Audio-Technica – AT-ART9XA Dual MC Phono Cartridge

Description

Nonmagnetic Core and Redesigned Coil Armature Anchor Audio-Technica AT-ART9XA Dual Moving-Coil Phono Cartridge: Free of Magnetic Distortion, Plays with Superb Accuracy

Providing superb spatial representation, accuracy across the frequency spectrum, and terrific energy, theAudio-Technica AT-ART9XA moving-coil phono cartridge features a nonmagnetic coreas well as a redesigned coil armature for 0.2mV output a significant figure for a design of its type. Free of magnetic distortion, it leverages aShibata stylus, 0.28mm-diameter solid boron cantilever, neodymium magnet, permendur yoke, and hybrid body toplay back vinyl LPs with involving emotionalism, detail, and dynamics.

As one of the company’s only flagship ART (Audio-Technica Reference Transducer) models, AT-ART9XA counts dual moving coils built from PCOCC wire aligned in an inverted “V” shape forexceptionally wide responsiveness and remarkable clarity. Logistically, threaded cartridge-mounting holes help makeinstallation easy and hassle-free, while its machined aluminum base supports both the magnetic circuit and vibration system for requisite stability.
