Now I understand why its legendary.


Enough have been written about the Denon DL 103 cartridge, but I for the first time (last week) listened to the 103 in my own system...and "impressed" is an understatement.
I thought the 103 sounds better than some cartridges I've had up to $1200. It doesn't beat my current reference but if I gave my reference a 10, the 103 would be a solid 8 and I paid less than $150 new shipped. Am I smokin' or is the 103 this good? or is it me not expecting anything for $150 and getting quality?

Agreed, I received my new DL-103 two weeks ago and I'm loving it. A wonderful cartridge at a killer price.
Again, agreed Scar972! Based on what I paid and the performance it provides, I am a happy camper. I have tried one of the 103's with the aluminium body tweak and got a taste of what to expect but that device cost 4 times as much. The 103 is a welcome addition to my cartridge stable.
