The Audio Technica AT-OC 5 is a phono cartridge designed for vinyl record playback. It features a cantilever made from aluminum, which is known for its lightweight properties that help in reducing tracking distortion. The stylus is crafted with a microlinear shape, enhancing its ability to trace the grooves of a record more accurately and providing improved detail and clarity in sound reproduction. The cartridge has a tracking force range of 1.5 to 2.0 grams, allowing for flexible adjustment depending on individual preferences and the specific turntable setup. The frequency response typically spans from 15 Hz to 25 kHz, ensuring that it can reproduce a wide range of audio frequencies. Its output voltage is approximately 0.3 mV (at 1 kHz), making it compatible with a majority of standard phono preamps. The AT-OC 5 is also known for its low internal impedance, which can contribute to a more dynamic audio performance when paired correctly with compatible equipment.
