Designed as the new flagship model in honor of Nagaoka’s 85th anniversary, the MP-700 blends tradition with advanced engineering to push the boundaries of vinyl playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its debut at the prestigious High End Munich show, this cartridge stands as a tribute to the company’s enduring craftsmanship and commitment to sonic excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt upon the Moving Permalloy (MP) design—a refined take on the traditional moving magnet system—the MP-700 reduces cantilever mass to improve responsiveness and musical precision, resulting in a more authentic and vivid sound reproduction that brings listeners closer to the original performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInnovative Design for Superior Sound Reproduction\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the core of the MP-700 is an innovative magnetic circuit that enhances signal transmission and minimizes unwanted vibrations. This is achieved through Nagaoka’s use of a high-strength, low-mass boron cantilever and a meticulously crafted micro-ridge nude diamond stylus measuring just 0.12 x 0.3 mil. The result is outstanding accuracy and detail retrieval from vinyl grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, the cartridge features Nagaoka’s softest damper and a newly integrated suspension wire within the pivot system, ensuring stable stylus movement and controlled resonance. These refinements translate into exceptional clarity, separation, and frequency response—delivering deep bass, natural midrange, and sparkling treble for a listening experience that feels intimate and lifelike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eEngineered for Stability and Longevity\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery aspect of the Nagaoka MP-700 MC Phono Cartridge has been carefully engineered to reduce interference and extend durability. Its shielded case and cartridge frame are constructed from ultra-duralumin, a high-strength copper-aluminum alloy known for its rigidity and lightweight properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis chassis undergoes a specialized three-layer surface treatment involving nickel plating, black tin plating, and an insulating coating. Together, these layers help to reduce static electricity, improve resistance to heat and wear, and preserve the cartridge’s structural integrity over time. These measures ensure consistent, high-fidelity performance and maintain the cartridge’s elegant appearance even with prolonged use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eA Celebration of Heritage and Future Innovation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe launch of the Nagaoka MP-700 MC Phono Cartridge is not only a celebration of the brand’s remarkable 85-year legacy but also a bold step forward into the future of analog audio. Originally a manufacturer of precision components for watches and jewelry, Nagaoka has spent decades perfecting the delicate balance of mechanical precision and acoustic artistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MP-700 embodies this heritage while setting a new standard in the high-end phono cartridge market. The MP-700 has been designed to give exceptional value for audiophiles seeking unparalleled musical realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Order Item - HAND CRAFTED IN JAPAN - Please read T\u0026amp;C'S and Returns Policy Prior to ordering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nagaoka","offers":[{"title":"Cartridge","offer_id":55426543681909,"sku":"","price":22635.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cartridge + Headshell","offer_id":55426543714677,"sku":"","price":24625.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stylus","offer_id":55426543747445,"sku":"","price":11801.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2222\/0805\/files\/nagaoka-mp-700-mc-phono-cartridge3.jpg?v=1748435542","url":"https:\/\/www.kronosav.com\/en-mx\/products\/nagaoka-mp-700-flagship-mm-cartridge","provider":"Kronos AV","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
