The Hana SL is the most reviewed and awarded Hana cartridge to date. It is distinguished by its black body and a Shibata stylus expertly mounted to its aluminum cantilever. The Hana SL features tighter channel balance, greater channel separation, and improved high-frequency extension.

Remarkably smooth frequency response...terrific value for the money.

In the same class as a cartridge costing 10x the price.
