The durable, low-resonance Housing includes threaded inserts that enable the cartridge to be mounted to the head shell with just two screws - no nuts required. And since all VM95 Series share the same body, the stylus can be replaced with any of the six interchangeable at-vmn95 Replacement styli.

Understanding this sub is "budget" audiophile, thought I'd run some less expensive MM cartridges through my deck.  The least expensive is a Shure M44 that came on an old free table.  Most expensive is a still affordable $120 Audio-Technica AT-VM95EN.

Test track was "Famous Last Words" from the "Living With Ghosts" 10-year anniversary release of MCR's "Welcome to the Black Parade".

First up was the Shure M44 with a Tonar Elliptical stylus.  Best description - thumpy.  Lots of bottom end, but dull in the midrange, and missing top end detail.  I can see why this is (was) such a popular cartridge for DJs.  Cost - $20CDN for the stylus.

Second up was an Ortofon Omega.  Suddenly much more mid detail, with a "normal" amount of bass.  Top end was good but not overly sharp.  Excellent value for the money, but did get congested in the mids when the music for more complicated.  Cost - $35CDN.

Third up was a Grado Prestige Green.  Completely different presentation than the other two cartridges, with an overall cleaner sound.  Has the Grado "house sound" which has warm mids, solid bass, and some rolled off top end.  A very pleasant and listenable cartridge, but can hum on a DD turntable.  Cost - $99CDN (sale).

Last up was the Audio-Technica AT-VM95EN, the only cartridge with a nude elliptical diamond.  A clear step up from the Shure and Ortofon cartridges, with the top end clarity AT is known for.  More "exciting" a presentation than the Grado, but also found some surface noise the others didn't.  Cost - $119 (sale).

Each of the cartridges brought something different to the table.  Both vintage and inexpensive cartridges like the Shure and Ortofon provide plenty of value, and are great for a starter or budget system.  It wasn't tested here, but the Audio Technica AT-3600L is also a great budget cartridge, especially for classic rock.

However, spending the extra scratch to move up to the Grado or AT is certainly worth the spend.  Although not part of this shootout, an Ortofon OM-10 would also be worth the jump in price if you're looking for something a bit more dynamic than the Grado but not as exciting as the AT.

Hope you enjoyed the read!

Cheap Cartridge SHOOTOUT!

Not Terrible, But Not Great Either.....

Good shootout of some inexpensive cartridges

In all fairness, I have 45 year-old components, although the receiver, turntable, and speakers still work fine. I replaced my old cart/stylus since I no longer thought I was getting the level of reproduction I once had. Had high hopes for much better sound after installing the AT, but really don't notice any change. It's entirely possible that I'm simply not reaping the benefits of what the AT has to offer due to some other, as of yet undiagnosed issue somewhere in the entire audio chain; however, based on sound comparison alone, I just don't notice any improvement over my old cart/stylus which is probably 20+ years old

May well be I really didn't need a replacement. Still, for the cost and great reviews, I expected at least a noticeable difference

I don't hear any difference in sound quality

My parents got me a fluance rt81 for christmas, first manual table but thoughts on grado black3? Thinking of getting that or the ortofon 2m red for my first upgrade for the cartridge

 But for an affordable great cardtridge, for not the best records, used records, this is more than good.

 Complete black background, clean sounding. No sibilances, and still detailed. Bass is there, tidy bass, not a DJ cartridge though, no messy big bass. Sound also not the most opened ever, not the most holographic ever

Great cartridge for the price. Detailed, neutral. Complete black background, clean sounding. No sibilances, and still detailed

Great cardtridge for the price, nothing magic though

Im going to be upgrading the cartridge on my Teac Tn300 turntable from the stock one soon. I've had my eye on a Ortofon 2m red for a while as I've always heard good things about them and they retail for just around £100 which would be what I would want to spend. It also seems to be a common upgrade for my table so I guess they suit each other well.
What other cartridges should I consider for around the same price before I make up my mind?

Best cartridge for around £100?

I purchased the new VM95EN to upgrade from my older AT95EX. I was surprised to find that the sound quality was actually a downgrade. It was muffled and compressed sounding. Tried on another turntable for a different tonearm setup

 It was muffled and compressed sounding. Tried on another turntable for a different tonearm setup. The sound was again disappointing. I don’t know what Audio-Technica did but call me unimpressed

 The sound was again disappointing. I don’t know what Audio-Technica did but call me unimpressed. I already requested for a product return.

A downgrade from the less expensive AT95EX

That's a thing you can do with moving coil cartridges in the $500-1000+ range, where pretty much all your choices are excellent trackers, and you might favor something with a tiny bit more dynamics/bass slam for some genres or something with a tiny bit more transparency and detail for other genres. But under $100 you can't choose on those terms—you just need to be concerned with getting the best tracking you can for that limited budget. Can you afford $120? If so, get the Audio-Technica VM95EN.

i just got my first nice turntable set up, i have a denon dp 52f and i have a majority of old punk vinyls in my collection i’d love to listen to, im looking for a cartridge that will just do well on the sound for this type of music, as of right now i don’t need anything extremely fancy so my budget is &gt;100, just something cheap will do for now but i still would like to pick a good one for my type of music
