-THE ULTIMATE-
AUDIO-TECHNICA "DIRECT POWER-MOVING COIL" TURNTABLE CARTRIDGE
AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-ART1000
1/2" STANDARD MOUNT
TURNTABLE CARTRIDGE
 

The AT-ART1000 (“ART” for Audio-Technica Reference Transducer) is Audio-Technica’s new flagship phono cartridge, handmade in Japan. Born of the pursuit of audio excellence that has driven A-T for more than 50 years, the AT-ART1000 introduces an innovative, audiophile design heretofore unseen in mass-produced cartridges. The cartridge’s direct power system places the dual moving coil directly on top of the stylus tip, ensuring that the audio quality does not suffer the negative effects normally introduced by the cantilever's length and material type. Having the coils move in such close proximity to the stylus tip allows the cartridge to vividly render even the most subtle sonic details and provide unsurpassed transient response.

Each of the cartridge’s two coils is constructed of 20 ěm diameter PCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting) wire, wound eight turns to a diameter of 0.9 mm to create a non-magnetic core coil. The 3-ohm coils are placed in the tiny 0.6 mm gap of a powerful magnetic circuit, enabling each coil to generate an output voltage of 0.2 mV.

AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-ART1000 FEATURES:

- Innovative direct power system delivers unsurpassed transient response, resulting in reproduction of even the most subtle sonic details
- Special line contact stylus and solid boron cantilever with a 0.26 mm diameter ensure an extremely accurate reading of the record groove
- Non-magnetic core coils provide exquisite, full-dimensional audio reproduction
- Powerful neodymium magnet and exclusive magnetic circuit with a miniscule 0.6 mm magnetic gap provide remarkably efficient power generation
- Magnetic circuit’s titanium base works in combination with the cartridge’s hard plastic cover and aluminum housing to disperse unwanted resonance
- PCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting) coil enables pure signal transfer

The AT-ART1000 features the same high-performance line contact stylus and solid boron cantilever found in the AT-OC9/III, enabling the cartridge to faithfully trace the record groove and reliably transfer the signal to the coils. The base that supports the specialized magnetic circuit and vibration system is made from titanium. This sturdy base is instrumental in providing consistent playback, and works in combination with the cartridge’s hard plastic cover and aluminum housing to disperse resonance that negatively affects the sound quality.


AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-ART1000 SPECIFICATIONS:
Frequency Response: 15-30,000 Hz
Channel Separation: 30 dB (1 kHz)
Tracking Force Range: Specified for each individual cartridge (refer to “Trackin force information” included with the cartridge) g
Recommended Load Impedance: Min. 30 ohms (when head amplifier is connected)

AUDIO-TECHNICA DUAL "MOVING COIL / MICRO-LINE" TURNTABLE CARTRIDGE
AT-OC9ML/III AUDIO-TECHNICA ATOC9ML/III ATOC9MLIII
1/2" STANDARD MOUNT
TURNTABLE CARTRIDGE
STEREO OR QUADRAPHONIC
 
Audio-Technica’s AT-OC9/III MicroCoil™ Cartridge features a special line contact stylus embedded into a low-profile solid boron cantilever, ensuring the music signals read by the tip of the stylus are transmitted reliably to the coils. The cartridge’s “VC mold” design ensures stability and rigidity while the dual moving coil offers excellent stereo separation and improved frequency response for long-lasting performance. The use of PCOCC wire (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting), a special copper with virtually no transverse crystal barriers to impede signal transmission, perfects the performance of the advanced dual coil design.
Specs are as follows:

- Dual "Moving Micro-Coil" design
- Stylus (needle) Shape: "Line-Contact"
- Magnet material: Neodymium
- Cantilever: 0.26mm Solid Boron (not a tube)
- Frequency Response: 15-50kHz
- Output: 0.4mV @ 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec
- Channel Separation: 30dB @ 1 kHz
- Channel Balance: 0.5dB @ 1 kHz
- Coils and Pins: PCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting)
Recommended Vertical Tracking Force: 1.88-2.2 grams (2g recommended)
Recommended loading impedance: 100 ohms (with head amplifier connected)

Again if you are looking for a fabulous sounding cartridge from Audio Technica, for listening to or for recording your vinyl collection and your record collection is in excellent shape and you want to insure it stays that way this is probably the cartridge for you. This is also a great cartridge for decoding  Quadraphonic (sometimes misspelled as 'quadriphonic') LP's. Again, this is a "moving coil" cartridge, so you will need a moving coil "head amp" or MC setting on your stereo pre-amp or receiver.

Finally, a replacement for the long-running AT-71ELC 'Green'. The Audio-Technica AT-95E. Will fit turntables requiring a standard mount cartridge. Another great performing cartridge offering better performance, but keeps the wallet happy. Features a Bonded Elliptical 0.4 x 0.7 mil Diamond stylus (needle) for better than average groove tracking. Utilizes Audio-Technicas' own Vector-Aligned dual magnet design for sonic generation. Since the AT-95E has an elliptically cut diamond stylus it will "blow away" it's slightly cheaper counterparts, the AT70L / AT-70L and CN5625AL (AT-70L is now discontinued anyway) with their "Close-n-Play" / Toy style "Conical" cut stylus'! It is imperative to at least have a good elliptically cut diamond for accurate sound and lower record wear.

Cartridge Design: Moving Magnet, Standard 1/2" mount design
Stylus Type: Elliptically cut Bi-Radial @ 0.4 x 0.7 mil Diamond Stylus
Cantilever: Alloy Tube
Frequency Response: 20-20kHz
Output voltage: 3.5 mV ( 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec)
Channel Separation: >20dB at 1 kHz
Channel Balance: <2dB at 1 KHz
Recommended Vertical Tracking Force: 1.5-2.5 grams (2.0 recommended)
Recommended loading impedance: 47K ohms (standard, requires only standard phono pre-amp built-into most gear).

The half-inch standard mount AT95E phonograph cartridge offers outstanding clarity and detail. Reviewers have rated this affordable, high-performance cartridge as a best buy value.

The elliptical diamond stylus is designed to track record grooves with high accuracy for outstanding audio reproduction. Includes mounting hardware and stylus guard.
If you are looking for a decent sounding cartridge for listening to your albums, but not so much recording and your budget will not bear the cost of the AT-440MLa or the AT-120E/T then this would make a nice sounding cartridge for your 1/2" mount turntable.

AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-92ECD
UNIVERSAL / 1/2" OR P-MOUNT
TURNTABLE CARTRIDGE
 
The Audio-Technica AT-92E. Will fit turntables requiring either a P-mount or standard mount cartridge. Another great performing cartridge offering above average performance with-out breaking the bank. Features a Bonded Elliptical 0.3 x 0.7 mil Diamond stylus for exceptional groove tracking. Utilizes Audio-Technicas' own Vector-Aligned dual magnet design for sonic generation. The AT-92EPOT has a finer elliptical cut to the diamond stylus than it's slightly cheaper counterparts, and since it has an elliptical cut, will "blow away" the AT300P / AT-300P with it's "Close-n-Play" / Toy style "Conical" cut! At the very least, a good 'elliptically cut diamond' is imperative to accurate sound and lower record wear.
Specs are as follows:

Frequency Response: 15-27kHz
Output: 3.5 mV @ 1kHz
Recommended Vertical Tracking Force: 1.0-1.5 grams
Recommended loading impedance: 47K ohms (standard, requires only standard phono pre-amp built-into most gear).


If you are looking for an above average sounding cartridge for listening and / or recording your vinyl then this would make a nice sounding cartridge for your 1/2" or P-mount system.

-THE ULTIMATE-
AUDIO-TECHNICA
RECORD CARE KIT / CLEANER
 
No matter how good your turntable or cartridge is and no matter what condition your albums are in, they will not sound good if they are not clean! For LP's and EP's, the Audio-Technica, AT-6012 system is a great way to go. Clean records are also easier on your stylus and can potentially reduce the risk of damage to speakers. Easy to use and does a great job. 
Kit includes the following:

- 'Sonic Broom' type Record cleaning brush
- Brush Storage base
- 2 oz. Audio-Technica Record Cleaning Fluid

Again if you are listening to vinyl and do not have a way to consistently and easily clean you records, you are not getting the most out of your records and system.
