Audio-Technica ATN3401 ATN-3401 Replacement Stylus for Audio-Technica AT3401 AT-3401 Cartridge

LP GEAR ATN95MR PENULTIMATE STYLUS
- High-Grade stylus for Audio-Technica AT95 and compatible cartridges

The Audio-Technica ATN95E was the stylus replacement for the highly rated AT95E cartridge that has been discontinued - victims of the consumer electronics product life cycle where the product life cycle is around 2-3 years which means a product has to be revised or updated every two years or so. On one side, this is beneficial to the industry and consumers since it forces constant research and innovation. On the other hand, it is wasteful and counterproductive. This fosters short-term quality and product thinking - products that have a short-term life on the shelf. They break or sound old after a few years!

● New High-Grade stylus ATN95MR stylus for ultimate expression of the AT95E cartridge
● Extracts and transmits micro-contours of the grooves with superb detail and clarity
● Special precision polished nude Micro Ridge diamond tip for supreme fidelity
● MicroRidge tip dimensions: 2.5µm × 75µm
● Long lasting performance and durability
● Low-mass alloy cantilevered fulcrum for groove tracing accuracy and fidelity
● LP GEAR® stylus - Above and beyond originals, copies and generics

AT LP GEAR®, our philosophy runs counter to corporate convention. We believe that products created for perfection should last a lifetime of enjoyment or much longer like the Guarneri violin. Older than the USA— 273 years old to be exact, the Vieuxtemps Guarneri Del Gesu-1741 named for its most famous owner, the leading Belgian virtuoso and composer who esteemed it so much he wanted to be buried with it, recently became the most expensive violin in the world, selling for an estimated $16 million. Its new owner anonymously donated the historic instrument to violinist Anne Akiko Meyers, on loan for the rest of her life.

Thus we curated the N95MR stylus as testament of our esteem for the Audio-Technica 95E cartridge so devoted owners will continue to hear this gem at its best for many decades to come. It is a lofty goal — we believe its new soul transcends its former self. It has incredible chemistry that is heard, felt and enjoyed!

See this customer review: "I am so impressed with the sound of this stylus...it is quite literally a jaw dropping different experience in clarity and air over my seven year old LP Gear highly acclaimed ATN95SA stylus it replaced. It was just so easy to snap on a new stylus vs. aligning a whole new LOMC cartridge as I’m now very satisfied with the supreme music fidelity of the nude micro ridge diamond ATN95MR for my Thorens TD-309 turntable. I think you’d be as happy as I am having this if you already own the original AT95 cartridge!" ¹

Do not order this stylus if it looks different (aside from color) from what you have. It will not fit if the original cartridge is missing or has been changed. Please contact us if you need assistance or prefer a new cartridge. If possible, provide us with the markings on the existing cartridge and stylus (look for the brand and model number). Photos will be helpful.
