Other Notes: 

"The Audio-Technica AT-ART9XA is a premium, non-magnetic core moving coil cartridge designed for audiophiles seeking unmatched detail and musicality. Its nude Shibata stylus rides a 0.28 mm solid boron cantilever, paired with PCOCC wire, delivering a remarkably transparent sound with wide soundstage and ultra-low surface noise. By eliminating the magnetic core, it achieves nimble groove tracking and precise mid-to-high frequency clarity, making it a standout choice for high-end analog setups.

Engineered with an inverted V-shaped coil design, the AT-ART9XA offers excellent channel separation of 30 dB, revealing subtle nuances in recordings with impressive fidelity. Though its 0.2 mV output is low, it pairs perfectly with high-gain MC phono stages, rewarding careful setup with exceptional detail, smoothness, and transparency. Ideal for enthusiasts who demand musical precision and minimal distortion, this cartridge elevates vinyl playback to a truly refined listening experience."
