Nagaoka

When it comes to precision in vinyl playback, few names carry the legacy and trust of Nagaoka. Established in Japan more than 85 years ago, Nagaoka has earned its reputation as a world leader in phono cartridges, replacement styli, and record care accessories. Every product reflects true Japanese craftsmanship — combining advanced materials, meticulous design, and decades of experience in the art of analogue sound reproduction.

At Groove Central, we stock a complete range of Nagaoka cartridges and styli — from the legendary MP Series moving iron cartridges (MP-100 through MP-500) to their high-performance JT line MM cartridges, and the recently released, award-winning MP-700 flagship model. Each cartridge is designed to extract remarkable detail from every record groove while maintaining warmth, depth, and musicality. Precision-ground diamond tips, lightweight cantilevers, and expertly tuned suspension systems are engineered to minimise distortion and surface noise, ensuring a clean, dynamic, and natural listening experience.

But Nagaoka’s commitment goes beyond cartridges. Their range of record sleeves, cleaning accessories, and anti-static tools has become a staple for collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. These products are designed to protect your records, extend stylus life, and preserve sound quality — keeping every play as pure as the first.

Nagaoka represents the perfect balance between heritage and innovation. Whether you’re rediscovering your vinyl collection or building a new turntable setup, their products deliver exceptional value and performance without unnecessary complexity.
