Further development of the 9W1, designed with a slightly shorter effective length allowing a wider range of turntables to work with an AMG tonearm. Excellent spatial presence and dynamic performance owed to a resonance-optimized design. All of AMG‘s precision adjustments of tonearm setup parameters are offered, with highest grade materials, individually assembled by hand and carefully measured and tested.

The magnetic anti-skating system :

Highly accurate and adjustable magnetic anti-skating mechanism for perfectly centered and distortion-free groove tracking. 

                                                                                        The integrated azimuth adjustment :

Accurate adjustment with fine-thread adjustment screw as the basis of perfectly aligned groove scanning.

The VTA :

Precise fine tuning and repeatable adjustment of tonearm height by means of integrated bubble level and vertical threaded adjustment rod. 

The internal wiring :

Gold-plated plug connections and hand made wiring with special winding pattern to cancel magnetic field resonances, resulting in the highest acoustic transparency, detail, and presence.

The arm tube :

Precisely calculated ratio of wand diameter / length effective length matched with specifications of the high-grade aluminum arm material ensures the lowest possible resonance behavior.

                                                                                       The counterweight as the basis of dynamics :

Stainless steel counterweight for perfect weight adjustment.

Two-piece counterweight for perfect weight adjustment. Significantly higher dynamics and sonic precision through optimized force / mass distribution throughout the tonearm system. The kinetic energy remains in the cartridge and guarantees vibrational isolation, resulting in excellent control and clarity of bass response.
