AT-OC9XSH The next Generation of the legendary OC9 cartridge series

Since its introduction more than 30 years ago, Audio-Technica’s pioneering moving coil OC9 cartridge series has been prized by demanding vinyl listeners and professional critics alike for its musical transparency, expression of sound and precise construction. Shibata profile diamond originally designed for Quadraphonic replay offers a depth of sound, combined with a high-frequency response that has to be heard to be believed.
