Introducing the HANA UMAMI RED MC Cartridge

Master cartridge designer Masao Okada-san drew inspiration from the concept of "Umami," the fifth taste category, when crafting the high-end HANA UMAMI RED MC Cartridge. This extraordinary cartridge blends traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern audio engineering, featuring ebony wood, rare-earth magnets, precision-cut diamonds, high-purity copper wires, Urushi lacquering, and CNC machined Duralumin components to create a harmonious synergy that delivers a truly memorable and emotionally engaging musical experience.

Every element of the HANA UMAMI RED is meticulously crafted in-house by Excel Sound, a company with a rich history spanning over 50 years. The result is an intensely musical cartridge that embodies the HANA commitment to "Brilliant and Gorgeous" sound quality.
