RM-Kanda Hayabusa

Stereo MC Phono Cartridge

Features

  • Brand New generator developed by Eiji Kanda.
  • Low impedance High output ( 0.45mV )with placing original Core(SS-μM) into the magnetic material Neodymium.
  • Removed Yoke, place Core ( SS-μM)into Ring Magnet directly, the magnetic special quality is improved.The magnetic distortion is avoided.
  • The impedance of Coil is so small, that an electric current to the voltage becomes high. Finally the sound stage is made clear.
  • Original custom made suspension wire made sound quality highly.

Why Choose Mutech

Mutech is a highly specialised Japanese phono cartridge manufacturer built around the analogue engineering philosophy of R.M. Kanda, one of the more respected and innovative figures in moving coil cartridge development. Best known for his yokeless ring magnet generator concepts, Kanda-san pursued cartridge designs focused on efficiency, speed, low internal impedance, and preserving the natural energy and realism of vinyl playback.

Rather than following conventional moving coil design approaches, Mutech cartridges utilise unique electromagnetic principles developed to improve signal generation efficiency and reduce magnetic resistance within the generator system itself. The result is a cartridge range that delivers exceptional openness, transient speed, and dynamic expression while maintaining tonal density and musical coherence.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Mutech cartridges have impressed with their ability to present music with remarkable immediacy and realism. There is a vividness and “live” quality to the sound that makes instruments and vocals feel highly present and physically engaging without becoming clinical or fatiguing. These cartridges perform exceptionally well within carefully matched analogue systems where setup precision, tonearm compatibility, and phono stage loading are properly optimised. Geoff and his experienced analogue setup team bring extensive real-world expertise in cartridge mounting, alignment, compliance matching, and vinyl system calibration to ensure customers achieve the full potential these highly specialised cartridges are capable of delivering.

Signature Design and Sound

Handcrafted in Japan, Mutech cartridges are built around R.M. Kanda’s distinctive yokeless ring magnet moving coil architecture. Unlike conventional iron-core moving coil designs, the yokeless structure is engineered to reduce magnetic resistance and improve electromagnetic efficiency, contributing to extremely low internal impedance, improved transient response, and unusually strong signal output for a moving coil cartridge.

One of the defining characteristics of Mutech cartridges is the way they combine speed and resolution with tonal body and musical energy. The presentation feels highly immediate and expressive, with exceptional transient realism through percussion, strings, vocals, and acoustic instruments. Bass remains agile and articulate, while the midrange carries impressive texture and harmonic density without sounding overly warm or coloured.

Mutech Product Range

Mutech’s cartridge range centres on handcrafted moving-coil designs that combine traditional Japanese craftsmanship with advanced yokeless ring-magnet technology developed by legendary designer Eiji Kanda. Models such as the Hayabusa and flagship Hayate feature ultra-low impedance generators, proprietary SS-μM core materials, boron cantilevers, and precision line-contact styli engineered for exceptional detail retrieval, tonal purity, and low distortion. Built in limited quantities and refined through decades of analogue expertise, Mutech cartridges are prized for their natural musicality, expansive soundstage, and remarkably transparent presentation.

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 1 reviews.

Having been a vinyl man for over 40 years, I can tell you that arms and cartridges ARE important. For cartridges I have experienced Rega (Rega Apheta 3 and Rega Aphelion) and a Ortofon (Cadenza Blue, Bronze and Black to name a few) the Mutech RM-Kanda Hayabusa is a considerable betterment of in all aspects of sound. Firstly, it's like a piece of jewelry; refined, compact and robust enough to give you confidence. Secondly, the sound on my system is completely another level to my previous cartridges. Greater soundstage, both depth and width, more detail on the highs and no sign of bass thinness that other cartridges (above) have presented. Worth every cent and has opened my eyes to value at a higher cost. Thanks Geoff for the direction and the good price.
