Yes, this is an moving-magnet cartridge, your not going to find a moving coil cartridge at this price point. It is still a great cartridge for the money.Enjoy the music.

Yes, I believe this is a (standard) 'moving-magnet' type of phono cartridge, as opposed to the pricier and somewhat more delicate "Moving-Coil" type (that often requires a special pre-amp/step-up transformer to boost its typical low signal; many high-end amps/receivers had special phono stages that accepted moving-coil input for this reason. I've had this cartridge for a couple of months now and very satisfied and impressed by the quality of sound it puts out. Hard to beat for the relative low cost of this cartridge... best deal out there, in my opinion. For a more authoritative discussion of moving magnet and moving coil cartridges, look up 'magnetic cartridges' on wikipedia.

Yes, the bits themselves are not magnetic, but the base of the driver has a pretty substantial magnet in it, magnetizing the bit.

Kelley, don't know. You will have to compare picture to your cartridge and make an educated guess. Sorry.

No, it's not magnetic. Thus, it's probably Series 300 SS. Series 400 SS, knife blades for example, is magnetic.

No, it is a black cartridge. It is for certain Brother monochrome laser printers.

Bit holder is not magnetic, it has a built in spring which causes it to lock onto the bits.

Direct drive turntables have 60 hertz buzz that goes into moving coil cartridges. A moving magnet cartridge would better for direct drive turntables like the denon dp 11-f....

I don't understand the question. But the cartridge I bought is very good at a smile price. I recommend.

If the MMC model of Bang and Olufsen cartridge is a moving magnet, yes. If it is a moving coil, no.

Hi Dan you should be able to click on the cartridge when you change it. go to tools and you should see a button to accept the cartrige

No, it is not magnetic. However, there are spring-like "grabbers" down in the chuck that hold the bits in place very securely...they do not fall out.

It doesn't. That is what I was looking for when I bought this and I typed in magnetic but I sure can't tell that it is, if it is. But yesterday this screwdriver saved me. I was putting an old door back up and stripped the screw with my drill so I got out this new Philips head and it caught and held on all the screws so, I'd say get it anyway!
