About the F-9 with F-14 Stylus
The Grace F-9 series are Japanese-made, high-output moving magnet (MM) cartridges with a flat frequency response across the entire audio range, extending beyond 60 kHz, making them suitable for all CD-4 records. The F-9 features an extremely small rare earth cobalt magnet and a very light but strong cantilever made from a special low mass alloy for excellent transient response. It uses a one-point support stylus assembly to guarantee ideal reproduction according to the laws of motion, resulting in excellent channel balance and low cross-talk through a unique matrical-flux magnetic circuit. The F-9E elliptical stylus reproduces stereo and CD-4 with complete compatibility and excellence. The F-14 stylus is compatible with the F-9 cartridge and shares similar features to the Level II stylus, providing an upgrade path for F-9 users. The cartridge is highly regarded for its detailed, natural sound, excellent imaging, and holographic 3D effect, often compared favorably to many high-end moving coil cartridges. It has universal acceptance by broadcasters and record manufacturers and is considered one of the finest cartridges in the world in terms of sound quality.
