Audio T Verdict
The Hana M Series is where the brand takes a significant step beyond the E and S Series, not simply by changing the stylus but by developing almost every part of the cartridge around more ambitious groove retrieval and resonance control.
Both the ML and MH use a nude MicroLine stylus mounted to an aluminium cantilever. The fine MicroLine profile is designed to sit more precisely within the record groove, following very small modulations and maintaining contact as the groove becomes increasingly tightly packed towards the centre of an LP.
Behind the stylus is a high-purity copper moving-coil generator using an Alnico magnet and pure-iron magnetic circuit. Critical parts of that circuit are cryogenically treated, while the generator is mounted within a rigid Delrin body capped by a machined brass plate.
The choice between ML and MH is primarily electrical. The ML is the purist low-output version, producing 0.4mV from an 8-ohm generator and requiring a suitable moving-coil phono stage with loading above 100 ohms. The MH produces 2.0mV from a 130-ohm generator and is designed for conventional 47k-ohm moving-magnet phono amplification.
Both weigh 9.5g, track at a recommended 2.0g and provide 30dB channel separation with a specified frequency response extending from 12Hz to 45kHz.
The captive threaded mounting inserts are a deceptively useful touch too. There are no tiny nuts to balance above the cartridge while trying to align it, making physical installation considerably less frustrating than many traditional moving-coil designs.
For a good turntable and tonearm where the E or S Series is beginning to become the limiting factor, the M Series represents a substantial step up while still remaining refreshingly practical to own and set up.
Hana M Series MH and ML MicroLine Moving Coil Cartridge

- 9.5g cartridge weight
- 16.3mm cartridge height
- Black finish with brass plate
- Hand-assembled in Japan
Hana ML or Hana MH?
Mechanically, the ML and MH are very closely related. The important difference is the generator and the phono amplification required.
Hana ML
- Low-output moving coil
- 0.4mV output
- 8-ohm internal impedance
- Greater than 100-ohm recommended loading
- Requires suitable MC gain
- Nude MicroLine stylus
- Aluminium cantilever
- 9.5g weight
Hana MH
- High-output moving coil
- 2.0mV output
- 130-ohm internal impedance
- 47k-ohm recommended loading
- Designed for suitable MM phono stages
- Nude MicroLine stylus
- Aluminium cantilever
- 9.5g weight
Choose the Version to Suit Your Phono Stage
If you already have a capable low-output moving-coil phono stage, the ML is the logical choice.
If you have a high-quality moving-magnet phono stage that you want to retain, the MH provides the same M Series mechanical platform with a much higher 2.0mV output.
Nude MicroLine Stylus
One of the defining features of the Hana M Series is its:
Nude MicroLine diamond stylus.
The profile is designed to resemble the shape of the cutting stylus used when the original lacquer master is created.
Its narrow contact geometry allows the stylus to follow very fine groove modulation while maintaining an extended contact area against the groove wall.
What Does Nude Mean?
A nude stylus uses the diamond itself as the complete stylus tip and mounting shank rather than attaching a smaller diamond tip to another material.
This reduces unnecessary mass within the moving assembly and removes an additional mechanical interface between the groove and cantilever.
Why Use a MicroLine Stylus?
A correctly aligned MicroLine profile can provide:
- Very precise groove tracing
- Excellent high-frequency tracking
- Fine detail retrieval
- Reduced tracing distortion
- Improved retrieval of inner-groove information
- Extended contact with the groove walls
The trade-off is that fine-line stylus profiles are less forgiving of poor cartridge setup than simpler spherical or elliptical designs.
MicroLine Rewards Accurate Alignment
Correct overhang, offset angle and cartridge alignment become particularly worthwhile with a MicroLine stylus.
A high-performance stylus cannot compensate for incorrect cartridge geometry.
MicroLine or Shibata?
Hana's S Series MK II uses a Shibata stylus while the M Series moves to MicroLine.
Both are advanced line-contact profiles capable of tracing much more of the groove wall than a basic elliptical stylus.
The distinction between the S and M Series should not be reduced to stylus shape alone, however. The M Series also incorporates a different cartridge body, brass damping structure, higher-purity coil wire and its own generator construction.
Aluminium Cantilever
The MicroLine stylus is mounted to an aluminium cantilever.
The cantilever transfers the tiny movements of the stylus into the moving-coil generator, making its rigidity and mass important to the cartridge's ability to follow groove modulation accurately.
Moving Coil Generator
Both M Series versions use a moving-coil generator.
Very small coils connected to the cantilever assembly move within a stationary magnetic field as the stylus traces the groove.
The voltage generated depends partly on the coil construction, which is why Hana can offer mechanically similar ML and MH cartridges with very different output levels.
High-Purity Copper Coil Wire
Hana uses high-purity copper wire for the M Series moving coils.
In the low-output ML, Hana's current low-impedance generator is wound to provide an 8-ohm internal impedance and 0.4mV output.
This same basic Alnico-based generator architecture is also used within the considerably more expensive Hana Umami Blue.
Alnico Magnetic System
The M Series generator uses an Alnico magnet.
In a moving-coil cartridge the magnet remains stationary while the small coil assembly moves with the cantilever.
Pure-Iron Magnetic Circuit
Pure iron is used within the magnetic circuitry surrounding the generator.
Hana combines this with the Alnico magnet and high-purity copper coil wire to create the cartridge's electro-motive circuit.
Cryogenic Processing
Critical parts of the M Series magnetic circuit undergo cryogenic treatment.
This process involves cooling metal components to extremely low temperatures before returning them gradually to normal temperature.
Hana applies the process to parts including:
- Front yoke
- Centre magnetic components
- Rear magnetic components
The aim is to improve the consistency of the magnetic circuit and reduce unwanted distortion within the generator.
Delrin Cartridge Body
The M Series cartridge body is manufactured from POM, or polyoxymethylene, using DuPont's Delrin material.
Delrin is a rigid engineering polymer selected by Hana for its mechanical strength and resonance-control properties.
Rather than simply surrounding the generator with a decorative shell, the cartridge body forms part of the mechanical interface between stylus, generator, mounting structure and tonearm.
Machined Brass Cap
A machined brass cap forms the upper structure of the cartridge.
Hana uses the combination of Delrin and brass as a constrained-layer damping arrangement, combining materials with different mechanical properties to help control unwanted resonance.
Why Does the M Series Weigh More?
At:
9.5g
the M Series is substantially heavier than the original 5g Hana E Series cartridges.
The Delrin body, brass cap and mounting structure all contribute to this additional mass.
The greater weight can improve mechanical coupling with suitable tonearms, but it also makes checking counterweight range and arm compatibility important.
Check Your Tonearm Counterweight Range
Do not assume that a tonearm designed around a very light cartridge will automatically accommodate a 9.5g M Series cartridge.
Check the permitted cartridge-weight range and available counterweight adjustment before installation.
Threaded Mounting Inserts
The M Series body incorporates threaded metal fittings for the cartridge mounting screws.
This means the mounting bolts screw directly into the cartridge rather than requiring separate nuts to be held above or below the headshell.
Why Threaded Mounting Matters
Threaded inserts provide several practical advantages:
- Easier physical installation
- No loose cartridge nuts
- Simpler alignment adjustments
- Secure mechanical connection to the headshell
- Reduced risk of dropping hardware near the cantilever
Use the Correct Screw Length
Do not use mounting screws that are excessively long.
The screw needs sufficient thread engagement to secure the cartridge without being forced beyond the available depth of the threaded insert.
Hana ML Low Output Moving Coil
The Hana ML produces:
0.4mV at 1kHz.
This is a conventional low-output moving-coil signal and requires a suitable MC phono stage, step-up solution or another phono system designed to provide the necessary gain.
A Conventional MM Input Is Not Enough for the ML
The 0.4mV output is far lower than that of a typical moving-magnet cartridge.
A normal MM-only input will generally not provide sufficient gain when used directly with the ML.
8-Ohm ML Internal Impedance
Hana currently specifies:
8 ohms at 1kHz.
This relatively low internal impedance helps make the ML suitable for a broad range of dedicated MC phono stages and appropriate step-up devices.
ML Loading Above 100 Ohms
Hana recommends a phono-stage load of:
Greater than 100 ohms.
That provides considerably more flexibility than an MC cartridge requiring a very specific fixed load.
100 Ohms Is a Useful Reference Point
Many moving-coil phono stages offer a 100-ohm setting.
Hana specifies greater than 100 ohms, so if your phono stage provides additional settings above this value they can be worth exploring as part of final system matching.
Gain and Loading Are Different
Phono-stage gain determines how much the ML's 0.4mV signal is amplified.
Loading determines the electrical resistance presented to its 8-ohm generator.
A suitable phono stage must therefore provide both enough clean gain and an appropriate loading option.
Using the ML With a Step-Up Transformer
The low-impedance ML can also be considered for use with a suitably matched moving-coil step-up transformer feeding a moving-magnet phono stage.
The signal path becomes:
Turntable ? MC step-up transformer ? MM phono stage ? amplifier.
Step-Up Transformer Matching Matters
Transformer ratio, cartridge impedance and the load presented by the MM phono stage all interact.
Do not choose a transformer solely because it is labelled for moving-coil cartridges. Audio T can help check whether a particular combination is appropriate.
Hana MH High Output Moving Coil
The Hana MH produces:
2.0mV at 1kHz.
This is five times the output voltage of the ML and allows the cartridge to be used with suitable conventional moving-magnet phono amplification.
Moving Coil Through an MM Phono Stage
The MH is intended for customers who want the M Series moving-coil design but do not have, or do not want to add, a specialist low-output MC phono stage.
Connect it to a suitable 47k-ohm MM phono input.
130-Ohm MH Internal Impedance
The MH generator has an internal impedance of:
130 ohms at 1kHz.
The additional coil winding needed to produce the higher output changes its electrical specification compared with the low-output ML.
47k-Ohm MH Loading
Hana specifies:
47k ohms.
This is the conventional input resistance used by most moving-magnet phono stages.
Do Not Automatically Use an MC Setting
The MH is a moving-coil cartridge mechanically, but its 2.0mV high-output generator is intended for a 47k-ohm MM phono input.
A conventional low-output MC input may provide excessive gain and unsuitable loading.
Will the MH Be Quieter Than a Moving Magnet Cartridge?
Possibly.
The MH produces 2.0mV, while many conventional moving-magnet cartridges produce somewhere around twice that output or more.
You may therefore use more of your amplifier's volume control than you did with your previous MM cartridge.
That is perfectly normal and does not mean the cartridge needs a conventional low-output MC input.
12Hz to 45kHz Frequency Response
Both M Series cartridges are specified at:
12Hz–45kHz.
The extended upper-frequency figure is only one aspect of cartridge performance and should not be considered independently from tracking, stylus geometry, channel performance and correct setup.
30dB Channel Separation
Hana specifies:
30dB at 1kHz.
Channel separation describes the cartridge's ability to keep information recovered from the left and right groove walls electrically distinct.
Less Than 1dB Output Balance
Output balance is specified at:
Less than 1dB at 1kHz.
Close output matching between channels helps support stable stereo positioning and consistent left-to-right presentation.
70µm Trackability
Hana specifies trackability of:
70µm at 2.0g.
This is measured at the cartridge's recommended tracking force.
2.0g Vertical Tracking Force
Both the ML and MH use a recommended vertical tracking force of:
2.0g.
Do Not Deliberately Track Too Lightly
Reducing tracking force below the manufacturer's recommendation does not automatically protect your records.
Insufficient tracking force can allow the stylus to mistrack, potentially creating greater groove stress than using the cartridge at its correct setting.
Use an Accurate Stylus-Force Gauge
Set the tonearm according to the manufacturer's procedure and check the final tracking force using an accurate stylus-force gauge where possible.
Bias or Anti-Skate
Once the 2.0g tracking force is established, set bias or anti-skate using the tonearm manufacturer's recommended method.
Different tonearms apply compensation differently, so there is no single dial position that can be guaranteed across every arm.
16.3mm Cartridge Height
Hana specifies an overall cartridge height of:
16.3mm.
This is worth knowing when replacing a substantially taller or shorter cartridge, particularly on tonearms where height adjustment is limited.
Tonearm Height and VTA
If your tonearm provides height adjustment, the arm can be set so that the cartridge operates within an appropriate vertical geometry once tracking force has been established.
With a fine MicroLine stylus, accurate vertical alignment can become more important than it is with a basic spherical or elliptical profile.
Azimuth
Azimuth describes the side-to-side angle of the stylus in the groove when viewed from the front.
Incorrect azimuth can affect:
- Channel balance
- Stereo focus
- High-frequency tracking
- Distortion
- Groove contact
If your tonearm provides azimuth adjustment, it can form part of final cartridge optimisation.
Accurate Cartridge Alignment
A MicroLine cartridge deserves careful setup.
Installation may include:
- Physical mounting
- Overhang adjustment
- Offset-angle alignment
- Tracking-force setup
- Bias or anti-skate adjustment
- Tonearm-height adjustment where available
- Azimuth adjustment where available
- Phono-stage gain matching
- Phono-stage loading
Do Not Align a MicroLine Cartridge by Eye
Use the geometry specified for your turntable or tonearm, or an appropriate cartridge-alignment protractor.
Small alignment errors become increasingly significant with a fine-line stylus profile.
No User-Replaceable Stylus
Like most moving-coil cartridges, the Hana M Series does not use a detachable user-replaceable stylus assembly.
The stylus, cantilever and moving-coil generator form part of an integrated precision assembly.
Do Not Attempt to Remove the Stylus
The stylus assembly is not designed to slide out of the cartridge body.
If the stylus becomes worn or damaged, contact Audio T for advice on the appropriate replacement or service options.
Stylus Care
The fine MicroLine diamond deserves careful cleaning and handling.
Useful habits include:
- Keep records clean and free from loose dust
- Use an appropriate stylus brush or approved cleaning product
- Use a gentle back-to-front cleaning motion
- Avoid sideways pressure on the cantilever
- Use the tonearm cueing mechanism when lowering the cartridge
- Keep fingers away from the stylus and cantilever
- Turn amplifier volume down while cleaning around the cartridge

- Higher-level cartridge construction
The Umami Blue retains ideas from the ML generator but moves to a substantially more elaborate cartridge body and a solid Boron cantilever.
Explore the Hana Umami Blue at Audio T.
Does the Hana M Need an Expensive Turntable?
There is no meaningful minimum turntable price, but the M Series makes most sense when the rest of the analogue front end is capable of exploiting it.
Useful attributes include:
- A sufficiently capable tonearm
- Accurate cartridge alignment adjustment
- Stable speed performance
- Low bearing and motor noise
- Good mechanical isolation
- Suitable tonearm counterweight range
- A quality phono stage matched to ML or MH output
Installing a sophisticated MicroLine cartridge on a turntable that cannot hold accurate geometry or control mechanical noise is unlikely to extract its full potential.
Professional Cartridge Fitting
Installing a Hana M Series cartridge correctly can involve:
- Checking tonearm weight compatibility
- Careful physical mounting
- Using the correct mounting screws
- Setting overhang
- Setting offset angle
- Checking 2.0g tracking force accurately
- Setting bias or anti-skate
- Adjusting tonearm height where available
- Checking azimuth where available
- Matching MC gain and loading for the ML
- Matching MM gain for the MH
Given the fine MicroLine stylus and the cost of the cartridge, professional installation is particularly worthwhile if you are not already comfortable carrying out these adjustments accurately.
