Audio Technica AT-OC9XSL Dual Moving Coil Stereo Cartridge - Special Line Contact
The Audio Technica AT-OC9XSL Dual Moving Coil Stereo Cartridge represents the next generation of the legendary OC9 cartridge series. Since its debut over 30 years ago, Audio-Technica's pioneering moving coil OC9 cartridge series has garnered acclaim from discerning vinyl enthusiasts and professional critics for its musical transparency, expressive sound, and meticulous construction. Featuring a Special Line Contact stylus, reminiscent of the flagship ART1000, this diamond profile offers unparalleled accuracy in sonic reproduction, imbuing every instrument with a sense of space and realism rarely achieved by other configurations.
Special Line Contact Stylus
The Special Line Contact diamond profile delivers unmatched precision in sonic reproduction.
Easy Mounting
Threaded holes in the cartridge body enable effortless mounting onto a 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 stringent quality control measures for precise manufacturing.
Please Note: Moving coil cartridges require receivers or preamps with compatible inputs; their stylus assemblies are not field-replaceable.
