Hana SLM MKII Mono Moving Coil Cartridge

Hana SLM MKII Mono Moving Coil Cartridge

The SLM MK II Mono cartridge features enhancements designed to improve musical performance while delivering exceptional value within the S Series price range. A newly designed tapered aluminium cantilever with increased rigidity significantly boosts the transfer of groove modulation from vinyl records to the cartridge generator. The S Series Mk II includes many high-spec components, advanced materials, and innovative technical processes inspired by Hana’s premium elite cartridge models, contributing to their renowned “brilliant and gorgeous” sound.

Key Features - New Mono MKII: 

  • A new tapered aluminium cantilever with increased rigidity and effective mass reduction at the nude diamond Shibata stylus tip. 
  • Non-resonant body shape, modelled after the Hana M series.
  • Damped with a matte soft feel black elastomeric resin paint.
  • Brass top to body for resonance reduction.
  • Internally threaded cartridge mounting. 

Essential components such as the yoke, pole pieces, and gold terminal pins undergo cryogenic treatment to enhance sound quality. The non-resonant body shape, inspired by the Hana M Series, is coated with a matte Soft Feel Black elastomeric resin and features a brass top cap with integrated threaded mounting for the cartridge. The heavier Mk II cartridge ensures better coupling, enhancing bass and dynamics while expanding compatibility across a wider range of tonearms.

The SL MK II generator, also found in the Umami Blue and ML models, utilises an Alnico magnet and cross-coil design. It employs high-purity 30-micron copper wire with an 8O impedance, resulting in improved signal-to-noise ratio and reduced moving mass. These refined design features provide greater resolution and accuracy, optimising performance for a wider array of phono stages.
