Fine Tracking
The Audio-Technica AT-OC9XML is a precise MC cartridge for listeners who want to get the maximum fine resolution from their records. The MicroLine stylus provides exact tracking and very clean playback, even in demanding passages and inner grooves.
Open and Controlled
With its wide frequency range of 20 to 47,000 Hz, an output voltage of 0.4 mV, and channel separation of 27 dB, the AT-OC9XML plays openly, clearly, and structured. The combination of a lightweight aluminum housing, naked boron cantilever, and PCOCC coil wire is designed for transparency, stability, and low distortion.
Precision in Setup
The recommended tracking force is 1.8 to 2.2 g, ideally 2.0 g, which allows the cartridge to be integrated very well into high-quality turntables. With its low moving mass and clean mechanical construction, it is suitable for setups where fine detail, channel balance, and control play a central role.
For Demanding Vinyl Listeners
The AT-OC9XML is particularly attractive for vinyl lovers who are looking for an audiophile, detailed, yet practically adjustable MC cartridge. It combines technical precision with musical openness, making it a strong choice for high-quality phono stages and ambitious turntable chains.
