Want the best from your records? You need this!!!
Denon may not be the first name you think of when you need a new cartridge for your turntable, but it should be among the top choices. Denon's DL-103 series moving coil cartridges have been used by the NHK (Nippon Hoso Kyokai), Japan's main broadcasting company, for many years. That, alone, is a great recommendation.
The DL-110 is designed to work with virtually any good turntable. It's a high-output moving coil cartridge that can deliver enough output to work into standard phono inputs that accept a moving magnet cartridge. You still get all the benefits of the moving coil design, without the need for a step-up device.
Setting this cartridge up is pretty much what you should do with any cartridge. It's essential that the overhang be properly set; to this end, Denon include a gauge that will allow you to perform this adjustment. This minimizes distortion caused by the stylus riding in the grooves at an improper angle. As I said, this is an adjustment that should be performed with any cartridge. Vertical tracking angle is also an important adjustment; it has to do with the angle in which the stylus rides in the groove. If your turntable allows you to adjust this (not all do), you'll know when you have it right by the sound. If you don't have this adjustment, don't worry. It'll still sound great. The last adjustment is tracking force. This cartridge performs best at 1.8 to 2 grams.
The sound... it's extremely clear and detailed. You get solid bass, clean mids, and detailed highs. The elliptical stylus will deliver all the sound that the groove can yield. Listening to your favorite music with this cartridge will reveal detail in the music you may not have heard before. Most important, the sound isn't at all fatigueing. Once the cartridge breaks in, you won't want to turn it off! It's that good!
There is a downside here; unlike moving magnet cartridges, the stylus is not user replaceable. I recommend installing this cartridge with the stylus protector flipped down, to protect against accidental damage.
Suffice it to say, this cartridge comes very highly recommended. You won't be sorry.

Hear what your records are hiding in their grooves!
I ordered this cartridge as a spare. I currently have a DL-110 in use, and it's clearly one of the best sounding cartridges I've ever used. The only thing that topped it, but by a very small amount, was the now-discontinued DL-160, which I also have. The difference between the two is in the stylus geometry, but the difference in sound is slight.
The DL-110 is a moving coil cartridge. Traditionally, these cartridges have a much lower output than the more-common moving magnet types. The 110, however, is a high-output moving coil, which means it's fully compatible with standard magnetic phono inputs. No step-up device is needed. You still retain the major benefit of a moving coil cartridge, which is a more open, more detailed sound. If there is a downside, it's that the stylus is not user-replaceable. That said, it's important to keep the stylus guard flipped down when installing the cartridge. Denon also includes an alignment gauge, for optimizing the cartridge for proper tracking angle. Tracking force is 1.5 to 2.1 grams, with optimum at 1.8 grams.
Once this cartridge is installed, you're ready to hear some detailed, crisp, clear sound from your records. It's apparent right away, but will get better as the cartridge breaks in. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

A great CD recorder!
It replaces one that I wore out. I'm very pleased with the purchase.
