Nagaoka MP300 Cartridge
The Nagaoka MP-300 is a very musical and detailed transducer that will enable you to enjoy your records more than you ever dreamed possible. This is thanks to an extremely rigid body giving ultra-low resonance and excellent sound quality. A super elliptical diamond stylus is attached to a rigid boron cantilever which then gives a healthy output due to the powerful samarium cobalt magnet.
The Nagaoka MP-300 is a high-end moving magnet phono cartridge, which delivers sophistication, refinement and high definition at all audible frequencies thus making it a favourite phonograph cartridge and a must-have for the true vinyl lover and enthusiast.
It is nimble on the grooves and easy on the ears so you keep on wanting to listen. The Nagaoka MP300 is an advanced technology cartridge that is destined to become a classic out of the box.
Utilising an exclusive, super-rigid body, the MP-300 delivers ultra resonance and superb fidelity and fine detail recovery, aided by a superfine polished special elliptical bonded diamond stylus and a powerful samarium cobalt magnet. The hardened-low mass, high-strength boron cantilever offers impeccable tracking.

Hifi Gear thinks....
The MP300 cartridge is an instore favourite for many reasons, the 1st being it works brilliantly with a great variety of turntables and setups. We've had great success with it on both Linn and Rega turntables in the shop and fitted it to a variety of different turntables. Thanks to its super high end stylus and ultra stiff boron cantiliver, the sound produced is incisive and agile with a remarkable level of depth to the sound.
