Alright, time for further experimentation, :) will update once i set up things properly. However since the cantilever is different i do not think i will be getting the same warmth the original cartridge is known for.
Denon Dl 103 cartridge soundsmith question
Hi Everyone,
Recently i acquired a mint Denon DL 103, soundsmith ruby OCL retip. As this is my second cartridge, the earlier one i had was Shure M91ED MM cartridge. As i am quiet new to Turntable and do not have much experience about it, your inputs would help me.
I have never listened the original DL 103, i would like to know if the retip still has the warmth that original cartridge is known for(I could not sense any compared to my shure)? Compared to the shure the only difference i noticed is that the Denon has more top end and is more resolved. But at the same time, it seems to have lost the depth, the sound is not 3D anymore. The cartridge is new, so I am thinking maybe after breakin this issue would be resolved or not.
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Rakesh.
