Audio quality is further enhanced by a rigid aluminum body that reduces resonance, a neodymium magnet and premium permendur yoke that dramatically increase the magnetic energy, and the nude special line contact stylus on a boron cantilever that tracks the record groove with ultimate accuracy, delivering rich, full-range audio 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.

Please Note: AT-OC9XSL’s stylus assembly is not field-replaceable, but Audio-Technica offers a fee-based Moving Coil Exchange Program to properly service your moving coil cartridge.

• 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

• A neodymium magnet and permendur yoke provide dramatically increased magnetic energy
  
  
• 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
