AudioQuest PT tonearm mass?


Does anyone know the mass of the Audioquest tonearms? Particularly the PT-6 and PT-9, if there is any difference. After a good bit of googling, I have not been able to find these figures so I'd imagine I'm not the only one who would like to know.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks, Bob. Vinyl Engine is a great resource and one I've been all over recently--but the particular mass figure isn't available there or anywhere else. It is considered a "medium mass arm" but that could mean anywhere from, what, 9g to 13g or so. I suppose I'm trying to figure out if it's closer to Linn Akito mass or closer to Linn Basik mass--or somewhere in the middle like Rega. Just crunching some numbers to figure out what carts would work best on the AQs but it's sounding like they are pretty flexible arms in that regard.

Cheers-
