Yes, the MP-500 is 720 mH.
Cable, in my case, is 58 pF.
Miller pF is unknown.
Is that total cable inside tonearm + tonearm cable?

Just the external cable.
Not including the pF inside the tonearm.

Regarding the MP500 can you say something about its physical dimension of the top (length and with). It seems to me that the top is not completely even/flat. I might buy one but I need to know if it is compatible with my current UP-4 arm.

When trying to tune capacitance for cart loading it really helps to know where you are starting from and without a meter you are really driving blind.
I have no patience for that when I can just EQ it directly, if desired, and then test the effect on sweeps.
Intuitively it makes sense that it would be better to get as flat a response as possible in the analog world before you apply DSP.
If you look up thread, 0 pF is pretty darn flat for the MP-500, until the top octave rolls off, which should be an easy peasy EQ.
From the top, it's basically a flat rectangle.
Nothing exotic at all:
#plt.semilogx(freqout2h,ampout2h,color = 'g')
#plt.semilogx(freqout3h,ampout3h,color = 'r')
#plt.figtext(.17,.7,'- 2nd harmonic -',color = 'g')
#plt.figtext(.17,.67,'- 3rd harmonic -',color = 'r')
More like the middle is slightly recessed.
It mounts just fine in any standard headshell.
Comment out these two lines
Code:#plt.semilogx(freqout2h,ampout2h,color = 'g') #plt.semilogx(freqout3h,ampout3h,color = 'r')
And these two to dump the labels
Code:#plt.figtext(.17,.7,'- 2nd harmonic -',color = 'g') #plt.figtext(.17,.67,'- 3rd harmonic -',color = 'r')
Yes, but the UP-4 tonearm does not have any standard headshell. I am hesitant to whether the UP500 fits this version of arm.
