The AT33xEN is a versatile cartridge that delivers warm, full-bodied audio with excellent tracking and high-frequency control, thanks to its 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical nude stylus on a duralumin tapered cantilever. Its advanced suspension system with piano wire enhances accuracy and mid-low range response, while the composite body of zinc, aluminum, and high-rigidity polymer reduces resonance for balanced, natural sound. The dual moving coil design with PCOCC coils ensures outstanding channel separation and smooth signal transmission, supported by a neodymium magnet and permendur yoke for high efficiency and resolution.
Features
- Dual Moving Coil Cartridge with Elliptical Nude Stylus
- PCOCC Coils Ensure Smooth Signal Transmission
- Composite Body Reduces Resonance for Balanced Sound
Material Difference
The AT33xEN’s rigid duralumin pipe cantilever, which tapers toward the elliptical stylus tip for improved response, is linked with a firm suspension mechanism, slightly lowering the dynamic compliance. Two independent PCOCC coils are positioned at the cantilever’s fulcrum to ensure pure signal transmission for each channel.
Sound Body
Each AT33x Series cartridge body is constructed of three distinct materials – die-cast zinc, aluminum, and high-rigidity polymer – optimally arranged to reduce and disperse resonance across the cartridge body so that no frequency predominates during playback. Threaded holes are incorporated into the body for easy mounting.
Full, Warm Sound
The redesigned AT33x Series cartridges deliver that classic analog sound, rich in detail across the audio spectrum with lifelike expressiveness in the mid to low frequencies.
