Replacement Stylus for VM Cartridges
The Audio-Technica VMN10CB is a conical replacement stylus designed for VM series phono cartridges. It restores tracking performance when the original tip wears out. Installation is a simple push-fit that requires no tools. The 2018 release remains in current production.
DJs and Casual Listeners
This stylus suits DJs and casual listeners who want a durable, affordable conical tip for everyday play. It is not for audiophiles who need the finer groove retrieval of an elliptical or microline profile. Buyers with non-VM cartridge bodies should look elsewhere.
Conical Tip Profile
The conical diamond tip traces the groove with a spherical radius that reduces record wear and tolerates higher tracking forces. This geometry makes it the decisive specification for high-cueing DJ use. Elliptical profiles track differently and are not interchangeable.

Questions about this item
How does the 2 gram tracking force perform on a typical turntable?
A 2 gram tracking force is a moderate setting that works with many standard tonearms and helps maintain consistent groove contact without excessive record wear.
What mounting standard does the VMN10CB stylus use?
The VMN10CB is designed as a direct replacement for Audio-Technica VM series cartridges and slides into the existing cartridge body without tools.
What physical clearance does the stylus need inside the headshell?
The stylus assembly follows the standard VM cartridge profile, so it fits the same headshell cut-out and overhang geometry as the original stylus it replaces.
