ℹ Product Information
Introducing the Denon - DL-301 II Moving Coil Phono Cartridge
Experience the ultimate audiophile journey with the majestic Denon - DL-301 II Moving Coil Phono Cartridge. Crafted with classic Japanese precision at Shirakawa Audio Works, this cartridge showcases meticulous design and superior technology, all housed in a sleek metal body.
Setting it apart from its predecessor, the original DL 301, the DL 301 II features an ingeniously engineered aluminum alloy body. This body not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also reduces the weight of the cantilever, the heart of the cartridge vibration system, without compromising its rigidity.
With the addition of the powerful, tapered aluminum alloy cantilever borrowed from the discontinued DL 303 model, the DL 301 II breathes new life into your records. It offers heightened resolution, a surge of energy, and an impressively tight low-frequency response.
Not only is the DL 301 II historically significant as the world's first cartridge capable of four-screw mounting on the headshell, but its aluminum alloy body is also finely tuned to eliminate undesirable resonance and ensure pristine audio clarity.
