Get Absorbing Performance, Accurate Tracking, and Detail Retrieval for a Veritable Song: Giant-Killing Hana E Series MK II MC Phono Cartridge Features Elastomer Coating, Brass Cap, and Cryogenically Treated Circuit Parts

You'll seldom encounter a better reason to dump the stock cartridge that came with your turntable or upgrade an entry-level model you'd purchased than the Hana E Series MK II MC phono cartridge. Improving on the multi-award-winning original design with an elastomer coating that decreases mechanical resonance; a precision-machined brass cap with threaded mounting holes for wide-ranging tonearm capability and deep bass; and cryogenically treated circuit components that extend to the yoke, pole pieces, and gold-plated terminal pins for excellent stability and signal transfer, E Series MK II employs the same Alnico generator with 8Ω coil used the company's Umami Blue, ML, and SL MK II cartridges. A signature elliptical diamond stylus profile continues to give the E Series its name. 

Designed by Masao Okada-san and featuring an M Series body style, E Series MK II is hand-made at Excel Sound by master cartridge builders and available in high- or low-output configurations. Able to track with class-leading accuracy and play LPs with dynamic, transparent, and finessed sound, E Series MK II is true to the normally over-hyped claim "terrific value for the money." 100% Music Direct Guaranteed.
