Nagaoka MP-200H. Pre-mounted MM Cartridge with Boron Cantilever
The Nagaoka MP-200H is the pre-mounted headshell version of the acclaimed MP-200 cartridge, offering a rich, fluid, and highly engaging sound. Positioned in the mid-range of Nagaoka’s MM lineup, it inherits much of the sonic character of its flagship sibling, the MP-500—delivering refined musicality, full-spectrum detail, and a deeply natural vocal presentation.
Thanks to its superfine elliptical stylus mounted on a rigid boron cantilever, the MP-200H delivers precise, warm, and dynamic playback—ideal for vocals, acoustic instruments, and demanding analog recordings.
