Ortofon VNL Trix DJ Cartridge

The Ortofon VNL TRIX is designed for DJs who need loud output, reliable performance and fast cueing across any live or studio setup.

The VNL TRIX cartridge is equipped with a 10 mV output, which pushes a strong signal to your mixer, keeping your sound powerful without needing extra gain.

Its spherical stylus is built for tough use, mounted on a rigid aluminium cantilever with Ortofon's rubber suspension to stay in the groove during scratching, back-cueing or high-energy sets. The fluorescent white stylus tip is easy to spot under UV light, helping you line up tracks faster in darker venues.

It's also interchangeable, so you can switch styli to match your preferred sound or technique. The VNL TRIX combines clarity, volume and durability to give working DJs a cartridge that handles serious use and delivers clean results.

Loud output with clean signal

The VNL TRIX delivers a strong 10 mV output, giving your audio system more volume straight from the source. This helps reduce reliance on mixer gain, keeping your signal cleaner and more defined. It’s ideal for high-volume environments like clubs, parties or live stages where clarity and loudness are equally important.

Designed for hands-on performance

The spherical stylus is a smart choice for DJ use, especially with back-cueing, scratching and fast transitions. It’s mounted on a rigid aluminium cantilever and supported by Ortofon’s custom rubber suspension, helping it stay in place during heavy use. The result is stable tracking that holds up under pressure and keeps your set flowing smoothly.

Visual cueing made easier

The stylus tip is finished in fluorescent white, designed to glow under UV light. This makes it easier to spot your cue point quickly when working in low light, helping you line up drops or switch tracks with better timing and accuracy. It’s a practical upgrade that supports better performance in real DJ environments.

Flexible stylus options for any setup

The VNL TRIX supports interchangeable styli, letting you swap tips based on your needs. This gives you freedom to customise your sound or replace a worn stylus without changing the entire cartridge. Whether you’re playing aggressive sets or precision mixes, the flexibility helps you keep your gear aligned with your style.
