Nagaoka MP150 cartridge

Nagaoka builds all high-precision micro-components within each cartridge specifically within their own factory, this includes the diamond tips, the specialist samarium cobalt magnets, right down to the cantilevers.

The MP-150 Features excellent tracking ability thanks to its Superfine polished elliptical diamond stylus tip mated to a lightweight aluminium alloy cantilever, it has a full-bodied sound quality of great transparency and incredible dynamics.

We have found that the MP-150 works brilliantly with a number of turntables, but have had great results with both the Rega Planar 3 and Planar 6. It offers in our opinion a fantastic soundstage, with class-leading clarity and superb bass performance. We have this cartridge on demo in the store and will happily set it up for you on any turntable we offer to show you what it really offers.
