Denon cartridges - Compatibility

deanw711 · 1st June 2006, 03:38 PM

I was wondering.....
Can anyone direct me to some compatibility data on Denon cartridges. I have a DL-300, and need to know which turntables/tonearms it will work with.
I have only one specific issue so far: Some guy wants to know if it'll work with his DP 47f. (I've emailed him to send me the info on the tonearm)
I'm in the proximity to my wits' end, here. I've googled my brains out, I've struck out with Denon and my local Denon dealer. My hair is taking a beating.

SOMEBODY SAVE ME !
Thanks, guys - Dean

Hi,

Simple answer to your question is yes it will work with the DL47F.

Getting information on Denon cartridges I've never found difficult.

Most of the MC's will work with medium / high mass arms,
though some prefer the high mass option, usually obvious which.

The DL300 should work well in most arms, except the really heavy.
Saying it will work well isn't the same as sounding good.
What I mean is physical compatibility between arm mass and cartridge.

Thanks again, sreten

Possibly I shouldn't have had so much trouble with this issue, but believe me, Denon and my Denon dealer struck out on the question.
