Cartridge features dual magnets to match the left and right channels in a stereo record groove for outstanding channel separation and extended frequency response. MicroLine stylus traces record grooves with incredible accuracy, resulting in nuanced audio reproduction that elliptical and conical styli simply can't match. Stylus's multilevel shape also wears better than other styli, while reducing the wear on your records. Paratoroidal coils improve generating efficiency. Center shield plate between the left and right channels reduces crosstalk.Durable low-resonance polymer cartridge housing.

Audio-Technica AT-OC9XSL Dual Moving Coil Cartridge with Special Line Contact Stylus

Dual Moving Coil design, featuring independent coils for both left and right channels, provides outstanding channel separation. The coils are aligned in a reverse V-shaped formation, which exerts less pressure on the stylus, thereby minimizing distortion. The cartridge body is pre-threaded, enabling it to be mounted onto the headshell or integral tonearm with just two screws no nuts required. Features nude Special Line Contact stylus and boron cantilever with accurate tracking ability and high transient response. A neodymium magnet and permendur yoke provide dramatically increased magnetic energy. Aluminum body minimizes unwanted vibration for reduced resonance and superior audio reproduction. Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting process PCOCC is used for the coils to achieve pure signal transfer.

Audio-Technica AT33SA Shibata Nude Dual Moving Coil Turntable Cartridge Beige

Features a Shibata line-contact stylus, known for its superior high-range performance and strong mid and bass sound. Stylus is mounted on a tapered boron cantilever with a double damper for reduced weight and better audio quality, particularly in the higher frequencies. Dual moving coils provide excellent channel separation and are affixed within a strong but lightweight VC mold to greatly reduce unwanted vibration. Uses a neodymium magnet and a permendur yoke for dramatically enhanced magnetic energy. PCOCC Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting coils ensure pure audio transmission. Precision-cast hard aluminum alloy body enhances rigidity and the signal-to-noise ratio.
