Cartridge Audio-Technica AT-OC9XSH

Features

• Dual Moving Coil design, featuring independent coils for both left and right channels, provides outstanding channel separation
• The coils are aligned in a reverse V-shaped formation, which exerts less pressure on the stylus, thereby minimizing distortion
• The cartridge body is pre-threaded, enabling it to be mounted onto the headshell or integral tonearm with just two screws – no nuts required
• Features nude Shibata stylus and boron cantilever for rich full-range audio reproduction and high transient response
• A neodymium magnet and permendur yoke provide dramatically increased magnetic energy
• Aluminum body minimizes unwanted vibration for reduced resonance and superior audio reproduction
• Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting process (PCOCC) is used for the coils to achieve pure signal transfer
