About Grace F-9 Series

---------------------------

Grace F9 Series are Japanese made, high-output MM (moving-magnet) cartridges with a flat frequency response across the entire audio range.

Features of the F-9 Series include:

Frequency response beyond 60 KHz - suitable for all CD-4 records.

An area of contact on the F-9F and F-9U similar to a cutter stylus - a design based on extensive studies of record grooves and their relationship to an ideal stylus.

An F-9F stylus that reproduces the highest frequencies.

An F-9E elliptical stylus that reproduces stereo and CD-4 with complete compatibility and excellence.

An F-9D and an F-9P with the world standard 16.5u (0.65 mil) conical stylus specified by the lEC for uniform tracking ability.

Extremely small magnet made from a rare earth cobalt formulation on each stylus.

Extremely light but strong cantilever, made from a special low mass alloy, for excellent transient response.

One point support of the stylus assembly which guarantees ideal reproduction in accordance with the laws of motion.

Excellent channel balance and low cross-talk through unique matrical-flux magnetic circuit of the Grace cartridges.

The F-9P, based on the F-9F, design, is recommended for professional use. To withstand the constant and

demanding use by broadcasting stations, recording studios and record producers, the F-9P has been de-

signed for increased stability under strict requirements.

The stylus tip is a 0.65 mil conical type, the standard for broadcast stations. The stylus pressure range is from 2.5 to 4.0 grams. The F-9P satisfies the extraordinary demands made by professionals, while providing the F-9F quality.
