Hana S Series MC Cartridge
With over 50 years experience in cartridge design and manufacture, Excel Sound builds many of the most highly regarded high-output MC cartridges.
The Hana SL Low Output MC Cartridge is distinguished by its black body and a Shibata stylus expertly mounted to its aluminum cantilever. The Hana SL features tighter channel balance, greater channel separation, and improved high-frequency extension.
The Hana SH High Output MC Cartridge combines high output with high resolution, courtesy of its special coil design and Shibata stylus. Compatible with standard MM phono stages, a high-output MC provides dynamics, drive, and excellent stereo imaging.
The Hana SL Mono represents the most musical and affordable means to enjoy both the classic records of that era as well as today’s mono re-issues. Embodying the highly acclaimed sound of the Hana SL, the SL Mono, with its special generator and Shibata stylus, optimizes playback of mono LPs.
