Reference Notes
Shallowest cup in the A series. 17mm internal diameter with 3.9mm grain. The shallow cup favours upper-register clarity and fast air speeds. Compatible with any A-series rim profile (AF, AO, AR, AS, AV, AW). Use these measurements as a comparison starting point: fit and response still depend on the player, dental structure, instrument receiver, and each manufacturer's measuring method.
