XTC088 Type P UPGRADE COUNTERWEIGHT FOR Pro-Ject 9, 9C and 9CC TONEARMS.

Please leave a note for 8.6 or Evolution collars if required.

More compact than the lightweight original, and thus it can be heavier, this 88gm counterweight allows a wider
cartridge range, with the usual benefits of the low centre of gravity XTC design.

The 9C and Xpression turntable are shown for photographic purposes only.

COMPATIBILITY Cartridge weight inc. screws, 1.5gm tracking weight.

Pro-ject 9   3 to 9.5gm
Pro-ject 9C   3 to 9.5gm
Pro-ject 9CC   6 to 14
gm



Delivered in excellent condition and very quickly brilliant upgrade for Pro-Ject arm. (Evo)

Received my counterweight today.  Tracking has improved immensely on my MC cartridge, and there is more than a subtle change in sound.  I am officially a believer. Miles Davis never sounded so good.  🎺 Thank you 🎺

The design of XTC places its lowered Centre of Gravity closer to the plane of the stylus than other "dropped" counterweights can manage.
The rotational forces have less vector variation which improves tracking.
XTC is available for a number of arms, and has consistently had positive effects.
The counterweight itself is lacquered brass, with a delrin collar and stainless steel set screw. 

Even though the original counterweight on the Pro-ject arms is dropped, it still sits over 7mm ABOVE the stylus plane.
Factor in the mass of the arm and headshell, and the arm's CG is now 9mm ABOVE the stylus plane.
Conclusion: a so-called "dropped" counterweight has to be significantly lower.

These arms have benefitted from XTC: Alphason, Audiocraft, Funk Firm F.XR, Hadcock, Infinity, JMW, Mission, Origin Live,
Pro-ject, Rega, Roksan, Hadcock, JMW, Linn, Schroeder, SME 3009 and Well Tempered.
 

 

 

FUNK FIRM FXR feedback:

Good product, great seller. Couldn't be more helpful. 10/10 (Light for F.XR)
Message: I've left feedback. I'm really pleased with the weight by the way. I've been getting a tiny bit of distortion towards
the middle of discs, which, having eliminated everything else, I think can only be down to tracking error. It seems better
now, so I'm very happy. Looks great too!
Robert, UK

Really well made item, next day delivery, highly recommended seller, AAA+++++ (Light for F.XR)
Ross, UK

All very good here. An impressive product that does exactly what's said in the ad. (standard for F.XR)
Stephen, UK

Soundstage has improved greatly in width and depth-also set up looks better without
the headshell weight!  (message received: Ultralight version for Funk Firm F.XR)
John, UK

My brother Tim recently bought your counterweight for his new Funk FXR11 tonearm to which I had the pleasure of
an
evening with hooked up to my modified Rega 300 bolted to a hot rodded Audionote TT2. Suffice to say my
tracking (Which was already very good) improved greatly sounding like my tonearm had suddenly grown 3 inches!
Wow! I won't bore you superlatives, suffice to say it is the most cost effective upgrade I've ever heard.
Reluctantly I returned
it to my brother and vowed to have one ASAP!

Well made, good quality, right price, highly recommended, AAAA+++++  (Type M7-Mission 774)

Tried out the counterweight last night. Amazing improvement over the stock CW in every way. Most noticeably, as they say
so often, a veil is lifted. Everything is less tentative. Bass coming through more solid, percussions  have the final "ring" of
the real things, more depth and soundstage anchored more accurately. These are all preliminary impressions after a few hours
of listening. I have no hesitation recommending your CW to Hadcock owners if these prelim impressions hold up & I think
they will.
