Audio-Technica AT-VM510XCB Overview

Add warmth and realism to your vinyl playback with the AT-VM510xCB Dual Moving Magnet Phono Cartridge from Audio-Technica. Part of the AT-VMx series, this particular cartridge features a 0.6 mil conical bonded stylus, which is made to track the center of the groove for more reliable playback and overall durability. As with other stereo AT-VMx cartridges, it's designed to closely mirror the cutter heads that make vinyl masters by using the same 90° V-shape configuration to maximize tracking accuracy, channel separation, and clarity. Additional features include optimized PCUHD copper in both coils, easier installation, and more.

PCUHD Copper
Pure Copper Ultrahigh Drawability, or PCUHD, is used for the copper wire that's in the two paratoroidal coils of the cartridge's generator. Two coils are provided per channel with one stacked behind the other for better efficiency. Compared to previous generations, the coil turns are reduced in the AT-VMx to help the cartridge more quickly response to changes in your music. This combination is made to result in richer and more nuanced sonic reproduction that reacts more quickly for clean sound and an improved transient response.
Easy Installation
Sporting a V-cut in the AT-VMx flip-up protector, you get quick reference of the stylus position and it also serves as a guide to help with properly lowering the stylus onto the record. The cartridge is also easier to install than many other models, requiring just two screws and no nuts to attach firmly to a headshell.
Additional Features
  • Two magnets positioned to match the left and right channels in the groove for optimal separation and extended frequency response
  • Center shield plate for left/right separation that reduces crosstalk and maintains a clear stereo image
  • Durable low-resonance polymer housing
  • Aluminum cantilever
  • Works on any turntable headshell that uses 1/2" cartridges
  • Compatible with all stereo AT-VMx replacement styli
