    Audio-Technica's premium VM cartridge series is reborn with the AT-VM740xML, boasting a Microlinear nude stylus and a tapered aluminum pipe cantilever for reduced weight and increased durability. The AT-VM740xML uses PCUHD® (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability) as its coil conductor, delivering robust low-frequency response and a wide soundstage. A reduced coil turn count boosts responsiveness, ensuring vibrant, detailed music reproduction. For enhanced usability, threaded inserts simplify mounting on integrated tonearms. The stylus’s flip-up protector includes a V-cut to mark the tip position, making it easier to accurately lower the stylus onto records.
