Hi-Fi model

The base section that secures the power generation mechanism is made of extra super duralumin, the strongest aluminum alloy.
The first to use a boron cantilever, which is advantageous for vibration transmission, and a micro-ridge stylus tip that accurately traces ultra-high frequencies.
It provides a comfortable listening experience that won't tire you out, and reproduces the sound beautifully and faithfully to the grooves.

A comment from an audio critic who listened to "9TP"

9TP is clear, concise, and packed with information.
In the Baroque, in addition to the freshness of the string instruments, the solo flute shows delicate breathing.
The piano has a very good touch and texture, with a solid core yet a clear sound without any hardness or metallic sound.
The bass is solid and powerful, with no noticeable blurring, which also contributes to the clarity of the music.
The orchestra is impressive for the precision of the woodwind instruments and the wide range of brilliance of the string instruments, but above all, the sheer intensity of the explosive dynamism is outstanding.
There are no extraneous sounds, and the reproduction is crisp and full of dynamics.
