Review on NAGAOKA MP 110H Cartridge Shell Japan by Jacob Richardson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Precise, beautiful sound.

This cartridge is amazing. Even on an old Sony turntable, this cartridge reproduced detail and nuance across the spectrum from low to high and even at fairly low volumes. It has increased my enjoyment of my record collection, especially female vocals, jazz and classical records. Voices have a realistic sense of presence with this device. This pickup doesn't seem to color the sound, make it warmer or more technical. In my opinion you can hear precision and detail without sacrificing bass or other important aspects of the recording. The requirements may be different for a top accuracy system, but for a high quality system that most people personally have, my experience with this cartridge was well beyond what I expected and I would recommend it without hesitation. Just make sure you use a protractor to set the turntable properly.

Pros
  • build quality
Cons
  • the list will be long.
