The Korena take

Audio-Technica’s AT-XP5 is a DJ-focused cartridge with a PPS/glass-fiber body, a 2–4 g tracking-force range, and 5.5 mV output. Its bonded elliptical stylus measures 0.3 x 0.7 mil and is designed to track the record groove accurately for audio reproduction. The stylus-tip visibility is a practical detail for DJs who need to keep the tip in view while working at the turntable.
