Description
The HANA-Umami Black continues the brandโs legacy of โBrilliant and Gorgeousโ sound.
Master cartridge designer Masao Okada-san of Excel Sound celebrates over 5 decades of innovation and excellence with his new masterpiece, featuring a diamond cantilever and new โOKDโ High-Efficiency Moving Coil Generator. The Umami Black is much more than just an Umami Red with a diamond cantilever.
ย
High-Efficiency โOKDโ Moving Coil Generator
Another category first, the Umami Black uses the newly developed โOKDโ with the worldโs first โIntegrated Pole Piece and Rear Yokeโ and Inverted U-shaped Front Yoke, optimising energy transfer from the diamond cantilever.
Diamond Cantilever
In a category first for HANA, the Umami Black incorporates a diamond cantilever, the hardest possible material, ideal for signal transfer.
Inverted U Front Yoke
The U-shaped (bifurcated) inverted front yoke is engineered for both mechanical resonance control and magnetic field alignment, while also providing precise support for the diamond cantilever.
High-Power Rare Earth Magnet
Unique to the Umami Black, the rare-earth neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnet is used in the high-efficiency generator, delivering superior energy conversion.
Hybrid Carbon Armature
A 2mm square hybrid Carbon permalloy armature, comprising 78% carbon-infused nickel-iron, is precisely hand-wound with 30-micron, 4N high-purity copper wire on Excelโs proprietary machinery. This ultra-light moving coil has an output of 0.3mV at 5 ohms.
Special Urushi Enamelled Finish
The HANA-Umami Black features an exquisite Urushi lacquer finish, applied through a specialised thermosetting process that bonds to the aluminium body via vapour deposition.
