Description

Audio Technica AT-ART9XA Dual Moving Coil Stereo Cartridge (Non-Magnetic Core)

The AT-ART9XA is an upgraded version of the AT-ART7, boasting a non-magnetic core MC cartridge design with exceptional performance features.

Advanced Design

Featuring a Shibata stylus mounted on a 0.28 mm diameter solid boron cantilever, the AT-ART9XA incorporates cutting-edge technology for unparalleled sound reproduction.

Reference Transducer

The "ART" designation in the model name signifies Audio-Technica Reference Transducer, reserved for flagship phono cartridges. Unlike magnetic core cartridges, the non-magnetic core design of the AT-ART9XA eliminates magnetic distortion, resulting in natural timbre and precise sound field reproduction.

Enhanced Output Voltage

While traditional non-magnetic core cartridges often struggle with output voltage, the AT-ART9XA overcomes this limitation with a newly designed coil armature, delivering an improved output voltage of 0.2 mV (1 kHz, 5 cm/sec).

Dual Moving Coils

The cartridge features dual moving coils crafted from high-performance PCOCC wire, arranged in an inverted V shape to ensure high separation and wide response for exceptional audio fidelity.

Easy Installation

Threaded cartridge mounting holes simplify installation on a headshell or integrated tonearm, making setup hassle-free for users.

Key Features

  • Non-magnetic core moving coil cartridge offers superior spatial representation
  • Dual moving coils are aligned in an inverted V shape, providing high separation and wide response for clear sound localization and minimal distortion
  • Shibata stylus ensures accurate high and mid-low range reproduction, and the 0.28 mm diameter solid boron cantilever provides excellent response characteristics
  • Neodymium magnet and permendur yoke significantly increase magnetic energy
  • Redesigned coil armature provides an output voltage of 0.2 mV (1 kHz, 5 cm/sec)
  • PCOCC coils ensure high-fidelity transmission
  • Machined aluminum base supports both the magnetic circuit and the vibration system, ensuring excellent playback stability
  • Hybrid body of machined aluminum and high-rigidity plastic reduces undesirable parasitic resonance
  • Threaded cartridge mounting holes allow easy installation to a headshell or integrated tonearm
