The body parts are precision machined from aluminum alloy, which securely fastens the power generating structure and prevents resonance that can cause muddy sound.
The cantilever has a double structure made of hard aluminum alloy, and the stylus tip has a line contact shape.
Powered by a powerful magnetic circuit with a special PC material core and neodymium magnet.
The pure reproduction, free from dirt and impurities, brings out the charm of the music itself contained in the record.
A comment from an audio critic who listened to the "9TT" when it was first released
The tone is smooth and delicate, with a thick bass range.
The impression is that each sound comes out clearly, and it's as if fine energy is flowing smoothly.
The Baroque violin feels good to the touch, with just the right amount of shine and tension, and a slender texture that gives it a bouncy feel.
The ensemble is well balanced and the sound is very fresh.
The piano's explosiveness is a little subdued, but the delicate nuances of the soft notes are quite unusual.
The touch is spotless and contains plenty of minute information.
The orchestra exudes a high level of freshness, with movement captured at a distance and no dustiness in texture.
It has a natural feel, which is manifested in the rich nuances of the soft parts and the expansiveness of the tutti.
The chorus is incredibly detailed, and even the air in the space feels crystal clear.
