NAGAOKA HS-10 Headshell

NAGAOKA HS-10 Magnesium Headshell with Adjustable Azimuth

The NAGAOKA HS-10 Headshell is a high-quality universal 1/2" headshell designed for 4-pin phono cartridges with or without threaded mounting holes. This headshell is engineered for audiophiles seeking maximum precision from their turntable setup.

This headshell is originally supplied with the NAGAOKA MP-300H, MP-500H, and MP-700H cartridges.

Thanks to the long slotted mounting holes, the cartridge can be positioned with extreme accuracy for correct overhang and optimal tonearm geometry. The adjustable azimuth allows precise alignment of the stylus perpendicular to the record groove. This is particularly important because not every SME-type tonearm is mounted perfectly square.

The lightweight die-cast magnesium/aluminum construction minimizes unwanted resonance and vibration, while the high-quality OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) headshell leads ensure optimal signal transmission.

The shape of the finger lift provides extra control during cueing.

Supplied without retail packaging.

A 1.3 mm hex (Allen) key / screwdriver is required for azimuth adjustment (not included).
