Ortofon VNL DANCE Cartridge

Ortofon has raised the bar with the new VNL TRIX and VNL DANCE cartridges - the latest additions to the iconic VNL series. Designed for durability, precision, and stage-ready performance, these models deliver the perfect blend of power and control for professional DJs.

Featuring an elliptical stylus, the VNL DANCE extracts greater detail and richer sound from the record groove, offering enhanced clarity and depth compared to the VNL TRIX. Built for durability, it incorporates a rigid aluminium cantilever with Ortofon’s exclusive rubber suspension to maintain stability under demanding conditions. Its superior tracking ensures reliable performance for professional use, while the neon-yellow fluorescent stylus glows vividly under UV lighting for easy cueing.

• 10 mV Output - Loud. Clean. Powerful.
• Rock-Solid Tracking - Perfect for scratching and back-cueing.
• Interchangeable Stylus - Maximum flexibility adapts to any set.
• Fluorescent Stylus - Find your mark, even in the dark under UV light.
• Next-Level Sound - Rich sound with clarity, and punch across every genre.

Pumping a massive 10 mV output, the VNL DANCE deliver raw volume and crystal clarity to any rig, from underground raves to big-room stages. Louder than ever before, it brings pure energy to the system.

Thanks to its 100 µm trackability, the VNL DANCE resists skips and holds the groove under aggressive techniques like scratching and back-cueing. Expect reliable performance in clubs and on tour, with clean, consistent playback!

VNL DANCE features a neon-yellow fluorescent stylus that glows under UV light, making cueing faster while adding standout style to your setup. Its elliptical diamond traces the groove more precisely than the spherical shape used on VNL TRIX, delivering sharper detail and fuller sound.

The VNL TRIX is fully VNL-compatible - also with the classic VNL cartridges - letting you swap styli to match your vibe and flow.
