Description
FOR SALE In USA; Perhaps last chance to pick up this great, sought after cartridge that is out of production! AUDIO TECHNICA AT33 AT33PTG/II, MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE WITH MICROLINE STYLUS AND BORON CANTILVER! Offering up for our friends here is the sought after AT33 AT33PTG/II Moving Coil Cartridge, this generation of cartridges (which some regard as Audio Technicas best before they went to aluminum cantilevers and so forth in this price point), is out of production. Has incredible cartridge specs on par with Hana and Sumiko, features boron cantilever, microline stylus and other great features. Retails for approx., $600... on Amazon, beware of buying cartridges without history. If its being sold directly from Amazon by Amazon, it means its probably a return, open box, etc... we have seen customers with several issues when buying cartridges from Amazon. Damaged, used, etc. you never know the history of the Cartridge. This cartridge came directly from our colleague and product manager at Audio Technica in USA. It was double inspected exclusively for us; correct stylus mounting, zenith error and final confirmation. The cartridge is brand new, never opened, never mounted. Screws, lead wires, non-magnetic screw driver, stylus brush, all included as new. See photos. This came direct from Audio Technica and was inspected and stylus photographed under microscope. Will include paperwork from AT with sale. This cartridge is new in box, with Zero hours. We have seen these cartridges go to 2,500 to 3,000 hours on them when cleaned correctly and played on cleaned records. Perhaps last chance to pick up this sought after cartridge that was direct from Audio Technica! We are selling several cartridges and offering at low prices. Many consider this generation of cartridges, made before the recent over-haul in their product lineup and specifications, to be the best AT cartridges made. This offers a detailed, revealing sound, with great low and high end response. Offering for $449.95 plus $12.95 in shipping. Will come well packed and insured. Due to the nature of cartridges and the delicacy of diamond tips, we cannot accept returns. Please review or 100% positive feedback! Audio-Technica Info: T33ptg/II - Moving Coil CartridgeAdvanced nude tapered boron and weight reduction. This model succeeds in thinning down and shortening the cantilever, compared to the AT33PTG. The coil impedance is also refined from 17? to 10?. We realized significant weight reduction of the vibration system and successfully improved the basic performance and sound quality of the cartridge. High performance and long-life Microlinear stylusMicrolinear (ML) is a specially polished line contact stylus. This has better high range performance than the conical or elliptical stylus due to its small curvature radius and realizes low distortion and expanding high range reproduction even when playing at the inner circumference of records. “Outstanding Magnetic properties”Neodymium magnet with dramatically enhanced magnetic energy and permendur yoke with high saturation flux density and outstanding magnetic properties.“Enables purer transmission”The PCOCC coil enables purer transmission because it is not subject to grain boundaries in the direction of transmission.“Limits unnecessary vibration”The VC mould that affixes the coil is made with hard synthetic resin containing potassium titanate to make it strong and rigid. Audio-Technica AT33PTG/2 Dual MC CartridgeThe AT33PTG/II dual moving coil cartridge features a Microlinear stylus that, with its small curvature radius, delivers low-distortion, high-range performance, even when playing the inner circumference of a record. The Microlinear stylus, which has an average life span of around 1,000 hours, is mounted on a nude tapered boron cantilever with a double damper for reduced weight and better audio quality. The cartridge’s two coils provide excellent channel separation and are affixed within a strong, lightweight mold made of hard resin to greatly reduce unwanted vibration. The cartridge uses a neodymium magnet and a permendur yoke for dramatically enhanced magnetic energy. The PCOCC (Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting) coils ensure pure audio transmission.Specifications Frequency response: 15-50,000 Hz Channel separation: 30 dB (1 kHz) Vertical tracking angle: 23° Vertical tracking force: 1.8-2.2 g (2.0 g standard) Recommended load impedance: More than 100 ohm (when head amplifier is connected) Coil impedance: 10 ohm (1 kHz) DC resistance: 10 ohm Coil inductance: 22 µH (1 kHz) Output: 0.3 mV (at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec) Channel balance: 0.5 dB (1 kHz) Stylus shape: Microlinear Stylus type: Nude square shank Stylus curvature radius: 2.2 x 0.12 mil Cantilever: Gold-plated nude tapered boron Static compliance: 40 x 10-6 cm/dyne Dynamic compliance: 10 x 10-6 cm/dyne (100 Hz) Mount: Half-inch Weight: 6.9 g (0.24 oz) Dimensions: 16.0 mm (0.63) H × 16.6 mm (0.65) W × 26.5 mm (1.04) D
