Product details

The AT-VM95E is the new entry-level model from Audio-Technica featuring an elliptical stylus, which not only replaces the legendary AT95E but also benefits from the developments of the AT95EX introduced in 2015. The AT-VM95E impresses with an improved, distinctive design featuring a stiffer, resonance-dampening body and, thanks to two threaded inserts in the body, allows for particularly easy installation with just two screws, without nuts (with headshell or integrated into the tonearm).

Es gibt Tonabnehmer, die jeder Audiophile griffbereit haben sollte. Auch wenn du sonst Teureres nutzt, gehört ein Audio-Technica AT-VM95E einfach dazu: als Backup, für Parties, aber auch als Realitätscheck für teurere Systeme, der auch mal überraschend ausgehen kann. Und natürlich kannst du es auch als ausgewogenen, ehrlichen Tonabnehmer für jeden Tag verwenden und dich an seinem exzellenten Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis erfreuen.

Die VM95-Serie definiert für MM-Systeme bis rund 200 Euro den Maßstab. Preisliche Überflieger sind insbesondere das VM95E und das VM95C. Da der Body stets derselbe ist, genügt für ein Upgrade der simple Nadeltausch. Die klangliche Spitze markieren das detailreich-transparente VM95ML und das einen Hauch weniger luftige, dafür minimal vollmundigere VM95SH.
