Spin Doctor – Why Nagaoka's Sweet Sounding MP-110 is a Phono Cartridge Classic

In this issue, the guys review the direct modern descendent of one of their favourite 1980s pickup cartridges, the Nagaoka MP-11. Suffice to say that they love this latest moving permalloy design as much as they did its predecessor, nearly 40 years ago. They agree that Mike's Linn hasn't sounded as good in a long time... Each episode of Hi-Fi Riff features Mike and David's unedited, unexpurgated views about all manner of weird and wonderful hi-fi designs. Business executive Mike has a wealth of knowledge from previous hi-fi retail experience, and David has written about hi-fi for thirty years. Now Editor-in-Chief of StereoNET, he's picked up a few things along the way. So relax and enjoy some one-take hi-fi riffing – and please leave your comments below. And don’t forget to hit the Subscribe button, this one goes up to eleven! The eighties-tastic title tune is called ‘UFO/Mike’s Jumper’, and used with the express permission of our old pal and rights holder Simon Lythe.
