Audio-Technica AT-VMN95SP (MM) replacement stylus
The Audio-Technica VMN95 replacement styli fit all cartridges in the VM95 series and the AT-XP DJ cartridges, as the electromagnetic engine body is fully compatible. A diamond stylus wears: after about 500 hours for a conical, 300 hours for an elliptical, 1000 hours for a MicroLine and 800 hours for a Shibata stylus. Regular cleaning is recommended.
Full description
Every diamond stylus of a cartridge shows wear after a period of playing.
This is around 500 hours for a conical stylus, 300 hours for an elliptical stylus, 1000 hours for a MicroLine stylus and 800 hours for a Shibata stylus.
It is advisable to clean the stylus regularly with special cleaning products, which you can also buy at Audiofrenzy.
Our VM95 series dual moving magnet cartridges can be used almost "forever" by replacing the interchangeable stylus. There is no longer any need to buy a completely new cartridge when your diamond is worn. You can easily replace the stylus, but also experience upgrading your cartridge with a different stylus from the VM95 series.
The six models of VM95 series cartridges all have the same electromagnetic engine body, so all six interchangeable styli are perfectly compatible.

AT-VM95E Series compatible with the AT-XP Series DJ cartridges
The electromagnetic engine body of the XP Series is fully compatible with all replacement styli of the VM95 Series and gives more output voltage than a VM95 Series cartridge. Provides improved compatibility with the phono inputs of professional DJ mixers.
The VM95 Series electromagnetic engine body is also compatible with the three replacement styli of the AT-XP Series DJ cartridges. Nevertheless, the electromagnetic engine body of the XP Series delivers more output voltage than the VM95 Series cartridges, for better compatibility with the phono inputs of professional DJ mixers.
Note that the tracking force is three grams when the XP Series styli are used, as opposed to the tracking force of two grams when the VM95 Series styli are used.
The design of the XP series styli is optimised for intensive DJing and manual cueing and back-cueing. The compliant design and compatibility of the VM95 series are specifically for optimal audio reproduction.
No nuts needed
The VM95 series cartridges have two M2.6 threaded inserts, so the cartridge can be installed on the tonearm or a removable headshell without using nuts. Each cartridge comes with a pair of 8 mm M2.6 screws, a pair of 11 mm M2.6 screws and two plastic washers.
