Precision Tools for Professional DJs

VNL TRIX

Ortofon just leveled up with the all-new VNL TRIX and VNL DANCE, the latest additions to the iconic VNL series. Built tough, tuned for performance, and ready for the stage. The VNL TRIX and VNL DANCE cartridges are engineered for DJs who demand both power and precision. 

With a spherical stylus mounted on a rigid aluminum cantilever and Ortofon’s exclusive rubber suspension, VNL TRIX is built to take a beating. The fluorescent white stylus makes cueing even faster, and the premium tracking keeps it locked for pro use including heavy scratching and back-cueing.

Raw volume and crystal clarity

/LOUD. CLEAN. POWEFULL.

Pumping a massive 10 mV output, the VNL TRIX 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.

Grips the groove and never let go.

/Rock-Solid Tracking

Thanks to its 100 µm trackability, the VNL TRIX 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!

Fluorescent Stylus

/Find your mark,
even in the dark!

The fluorescent white stylus glows bright under UV light, so the tip is instantly visible on busy stages and in blackout booths. Enjoy faster cueing and cleaner beatmatching during heavy scratching and quick back-cues.

Featuring a spherical stylus mounted on a rigid aluminium cantilever and Ortofon's exclusive rubber suspension, VNL TRIX is built to take a beating!

Maximum flexibility adapts to any set

Interchangeable Stylus

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

Top Rating: Ortofon VNL TRIX & DANCE (5/5 Stars)

“... the needle almost sticks to the groove, whether scratches, cuts or backspins. The tightly tuned suspension provides a very direct feel and reduces unwanted bounce – almost like an “old-school M44-7,” but with modern precision.

..clean timecode interpretation for a strong and interference-free timecode signal in DVS operation

Electro, house, trance, and techno DJs, in particular, who mix cleanly and sometimes use longer transitions, benefit from the additional richness of detail.

Both systems close the gap left by Shure and Stanton and technically bring the DJ needle into 2025.“
