{"product_id":"audio-technica-at33xen","title":"Audio Technica AT33xEN Cartridge","description":"\u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\" class=\"product-hero__intro-text\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe latest update to the venerable AT33 Series – the first extensive overhaul in years – brings new warmth and fullness to your favorite music. Incorporating technological and material improvements, including our first use of die-cast zinc at the base of the cartridge to ward off unwanted resonance and improve expressiveness in the mid to low frequencies, the AT33x Series cartridges let you hear the finest details across the audio spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AT33xEN is an excellent all-around cartridge choice, delivering warm, full-bodied audio reproduction. It features a 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical nude stylus attached to a hard duralumin tapered pipe cantilever to provide excellent tracking of the record groove with enhanced high-frequency control. Our newly developed suspension mechanism uses piano wire for even better tracking accuracy, lowering the dynamic compliance slightly for more substantial audio, particularly in the mid-low range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-hero__expanded-text\" style=\"max-height: 568px;\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cartridge’s composite body, made of die-cast zinc, aluminum, and high-rigidity polymer, reduces and disperses resonance across the entire body, resulting in balanced, natural sound reproduction that doesn’t favor particular frequencies. The AT33x dual moving coil cartridge design features independent left- and right-channel PCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting) coils for outstanding channel separation and pure, smooth signal transmission. A neodymium magnet and permendur yoke create a strong magnetic field that maximizes power generation efficiency, resulting in responsive, high-resolution analog playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all AT33x Series cartridges, the body of the AT33xEN includes threaded holes for easy mounting (just two screws required). These threaded holes are especially useful when mounting the cartridge to an integrated tonearm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease Note: AT33xEN’s stylus assembly is not field-replaceable, but Audio-Technica offers a fee-based \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audio-technica.com\/en-ca\/cartridges\/styli-accessories\/a-t-moving-coil-exchange-program\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMoving Coil Exchange Program\u003c\/a\u003e to properly service your moving coil cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details_accordion-trigger\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"details_accordion-title\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"details_accordion-trigger-icon\"\u003e \u003csvg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewbox=\"0 0 26.369 2.848\" class=\"details_icon\" role=\"img\"\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/svg\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details_accordion-content\" style=\"height: auto;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details_accordion-content-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAT33x Series dual moving coil stereo cartridge with 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical nude stylus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull, warm sound is suitable for a wide variety of recordings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual moving coil design, featuring independent left and right coils, provides outstanding channel separation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting) coils provide pure, smooth signal transmission\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeodymium magnet and permendur yoke maximize energy efficiency for high-resolution, responsive playback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposite cartridge body (die-cast zinc, aluminum, and high-rigidity polymer) reduces resonance throughout the body for balanced, natural sound reproduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly rigid and dense die-cast zinc material is used at the base of the cartridge to suppress unwanted vibrations and improve the expressiveness of the mid-to-low frequency range\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded mounting holes make it easier to mount the cartridge to a headshell, especially one integrated into a tonearm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical nude stylus tracks the record groove with accuracy for outstanding audio reproduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-hardness duralumin tapered pipe cantilever enhances high-frequency control \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly developed suspension mechanism and rubber damper design (with lower dynamic compliance than other A-T cartridges) enable the cartridge to be used with a variety of tonearms \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThick gold plating on the terminal pins reduces contact resistance and enhances sound quality\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrafted and hand-finished by artisans in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCartridge \u0026amp;
