VM95 series Shibata replacement stylus

VM95 Series dual moving magnet cartridges can be used almost forever by replacing the interchangeable stylus. It is no longer necessary to purchase a complete cartridge when your diamond is worn out, you can simply buy the matching replacement stylus but also enjoy the experience of upgrading your cartridge with a different stylus.

The six models of VM95 Series cartridges all use the same electromagnetic engine body, therefore each of the six replacement styli is perfectly compatible.

Shibata Stylus

Provides a beautiful mid-high-range Shibata signature sound and strong mid-range volume.

VM95 Series - Styli compatibility

Over time, the diamond stylus on every cartridge wears down with use, typically lasting around 500 hours for the conical stylus, 300 hours for the elliptical, 1000 hours for micro linear, and 800 hours for the Shibata stylus. However, with our VM95 Series dual moving magnet cartridges, you can enjoy virtually limitless playback by simply replacing the interchangeable stylus. No need to purchase an entirely new cartridge when your diamond wears out; just get the appropriate replacement stylus. What's more, you can enhance your cartridge experience by switching to a different stylus. All six models in the VM95 Series share the same electromagnetic engine body, ensuring perfect compatibility with each of the six replacement styli.
