New top of the line cartridge from Nagaoka! It took a very long time for this new model to be developed over the best in class MP-500 which is to say they really took their time on the R&D side to build something that is truly special. You are getting a boron cantilever matched with a micro ridge nude stylus and a completely new suspension system that makes this a major leap ahead of the rest of the Nagaoka range.

This is a cartridge that will work with any standard MM input but it will easily compete with a variety of MC cartridges without needing to change your current phono preamp.
