Description
Taking the successful AT-ART7 even further into premium turntable playback for vinyl enthusiasts, the Audio-Technica AT-ART9XA is a flagship nonmagnetic core dual-moving-coil-cartridge designed for Hi-Fi playback systems, providing extremely natural and distortion-free sound quality with the ability to express precise sound fields inherent to non-magnetic core types. Thanks to the redesigned coil armature, the AT-ART9XA achieves a higher output voltage of 0.2mV, overcoming the issue of low output found in traditional nonmagnetic cores. Extended frequency response and heightened separation are made possible by dual moving coils configured in an inverted V shape as well as the Shibata stylus and solid boron cantilever. The AT-ART9XA includes a complete hardware kit for easy installation to a headshell or integrated tonearm.Nonmagnetic Core Nonmagnetic-core moving-coil cartridge offers superior spatial representationInverted V-Shape Dual moving coils are aligned in an inverted V shape, providing high separation and wide response for clear sound localization and minimal distortionShibata Stylus Shibata stylus ensures accurate high-range and mid-low-range reproduction, and the 0.28mm diameter solid boron cantilever provides excellent response characteristicsIncreased Magnetic Energy Neodymium magnet and permendur yoke significantly increase magnetic energyRedesigned Coil Armature Redesigned coil armature provides an output voltage of 0.2mV (1 kHz, 5 cm/sec)PCOCC Coils PCOCC coils ensure high-fidelity transmissionStable Playback Machined aluminum base supports both the magnetic circuit and the vibration system, ensuring excellent playback stabilityLow Resonance Hybrid body of machined aluminum and high-rigidity plastic reduces undesirable parasitic resonanceEasy Installation Threaded cartridge mounting holes allow easy installation to a headshell or integrated tonearm
