Description

Audio Technica AT-ART9XI Dual Moving Coil Stereo Cartridge (Non-Magnetic Core)

The AT-ART9XI takes the place of Audio-Technica's flagship magnetic core MC cartridge, the AT-ART9, featuring a special line contact stylus mounted on a 0.28 mm diameter solid boron cantilever.

ART Designation

The "ART" designation signifies Audio-Technica Reference Transducer, reserved for flagship phono cartridges. The specially designed magnetic circuit of the AT-ART9XI produces an output voltage of 0.5 mV (1 kHz, 5 cm/sec), ensuring dynamic playback and faithful reproduction of delicate nuances.

Dual Moving Coils

Crafted from high-performance PCOCC wire, the cartridge's dual moving coils are aligned in an inverted V shape to provide high separation and wide response, resulting in clear sound localization and minimal distortion.

Ease of Installation

Threaded cartridge mounting holes simplify installation onto a headshell or integrated tonearm, facilitating a hassle-free setup process.

Please Note: Moving coil cartridges require receivers or preamps with compatible inputs; their stylus assemblies are not field-replaceable.

Key Features

  • Audio-Technica’s flagship magnetic core moving coil cartridge
  • Dual moving coils are aligned in an inverted V shape, providing high separation and wide response for clear sound localization and minimal distortion
  • Special line contact stylus ensures faithful reproduction of the music signal, and the 0.28 mm diameter solid boron cantilever provides excellent response characteristics
  • Neodymium magnet and permendur yoke significantly increase magnetic energy
  • Specially designed magnetic circuit provides an output voltage of 0.5 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
