    Description

    Audio Technica AT-OC9 (1987-1996 generation) Moving Coil Cartridge.  I bought in the early 90's when the AT-OC9 was a new model, and each cartridge was measured and the frequency response plot provided.  Probably played the equivalent of 50 records over the years, and the stylus is still good, but the cantilever angle is offset with respect to the body line (see pictures), so optimal azimuth/tracking angles will need to be tweaked during setup. Noticed this awhile back when upgrading the head shell, so don't know if it was originally this way or somehow got tweaked.  At the time I removed it from the head shell a year ago, the L/R channel balance and suspension were still good, and it tracked fine @ 1.5g on a medium-mass tonearm.  Includes all original packaging and documentation as shown.
    A low starting bid price set to reflect the cantilever offset issue.
