Conical Stylus Quality
Do not underestimate the quality of a conical stylus. Many vinyl enthusiasts appreciate the powerful and present musical sound of a conical stylus, often preferring it over the quest for more and more high-frequency details. The Nagaoka MP-100 / MP-100H is one of these high-quality and open conical cartridges that can give you a fantastic vocal reproduction experience, offering musical clarity and expression beyond its price tag.
Permalloy Magnet Principle
As a permalloy magnet principle cartridge, the Nagaoka MP-100 allows you to replace the stylus when it wears out at a reasonable cost. Additionally, you can upgrade to the boron cantilever stylus of the MP-200 for even clearer high fidelity.
Stylus Guard
A stylus guard is included with the cartridge to protect it during transportation and when not in use. The stylus guard is also sold separately should you ever find yourself in need of a spare.
Included Accessories
- MP-100: The box includes accessories for mounting the cartridge in most headshells, with two sets of screws of approximate lengths 10mm and 13mm, two plastic washers, two bolts, and a small screwdriver. Should you require screws of a different length, we offer sets of screws in a larger variety.
- MP-100H: Since the cartridge is pre-mounted on a headshell, no screwdriver and spare screws and bolts are included by Nagaoka as is the case with the MP-100 version without headshell.
