Unique Direct Power System
The innovative direct power system developed for the AT-ART1000, which places coils on top of the stylus to capture the subtlest sonic details, has been updated to include rectangular non-magnetic core coils for enhanced efficiency and extended low-frequency output.
Premium Stylus and Cantilever
The cartridge’s special line contact stylus offers premium high-frequency response with minimum abrasion to greatly reduce distortion and record wear. Affixed to a solid boron cantilever (0.26 mm diameter), the stylus reads the record groove with extreme accuracy.
What the Pros are Saying
"The ART1000X is a tough act to follow, especially for $5500. I know that's a great deal of money, but even if you have to put it on a card, once you hear it you won't regret the purchase, I do not think. I returned the original review sample. I'm buying this one!" - Michael Fremer Tracking Angle
Threaded Mounting Holes
The body of the AT-ART1000X features threaded mounting holes to make installation a breeze. Use the included screws to quickly mount the cartridge to a headshell or integrated tonearm.
