A precision-machined brass cap with threaded mounting holes enhances tonearm compatibility and rigidity, producing deeper bass and improved dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey magnetic circuit components—including the yoke, pole pieces, and gold-plated terminal pins—are cryogenically treated to enhance material stability, reduce magnetic distortion, and optimize signal transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eEL MK II\u003c\/strong\u003e uses the same Alnico generator with 8Ω coil found in the Hana Umami Blue, ML, and SL MK II, offering high-level performance with ideal compatibility for MC phono stages set to a 100-ohm input impedance. The \u003cstrong\u003eEH MK II\u003c\/strong\u003e is optimized for standard MM phono inputs, extending Hana’s latest performance gains to a broader range of analog systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1970 by Masao Okada-san, Excel Sound of Yokohama is a leading Japanese phono cartridge manufacturer. Every Hana cartridge—from the E Series MK II to the flagship Umami Black—is hand-built by the same master craftsmen. Their exceptional precision, consistency, and attention to detail creates Hana’s “Brilliant and Gorgeous” sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hana","offers":[{"title":"EL (Low Output)","offer_id":42655037915182,"sku":"HANA-E-SERIES-MKII-LOW-OUTPUT","price":550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EH (High Output)","offer_id":42655037947950,"sku":"HANA-E-SERIES-MKII-HIGH-OUTPUT","price":550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0035\/4058\/2446\/files\/EH-Clipping.jpg?v=1788206941","url":"https:\/\/audioartcable.com\/products\/hana-e-series-mkii-cartridge","provider":"Audio Art Cable","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
