We’re excited to unveil the AT-VMx Series<\/strong>\u2014Audio-Technica\u2019s first major VM cartridge update since 2016, and a new benchmark for vinyl playback. Designed for everyone from first-time listeners to seasoned audiophiles, the VMx Series brings together refined engineering, thoughtful usability, and uncompromising sound quality.<\/p>\n

A Legacy, Refined<\/h3>\n

Building on decades of phono cartridge innovation, the AT-VMx Series introduces three updated lines: the AT-VM700x<\/strong>, 600x<\/strong>, and 500x<\/strong>. Each model is engineered to deliver enhanced performance across a wide range of turntables and listening preferences.<\/p>\n

This isn’t just a minor revision\u2014it\u2019s the most significant leap forward in the history of our VM cartridges.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s New in the VMx Series?<\/h3>\n

PCUHD\u00ae Coil Wire<\/h4>\n

All models feature Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability (PCUHD\u00ae)<\/strong> coil wire. This ultra-pure copper delivers stronger low-end response and a more expansive soundstage, bringing out more detail and dimension in your records.<\/p>\n

Optimized Coil Design<\/h4>\n

We\u2019ve reduced the number of coil turns to improve responsiveness and nuance<\/strong>, allowing for more faithful reproduction of musical dynamics.<\/p>\n

Boron Cantilever (AT-VM700x Series)<\/h4>\n

A standout feature of the 700x line is its boron cantilever<\/strong>\u2014a premium material known for its speed and stiffness. It transmits vibrations with exceptional accuracy, resulting in clearer, more lifelike playback, especially during complex musical passages.<\/p>\n

Upgraded Stylus Guard<\/h4>\n

A redesigned V-cut stylus guard<\/strong> makes needle placement more precise and intuitive, whether you\u2019re cueing up a favorite track or replacing a stylus.<\/p>\n

Improved Mounting<\/h4>\n

Threaded inserts<\/strong> allow for easier, faster installation on integrated tonearms\u2014no nuts required.<\/p>\n

Eco-Conscious Packaging<\/h4>\n

With sustainability in mind, the VMx Series ships in reduced-plastic packaging<\/strong> that maintains product protection while minimizing environmental impact.<\/p>\n

A Cartridge for Every Listener<\/h3>\n

Whether you\u2019re looking to upgrade your first setup or fine-tune a high-end system, the AT-VMx lineup offers a versatile range of options at every tier. And with interchangeable styli across the series, it\u2019s easier than ever to explore different listening experiences without starting from scratch.<\/p>\n

The AT-VMx Series is more than just a next-gen cartridge\u2014it\u2019s the result of years of dedicated research, audiophile feedback, and forward-thinking design. Rediscover your vinyl collection with clarity, warmth, and a level of musicality that feels brand new.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
