Independent PCOCC left- and right-channel coils provide 27 dB separation, while a neodymium magnet and permendur yoke support responsive 0.4 mV output. A die-cast zinc, aluminum and high-rigidity polymer body disperses resonance, and M2.6 threaded holes make two-screw mounting easier, especially on an integrated tonearm.\u003cbr\u003e\nIts warm, full-bodied balance gives instruments and voices lifelike mid-to-low-frequency expression, making this turntable cartridge especially well suited to rock and jazz records from the 1950s, '60s and '70s.\u003cbr\u003e\nKey Features\u003cbr\u003e\nWarm, Full-Bodied Audio\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Audio-Technica AT33XMLD is tuned to reveal fine detail without losing the richness associated with classic analog playback. Its expressive mid-to-low-frequency character brings satisfying weight to instruments and the human voice, with a presentation designed to complement rock and jazz recordings, particularly albums from the 1950s, '60s and '70s.\u003cbr\u003e\nNude Microlinear Stylus and Duralumin Cantilever\u003cbr\u003e\nThe nude Microlinear stylus follows intricate groove information with high accuracy, helping uncover subtle musical textures. Its high-hardness duralumin tapered pipe cantilever improves control at higher frequencies, while the firm connection between the cantilever, stylus and suspension supports stable, nuanced reproduction.\u003cbr\u003e\n27 dB Channel Separation and PCOCC Coils\u003cbr\u003e\nSeparate moving coils for the left and right channels keep stereo information distinct, delivering 27 dB channel separation at 1 kHz. Positioned at the cantilever's fulcrum, the PCOCC coils create a pure, smooth path for each channel's signal.\u003cbr\u003e\nEfficient Magnetic System\u003cbr\u003e\nA neodymium magnet works with a permendur yoke to create a strong magnetic field and maximize power-generation efficiency. The result is responsive, high-resolution playback from the cartridge's 0.4 mV output.\u003cbr\u003e\nResonance-Controlled Composite Body\u003cbr\u003e\nDie-cast zinc, aluminum and high-rigidity polymer are arranged throughout the cartridge body to reduce and distribute resonance instead of allowing one frequency range to dominate. Dense zinc at the base further suppresses unwanted vibration, reinforcing balanced sound and greater expressiveness through the mid-to-low range.\u003cbr\u003e\nSuspension Designed for Tonearm Versatility\u003cbr\u003e\nA newly developed mechanism uses piano wire with a redesigned rubber damper to improve tracking accuracy. Its slightly lower dynamic compliance gives the sound greater substance and allows the cartridge to work with a variety of tonearms.\u003cbr\u003e\nEasy Two-Screw Threaded Mounting\u003cbr\u003e\nM2.6 threaded holes let the AT33XMLD attach with only two screws during a turntable setup. This arrangement is especially convenient when the headshell is integrated into the tonearm.\u003cbr\u003e\nGold-Plated Terminals and Japanese Craftsmanship\u003cbr\u003e\nThick gold plating on the terminal pins reduces contact resistance at the cartridge connection. Each AT33XMLD is crafted and hand-finished by artisans in Japan.\u003cbr\u003e\nFeatures\u003cbr\u003e\nAudio-Technica AT33XMLD AT33x Series Design\u003cbr\u003e\nRefreshes the moving coil cartridge platform with upgraded materials and suspension engineering.\u003cbr\u003e\nWarm, Full-Bodied Audio\u003cbr\u003e\nBrings richness and detail to instruments and voices on rock and jazz records, especially recordings from the 1950s, '60s and '70s.\u003cbr\u003e\nNude Microlinear Stylus\u003cbr\u003e\nReads fine groove modulations for precise, nuanced record playback.\u003cbr\u003e\nDuralumin Tapered Pipe Cantilever\u003cbr\u003e\nProvides high rigidity and refined high-frequency control.\u003cbr\u003e\n20 to 42,000 Hz Frequency Response\u003cbr\u003e\nReproduces detail across a wide audio spectrum.\u003cbr\u003e\nIndependent Dual Moving Coils\u003cbr\u003e\nMaintains distinct left and right signals with 27 dB channel separation at 1 kHz.\u003cbr\u003e\nPCOCC Coil Conductors\u003cbr\u003e\nPromote clean, smooth signal transmission from both stereo channels.\u003cbr\u003e\nNeodymium Magnet and Permendur Yoke\u003cbr\u003e\nCreate an efficient magnetic circuit for responsive high-resolution output.\u003cbr\u003e\nThree-Material Composite Body\u003cbr\u003e\nCombines zinc, aluminum and high-rigidity polymer to distribute resonance evenly.\u003cbr\u003e\nDie-Cast Zinc Base\u003cbr\u003e\nControls unwanted vibration and strengthens mid-to-low-frequency expression.\u003cbr\u003e\nPiano-Wire Suspension and Rubber Damper\u003cbr\u003e\nSupport accurate tracking and compatibility with a variety of tonearms.\u003cbr\u003e\nM2.6 Threaded Mounting Holes\u003cbr\u003e\nSecure the cartridge with two screws for easier headshell installation.\u003cbr\u003e\nThick Gold-Plated Terminal Pins\u003cbr\u003e\nReduce contact resistance at the electrical connection.\u003cbr\u003e\nCrafted and Hand-Finished in Japan\u003cbr\u003e\nReflects artisan assembly and finishing for every cartridge.\u003cbr\u003e\nMoving Coil Exchange Program\u003cbr\u003e\nProvides a fee-based service option for the AT33XMLD stylus assembly.1\u003cbr\u003e\nFootnotes\u003cbr\u003e\n1 The AT33XMLD stylus assembly is not field-replaceable.
