Overview
The Nagaoka JN-P150 is the original replacement stylus for the Nagaoka MP-150 phono cartridge. Designed with a 0.4 x 0.7 mil superfine polished elliptical diamond tip and a hardened low-mass tapered aluminum alloy cantilever, it delivers a refined, dynamic listening experience. Known for its warmth, wide soundstage, and punchy bass, the JN-P150 offers a musical and natural presentation, especially suited for vocals and analog-rich recordings.
While specifically made for the MP-150, the JN-P150 is also compatible with MP-100, MP-110, and MP-200 cartridge bodies—ideal for users looking to upgrade or fine-tune their sound. Nagaoka recommends a break-in period of approximately 30 hours for optimal performance.
