Audio-TechnicaAT-OC9XSH Dual Moving Coil Cartridge

The AT-OC9XSH dual moving coil cartridge with Shibata stylus is engineered for listeners who demand exceptional clarity, precision, and musical detail from their vinyl collection. Its advanced dual moving coil design delivers outstanding channel separation and an expansive soundstage, while pure copper continuous casting coils ensure highly accurate signal transmission. The reverse V-shaped coil alignment reduces stylus pressure, lowering distortion and preserving delicate musical nuances. A nude Shibata stylus mounted on a rigid boron cantilever traces record grooves with remarkable accuracy, capturing rich full-range audio and fast transient response. Housed in a resonant-damping aluminum body, the cartridge minimizes unwanted vibration for cleaner playback. A powerful neodymium magnet and permendur yoke further enhance magnetic efficiency, while the pre-threaded body allows quick, secure mounting without the need for nuts, making setup both precise and convenient.
