I haven't bought this turntable but just wanted to add a comment regarding the supplied cartridge.
The overview says that this turntable is fitted with a AT-VMN95E cart - this is the wrong information.
This turntable is fitted with a AT-VM95E cart, the AT-VMN95E is the replacement stylus for AT-VM95E.
I think that is an excellent choice for a turntable like this, and you will find it a great performer, but you can go higher up the fidelity chain with an uber easy upgrade.
The AT-VM95E cartridge can be upgraded to any of the other AT-VM95 stylus profiles via a simple swap of the stylus, all the way up to AT-VMN95ML Micro Line and AT-VMN95SH Shibata stylus tip profiles.
Whilst these styli are not cheap, the simple act of doing this will result in a significant upgrade.... superior tracking, playback performance and fidelity - you will be blown away at the difference. Audio Technica have truly created an amazing series with this cartridge!
I would say even going up to the AT-VM95EN (nude elliptical) would be a significant upgrade.
I have the AT-VM95SH on a different turntable and I think it sounds fantastic - I have much more expensive MC carts and I think it's up there with the best. Can't recommend it enough! I just love the detail it reveals.
If you want to find out more, search for reviews for AT-VM95ML and AT-VM95SH online.
