The Audio-Technica AT-VM95E is a dual moving magnet (MM) phono cartridge fitted with an elliptical bonded stylus — a meaningful step up from the conical VM95C, offering improved groove tracing, enhanced detail retrieval, and better channel separation. With a generous 4.0 mV output it works with virtually any MM phono stage, and the VM95 series’ universal stylus-swap design means you can upgrade to a nude elliptical, microlinear, or Shibata stylus at any time without replacing the cartridge body.

Speakers
- Speaker terminals are marked red and black, ensure your amplifier to the speakers are wired on the same colours
- Ensure no loose speaker wire from the red touches a loose wire from the black as this will lead to a short circuit and damage either the speaker, the amplifier or both.
- Not all speakers are designed to play at max volume, kindly consider the pairing of your amplifier and speakers
- Speaker cabinets cannot be replaced please handle with care.
AV & Stereo Amplifiers
- If your amplifier has HDMI ports, ensure all devices are off before plugging in the HDMI cable
- Turn off the amplifier before swoping out or adding speaker cable
- Amplifiers generate heat, place them in a well ventilated space. if possible avoid having anything on top of the unit.
- adding a surge protector can assist with power dips which are likely to damage your devices. Isotek and Furman are industry standard.
- Dusty environments can sometimes lead to accumulation of dust in the electronic components that might affect heat regulation
