AT-OC9XMLvs AT-OC9XSH


Any experience comparing these carts?  Is there really a difference in stylus shape between the two?  

I have owned a few OC9ML and was not disappointed.  

I'm looking for a new cart coming off of a Lyra Skala and don't expect quite that refinement but would like equal or improved dynamics.  Also looking for solid imaging and a good soundstage.

Arm is a Jelco TK-850L on a severely modified VPI TNT.  All Herron Audio electronics.

Would really suggest you consider the ART-9. Quite the nice cart. The only cart I like better is the ART-1000.

I have most of the AT carts plus quite a few others. The ART 9 is a nice pathway into the ART series. Pretty musical cart, nice soundstage. 

The ART 1000 is in another league. the dynamics, soundstage depth, instrument placement in the sound stage better every other LOMC I have tried. Its one heck of a hot rod LOMC cart.
