Key Features

Diamond-crafted audio: our flagship AT-MCD1 is one of the finest phono cartridges ever produced

Integrated stylus and diamond cantilever, formed from a single lab-grown diamond, eliminates the distortion caused by conventional bonding for pure signal transmission, fast transient response, and enhanced high-frequency expression

Lightweight integrated 0.22 mm square diamond cantilever is crafted using the CVD (chemical vapor deposition) method, ensuring outstanding precision and consistency in acoustic performance

Newly developed Shibata stylus (R2.7 × r0.08 mil tip radius) traces the intricate modulations of the record groove with extreme accuracy for a precise and lifelike listening experience

Dual moving coils provide high separation and wide response for clear sound localization with minimal distortion

Dedicated magnetic circuit, developed specifically for Audio-Technica’s high-class MC cartridges, achieves higher output voltage (without altering coil impedance) while further enriching the presence and realism of the sound image

PCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting) coils minimize signal disturbance, providing purer and smoother transmission

The precision-machined titanium housing is remarkably lightweight and rigid, and offers exceptional acoustic performance

Hybrid body construction – titanium housing, aluminum base, elastomer undercover – reduces undesirable resonance

Threaded cartridge mounting holes allow for easy installation to a headshell or integrated tonearm

High-quality sound terminal pins have 3-micron gold-plating to reduce contact resistance and enhance sound quality

Each cartridge is engraved with a unique serial number and comes in a solid cherry wood storage case

Crafted and hand-finished by artisans in Japan

Environmentally conscious paper-based packaging
