MP Series MP-110 & MP-110H Replacement Stylus JN-P110

I ordered an MP-110 a few years ago and was completely blown away how good it sounds on my system. The warmth of this cartridge and stylus complements my vintage setup perfectly which consists of: a Marantz 6300 turntable inherited from my dad after he passed away, a lesbox modified Yaqin MS23B all tube phono stage, a handful of warm sounding receivers by Sansui, Pioneer, Technics, Sherwood, and possibly my favorite a Yamaha CR-440 which isn't as warm as the others, but has a perfectly balanced "natural sound" that Yamaha is known for, and for speakers some mid-fi Polk, Sansui, and Kenwood (which sound great to my ears though). Recently I heard a tiny bit of distortion and after troubleshooting by resetting all turntable adjustments and swapping out tubes I suspected a worn stylus since I've put in approximately 700 hours. Nagaoka's recommended stylus replacement after 150-200 hours is completely absurd. Although I don't have a microscope to see the stylus up close I can tell by ear it far surpasses their recommendation. I ordered up a JN P-110 and sure enough that perfectly magical sound was back! Highly recommended for rich, detailed, warm sound from your records! PS - I've tried the JN P-200 stylus on my MP-110 cartridge body and it sounded better than the P-110 but I don't think the price was worth the upgrade. It might be worth it if you use it on the recommended P-200 cartridge body.

I love this cart on my Technichs SL-1200 MkII turntable. Records sound clear across the full sound spectrum with minimal inner groove distortion without breaking the bank.

Awesome stylus- perfect. Arrived quickly

Bought as a spare for my cartridge. Musically good.

Easy to install, valuable item only ordered to have the replacement for when the day comes.

The stylus replacement did the job. The sound is warm , clear and crisp.

I've had my nagaoka mp-110 for about 3 years now. I first started noticing more distortion followed by random skipping. I looked at the stylus tip and it was looking dark (not dirt) and nub-like. It was a clear indicator it was time to replace it with a new one. Very simple to install (plug and play). I put in one of the and new records that didn't sound so hot with my original. It was night and day different. Even the bass seemed to get a hit from the worn original. I'm overall pretty happy with the hours I got out this stylus. I would recommend this product for those needing a fresh needle. My only complaint is Amazon should ship this in a box instead of a thinly padded mailer. There was a crack in the hard plastic protection box the stylus was in. Thankfully nothing was damaged.

2nd time to order Nagaoka MP110. First was 3 years ago and it has been my daily cart/stylus and more than happy for its sonic performance. Well it gave up on me 3 years later, that's why the 2nd order. I actually at first ordered AT, and right away returned it and decided for the Nagaoka MP 110 again.
