I also own Mark Levinson MLC-1, which does have the aluminum cantilever and Ogura PA stylus. It has 0.24 mV output and 4 ohm internal impedance, very similar to the specs of the MCA. I have seen identical specs for the Cello and Red Rose models as well as for Miyabi Standard.
I wish to know as much as possible about all Miyabi incarnations. Here is what i know about my two different samples. Miyabi MCA is virtually unknown, no reviews about this cartridge.
Similar specs but slightly different in frequency response, compliance, cartridge impedance, chose if stylus profile, recommended tracking force, cartridge own weight.
******Specs miyabi MCA:
Output Voltage 0.25mV (3.54cm/sec., 1KHz)
Frequency Response 10Hz - 50KHz
Tracking Force Range 1.5 - 2.0 grams
Optimum Tracking Force 1.8 grams
Dynamic Compliance 8.5 x 10-6 cm/dyne (Vertical & Lateral)
Internal Impedance 4.0 ohms (Pure Resistance)
Stylus: Special Elliptical (PH Semi Line Contact)
Cantilever: Step-Tapered System
Weight 8.5 grams
******Specs of Miyabi Standard:
Output Voltage 0.2mV
Frequency Response 20Hz - 40KHz
Tracking Force Range 1.5 - 2.0 grams
Optimum Tracking Force 2 grams
Dynamic Compliance 9 x 10-6 cm/dyne (Vertical & Lateral)
Internal Impedance 2 ohms
Stylus: Line contact
Cantilever: Special aluminum alloy (read Takeda’s secret)
Weight 13.5 grams
The magnets material is Alnico and the coils are copper.
