Ortofon - MC X40 Nude Shibata MC Phono Cartridge with Boron Cantilever - Black

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.

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.

Replace worn parts to get crystal clear sound with this Audio-Technica elliptical replacement stylus. The elliptical diamond design follows record grooves precisely to reduce distortion and improve response from the VM95 series. This Audio-Technica elliptical replacement stylus can be used to replace worn styluses and keep dual moving motor cartridges running flawlessly.
