Review Summary

I'm kind of stumped. I've installed this beautiful headshell/cart on my Dp 400 (My first new TT in 30 years) this time opting not to use any spacers and/or extra mat to compensate for possible VTA related issues (which I've done with the DL 110, 110r and 103 in the past) but wow! After proper setup with a test Lp and ignoring the obvious tail up situation I went for a test listen and I have no clue why this sounds so awesome. It's driving me crazy while entertaining me to no end! Extremely recommended! Thank you Denon!!

While the sound quality is tremendous on this high value cartridge, there is no overhang adjustment possible on the headshell. This is clearly an issue if you want proper setup.

The best of the DL-103 cartridges. I'v many since 1975. Always wind up back in the same place. Just like the Quad ESL-57 no match was ever found.

I just put the DL-A110 on my DP-400 turntable and it sounds awesome! I?m upgrading from the Ortophone 2M Blue. The DL -A110 digs deeper the lower notes come through cleaner and the sound stage is richer. I was concern the table would be nosy with the power amp but nope, no noise. My TT is plugged into a Pro-Jet Tubebox S2 -> Rotel A12 and out to Martin Logans 35XTI and Rel Sub.

The DL-A110 is my favorite cartridge in my collection which includes some $1k plus carts. I like it so much, I bought another one.
