Boron is far stiffer than aluminium for its weight, so it passes on what the diamond finds without flexing and adding a signature of its own. Nagaoka's own claim is that the groove is traced accurately as a result, and the company characterises the presentation as calm and richly coloured, with reverberation impressively expressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResponse extends to 23 kHz where the models below stop at 20 kHz, and channel separation reaches 25 dB. Output is 4 mV into a standard 47 kΩ moving-magnet input with 100 pF of capacitance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe H version saves you the alignment. Nagaoka mounts and aligns the cartridge in the headshell at the factory; you fit the shell to the arm and set tracking force. Arm-specific settings — tracking force, anti-skate, overhang — still want checking during setup. Total weight with the headshell is 16.5 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMP-200 cartridge factory-mounted on a genuine Nagaoka headshell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits any tonearm with a standard removable SME-style headshell connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoron cantilever with a 0.4 × 0.7 mil nude elliptical diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResponse extended to 23 kHz; 25 dB channel separation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 mV output into a standard 47 kΩ moving magnet input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Hi-Fi?
