement
Replacing your worn stylus is quick and tool-free. Just remove the old stylus with a gentle pull, align the new stylus with the housing, and press it into place. To get the best sound quality and protect your vinyl:
-
Set the tracking force between 1.8 – 2.2 grams (ideal: 2.0 g)
-
Adjust anti-skating and alignment as needed
-
Avoid touching the stylus tip directly – handle from the sides
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a conical and an elliptical stylus?
A conical stylus like the AT-VMN10xCB offers durability and tolerance for tracking errors but less detail in high frequencies. An elliptical stylus provides more precision and picks up finer details, but it wears faster.
When should I replace my stylus?
Typically after 800–1000 hours of playback. Signs of wear include distortion, skipping, loss of treble detail, or visible flattening of the tip.
Is it suitable for 78 RPM records?
No – while it may fit certain cartridges like the VM670SP, it's not recommended for 78s. These require a stylus designed for wider grooves to prevent damage.
