Description

AT-ART9XI

Featuring a special line contact stylus on a 0.28 mm
diameter solid boron cantilever, the AT-ART9XI replaces the AT-ART9 as
Audio-Technica’s flagship magnetic core MC cartridge.

The “ART” in the model number stands for Audio-Technica
Reference Transducer, a designation that we give only to our flagship phono
cartridges. The specially designed magnetic circuit boasts an output voltage of
0.5 mV (1 kHz, 5 cm/sec), making the cartridge easy to use and capable of
reproducing even the most delicate expressions, while also ensuring dynamic
playback. The dual moving coils (fashioned from high-performance PCOCC wire)
are aligned in an inverted V shape to provide high separation and wide response
for clear sound localization and minimal distortion. Threaded cartridge
mounting holes make installation to a headshell or integrated tonearm incredibly
easy.
