It will deal with Inner Groove distortion better than the AT VM 95 EN and it isn't much more cost than it.S, I decided to get right to the point and create a new one (I gave up checking responses in the last one). It's worth noting that the MicroLine and Shibata should last considerably longer than the ellipticals. But this is where taste comes in, as I can imagine some people preferring the AT95E for its more gentle, easy-going character. This user-friendly approach translates into a quick and hassle-free stylus replacement procedure, leading you back to the audio experience you long for in just a matter of minutes.

The effective mass of the Technics SL1200 arm with third-party headshell comes in at around 15g, so firmly medium-mass, and this combination yields nice results. Tracking on decent recordings/pressings is good, delivering a relatively clean sound, but there are tracking issues with ‘hot’ pressings resulting in a rather scrappy midrange/lower-treble, with sibilance on vocals not handled well. Hiend units can sum the two channels with extra electronics to eliminates the vertical response and improve the signal to noise by 3dB.

Treble: The treble is actually relatively restrained – definitely reined in from the AT95E and lacking the sparkle of the latter.
