The AT33xEN represents a significant evolution of Audio Technica's acclaimed AT33 lineage, engineered to extract greater musicality from your vinyl collection. This cartridge combines refined materials and precision construction to deliver authoritative, well-balanced sound across the frequency spectrum. A die-cast zinc base minimizes resonance while enhancing midrange and bass articulation, while the 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical nude stylus ensures precise groove tracking with superior high-frequency extension. The hard duralumin cantilever and newly designed piano wire suspension system work in concert to optimize tracking stability and dynamic response, yielding a warm, full-bodied presentation with exceptional detail retrieval throughout the audio range.
