Description
★Pre-mounted model combining the DJ cartridge "VNL" that is resistant to needle skipping with the headshell SH-4 Black★

"I want a cartridge that doesn't skip needles." This has been the wish of DJs who work with vinyl for many years.
To make this dream a reality, Ortofon enlisted the help of turntablists who have won world championships in the world's top competitions, including DMC and IDA. They carefully and sincerely picked out what they wanted from a new-generation DJ cartridge and proceeded with development.

Furthermore, consideration was given to smooth operation when used in the now-standard DVS environment, and compatibility with the increasingly portable music player environment in recent years. Furthermore, versatility was also emphasized, as it could be attached to a shell and was lightweight, so it could be used with any arm. Thus, the VNL was born, a dream cartridge that combines extremely clear, high-quality sound with resistance to needle skipping during hard play, through the ideal combination of turntablists and Ortofon.

This product is a premounted model that uses the same cartridge body as the VNL Single Pack, sold separately, but is mounted on an SH-4 Black headshell and comes with the lead wires pre-wired.

*This product comes equipped with a "Stylus VNLII." "Stylus VNLI" and "Stylus VNLIII" are sold separately.
