Audio Technica VM510CB Moving Magnet Cartridge - Product Description

The Audio Technica VM510CB moving magnet cartridge is a testament to the brand's dedication to high-performance audio. Paying homage to the classic VM cartridge series, Audio Technica combines innovative design with outstanding sound reproduction to redefine the vinyl listening experience.

VM Dual Magnet Design

The VM510CB incorporates Audio Technica’s V Magnet design with two magnets aligned to precisely match the left and right channels of the stereo groove walls. This critical construction detail ensures maximum channel separation, extended frequency response, and excellent trackability on virtually any record.

Conical Diamond Stylus

Equipped with a 0.6 mil conical bonded diamond stylus, the VM510CB excels at tracing the record grooves with high accuracy, offering a detailed, high-fidelity sound performance. The conical stylus, a preferred choice of many audiophiles, is known for its durability and low vinyl wear, making it an ideal choice for extensive browsing of your vinyl collection without inflicting damage.

Highly Rigid Paratoroidal Generator Coil System

The VM510CB boasts a highly rigid paratoroidal generator system that maintains the integrity of the minute audio signal generated by the stylus. An optimal power distribution within the coils allows the cartridge to extract every subtle detail from the record tracks, reproducing a soundscape that encapsulates the full spirit of the original recording.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced ABS Resin Housing

The VM510CB cartridge features a structurally sound ABS resin housing, reinforced with carbon fiber. This high-strength, low-resonance material combination further aids in dampening unwanted vibrations and micro resonances, leading to a cleaner and more nuanced audio output.

High-Channel Separation

Engineered to achieve high channel separation, the VM510CB cartridge delivers an immersive listening experience by reproducing a wide soundstage with clear positioning. Such spatial precision is likely to engage listeners and recreate the essence of a live performance.

Extended Frequency Response

The VM510CB's extended frequency response ensures that you don’t miss out on the broad spectrum of audible frequencies that a record can offer, from the deepest bass notes to soaring high notes. The frequency range encompasses the entirety of sound that human ears can perceive and facilitates a high-resolution audio reproduction.

Versatile Mounting Options

The VM510CB offers versatile mounting options, fitting in conveniently with both a standard half-inch and P-mount turntable heads, making it widely adaptable and easily interchangeable across a range of turntable setups. This compatibility widens the scope, making it accessible to a wide range of users.
