Audio-Technica - Audio Technica ATOC9XML Dual Moving Coil Cartridge - Red
About this product
The AT-OC9XML Dual Moving Coil cartridge with Microlinear 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 minimizing distortion. Audio quality is further enhanced by a rigid aluminum body that reduces resonance, a neodymium magnet and premium permendur yoke that increase the magnetic energy, and the nude Microlinear stylus on a boron cantilever that tracks the record groove with incredible accuracy, low distortion and high-transient response. 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. 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. Nude Microlinear stylus and boron cantilever provide lower distortion and high transient response. A neodymium magnet and a premium permendur yoke with high saturation flux density and outstanding magnetic properties further enhance the concentrated magnetic field of the coil gap. 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.

Keep vinyl LPs free from annoying static, microscopic dust, and harmful debris with AudioQuest’s Silver Anti-Static Record Brush. Simple, attractive, and remarkably effective, AudioQuest’s Silver Anti-Static Record Brush features 1,086,000 conductive carbon fibers and an uncoated metal finger grip to create a reliable electrical path between fibers and handle. Unlike most brushes that have a protective coating over their handles, AudioQuest’s Silver Anti-Static Record Brush employs an uncoated metal finger grip that has been carefully positioned for ease of use and efficacy, ensuring a proper electrical connection to the user’s hand. That electrical path from fibers to hand is key to the Silver Anti-Static Record Brush’s success: Upon gripping the handle and gently applying the brush’s bristles to the surface of an LP, the user essentially becomes the ground for static electricity. Like its sibling, AudioQuest’s Gold Anti-Static Record Brush, which boasts even more (1,248,000) conductive carbon fibers, the Silver Anti-Static Record Brush is a direct descendant of AudioQuest’s tried-and-TRUE Carbon Fiber Record Brush. Dating back to 1982, AudioQuest’s Carbon Fiber Record Brush is a TRUE hi-fi classic, trusted for decades by audiophiles, vinyl enthusiasts, collectors, record-shop owners, DJs, and anyone else who cares about LPs. In creating the improved design, AudioQuest established new tooling for every part of the Anti-Static Record Brush. The revamped Anti-Static Record Brush has ideal conductivity from its carbon fibers through its internal parts to the ergonomically positioned conductive contacts. AudioQuest also reinvestigated the performance potential of carbon fiber bristles, thoughtfully selecting a far greater quantity of smaller bristles to sweep away microscopic dust and debris — not just the less relevant visible dust — more effectively. Building and maintaining a record collection doesn’t have to be a daunting or tedious task. The AudioQuest Silver Anti-Static Record Brush makes it easy: Simply place a record on your turntable’s platter, start the turntable, and wait until the record is spinning at its proper speed (33, 45, or 78RPMs). Holding the Anti-Static Record Brush by its silver finger grips, place its fibers across the grooves — firmly enough that the bristles make constant contact with the record’s surface and gently enough that the bristles do not bend. Allow the record to turn for two or three rotations so that the Anti-Static Record Brush can collect the visible dust and any invisible microscopic dust. Gently and smoothly slide the brush away from the platter’s center spindle, toward your body, and off the record’s surface. Rotate the Anti-Static Record Brush within its handle to remove any dirt and debris from its carbon fiber bristles. Repeat the process as desired. Cleaning your records before and after each listening session helps keep them free from dust and debris while eliminating static that can contribute to annoying snaps, crackles, and pops. This safe and simple record-cleaning process also benefits your phono cartridge’s stylus, enhancing its performance and extending its lifespan by ensuring that it travels a smoother, cleaner path through the vinyl’s grooves. Make the AudioQuest Silver Anti-Static Record Brush an important part of your vinyl-care routine and join tens of thousands who have trusted AudioQuest with keeping their valuable collections clean, quiet, and static-free.

This update of the venerable ATN3600L conical bonded stylus, which has sold by the millions and been trusted by countless music lovers for more than 50 years, features a new modern design while retaining the ease-of-use, reliability, and sound quality that have made it the replacement stylus for so many turntables. The 0.6 mil conical stylus ensures proper contact with the record groove even when the cartridge is not quite level. Audio-Technica has been perfecting the art of transducer technology since our first handcrafted phono cartridge in 1962.
