Description

Audio Technica AT-OC9XSH Dual Moving Coil Stereo Cartridge - Shibata

The Audio Technica AT-OC9XSH dual MC Phono Cartridge is the latest iteration of the esteemed OC9 cartridge series, renowned for its musical transparency, sound expression, and meticulous craftsmanship. Featuring a Shibata profile diamond stylus originally designed for Quadraphonic replay, it delivers a depth of sound and remarkable high-frequency response that must be experienced firsthand to be fully appreciated.

Shibata Stylus The Shibata stylus produces a beautiful mid-high range Shibata-signature sound with robust mid-range volume.

Easy Mounting Threaded holes in the cartridge body enable effortless mounting onto the headshell or integral tonearm using just two screws (M2.6) – no nuts or bolts required.

Aluminium Body The aluminium body minimises unwanted vibration, resulting in reduced resonance and superior audio reproduction.

Made in Japan Manufactured in the Audio-Technica Fukui factory in Japan under strict quality control measures to ensure precise manufacturing standards are upheld.

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