REVIEWS & TECHNOLOGY
AT-OC9XEN CARTRIDGE -
AUDIO TECHNICA
The AT-OC9XEN Dual Moving
Coil cartridge with nude elliptical stylus is designed to provide outstanding
channel separation. The Pure Copper by Ohno
Continuous Casting (PCOCC) coils ensure pure audio transmission and are aligned
in a reverse V-shaped formation to exert less pressure on the stylus, thereby
minimising distortion. Audio quality is further enhanced by a rigid aluminium
body that reduces resonance, a neodymium magnet and pure iron yoke that
increase the magnetic energy, and the low-mass nude elliptical stylus on an
aluminium cantilever that accurately tracks the record groove. The cartridge
body has been pre-threaded, enabling it to be mounted to a headshell
or integral tonearm with just two screws – no nuts required.
