I'm reading a lot of positive reviews and comments about the AT-VM95ML cartridge and am thinking of trying one on my Technics SL-1200GR.
I'm attracted by the theory that microline styli reduce distortion through improved tracking. I'm plagued by distortion, particularly IGD, far less these days than I was in my early vinyl days when it drove me nuts - anyone else remember how awful "Songbird" used to sound, the last track on Side 1 of "Rumours"? However, there's still room for improvement
The only reservation I have is I hear microline styli are sensitive to VTA and wonder how the adjustability of the Technics arm may work with this?
I'd be interested to hear from anyone with experience of using the AT-VM95ML on a Technics deck.
