chamge from Nagaoka MP110, due to this high output MC cartridge I do not need to adjust my phono. Sound is bettee beyond my expectation, ethereal highs, crisp and clean notes overall, but not losing vinyl atmophere on jazz albums, I have tried the HANA SL before, at 1/4, 1/3 of the price, this cartridge is a great choice, not too much behind the HANA

高評価のレビューが多いので買ってみたのですが、いや、これはいいです!予想以上でした。
使いはじめは痩せてザラついた音でしたが、使い込むうちに芳醇で骨太で生々しい美音に変わってきて、
これで聴くと、聴き慣れたレコードが全く別物のように聴こえるのだから堪りません。
明るく華やかな音で気に入っていたオルトフォンの2Mredはおろか、これは別格だと思っていた
オーディオテクニカのATF7すら凌駕する、別次元の美音で、これを聴いてしまうともう他には戻れません。
良い買い物をしました♪
ちなみにシェルリード線は全てKSリマスターのものに替えてありますが、これも良いですよ。
音が激変しますので、騙されたと思って試してみる事をお勧めします。

今まで愛用していたものが針交換時期になり探していたら殆ど高額ばかりで色々探してたらこの製品にたどり着いた次第です。
聴いて満足、今までのものとは余り変わらないです。値段は数倍だったのに?オーディオ製品は高額で趣味としてはハードルが高く、メーカーも専門用語ばかり今回の取説はハッキリ行って分かりづらいです。誰にでも分かりやすくポイントを押さえて簡潔明瞭且つ図解化すれば良いのに本当にハードルが高く趣味人口が延びないで段々高額になって行くんですね。

ムービングコイル型カートリッジを駆動するためのアンプを真空管で増設するのが面倒くさくて(個人的に真空管にこだわりがあるものですから)、50年前に自作した真空管アンプを数年前に復活させたあと、ずうっとムービングマグネット型カートリッジを使用していました。それに、ムービングコイル型カートリッジは一般にとても高価です。しかし、このDenon DL-110は、高出力なのでそのままMMと差し替えられますし、値段も私にもなんとかなるものでした。それに、なによりも、これまで以上に繊細な音が聞こえる気がします。多分、高音域がぐんと広がって、可聴周波帯ではない空気の縦波を皮膚とかで感じているのかなと、勝手に解釈しています。とても気に入っていて(デザインも好きですし)、買ってよかったと思います。

Great cart!

Though there are certainly better available, for what I paid on Amazon for this cartridge, I have no complaints. It's got a really clean, detailed airy sound. I don't imagine that there's much better for the price. I will say that even though it's designed to work with a moving magnet type preamp, it works better with one that you can dial in the settings with. The Schiit model preamp I got to use with this thing seems like a very good match and was pretty inexpensive...

Great Product, Annoying Installation...
2023年7月31日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Frequency range is phenomenal. Sound stage is the best I have ever heard. Bass is solid without obscuring the vocals. Properly set up (not too much vertical force—1.8 grams recommended), this cartridge is a revelation. Despite what others have said, this works perfectly with standard (Sch. Mani level) MM settings. Maybe just a tad more amp volume required than CDs.
On the negative side, the instructions for this Japanese direct import version are exclusively in Japanese, though the English version is available from their website. (Hint: Don't try to find it on the website; do a search engine search using the terms "Denon DL-110 manual." It's the second one to come up in DuckDuckGo.)
The worst problem is mounting the darned thing in the head shell. What a nightmare! Through trial and error, I came up with the following procedure:
1) Insert one screw through one of the holes in the head shell and affix a nut to it. THEN,
2) Slide the cartridge up against the already inserted screw (make sure the stylus guard is in place) and while holding it in place, tighten down the cartridge to within about one millimeter of the head shell.
3) Slide the (annoyingly) slippery metal spacer between the cartridge and the head shell and place the second screw through the other hole in the head shell. This should keep everything reasonably secure while you add a nut to the second screw and tighten down both screws, leaving just enough play to adjust the overhang and angle of the cartridge relative to the platen.
Overhang (distance beyond center of spindle to stylus is 15 millimeters (.59 inches=~19/32 inches). You don't need to use the silly plastic "gauge" supplied. A finely marked ruler will work just fine. You also don't need a fancy gauge to set the alignment of the cartridge to the platen. Most rubber mats have either square indentations or circular stripes at the beginning, middle, and end positions of the record. The DL-110 is square, so it's just a matter of aligning the cartridge with the indents or stripes. Rule of thumb is to set the anti-skate adjustment the same as the stylus pressure (1.8).
GOOD LUCK!

At the time of purchase, I caught it at a lower price than the present. This is a really nice selection for a cartridge upgrade. If you can catch one of these on sale, jump on it.

This is a good cartridge. And I've put about 100 hours on it now and can finally give some feedback on this.
I have a vintage setup using a 1965 HH Scott LK-60 transistor amplifier and a 1962 Empire 298 Turntable with 980 Tonearm. Previously, I was using a Stanton 500.V3 for almost a decade and I was pretty satisfied with it's performance, but it always seemed to get some sibilance on newer titles, especially with the inner grooves. New stylus did not correct the problem and there were a few that adjusting the VTA/tonearm height did help with the issue, but either way I was finally at a point in my life where I can start experimenting with more expensive cartridges.
I'm not a fan of Audio Technica cartridges. I can't speak for their $100 and up range of cartridges, but 70s and 80s AT carts that were complimented with the turntables of the era always had a very flat and boring sound. They're very neutral, almost muffled sounding. I have heard some of their newer budget range carts and they have the same sound character. I debated Grado carts for a while, but was unwilling to guinea pig it because of their hum potential. The Shure M97XE "audiophile" cart sounded like a potential winner, but I was interested in something a little more exotic. So after much debate I decided to try out a DL-110.
Getting this cart was sort of a gamble as it's not exactly matched to my arm. I get about 8hz resonance with test records, but I don't have problems with warbly bass or annoying sweep sounds on slightly warped records. So, if you have an older Empire turntable and are curious if this will work with it, the answer is yes but recognize that it's not the ideal match.
The cart was very bright for the first 10-20 hours or so. It was also very good at masking moderate surface noise (think newer or well cared for vinyls), it did nothing for beat up records regarding surface noise. The bass response was a bit lower than what I was expecting but I am unsure if this is because of the tonearm match or because this is a sacrifice of the high-output with moving coils. Nevertheless, during this time I also noticed the cart was very unforgiving with anti-skate and azimuth. I assumed that this was because I was upgrading from spherical stylus to an elliptical. Something I've never done before. So, I got a test record, got it dialed in and was pretty satisfied beyond the brightness. The stereo imaging was a bit exaggerated during this time too and I found myself tweaking the balance dial quite often. It wasn't so bad with loudspeakers, but headphones would make it obvious and difficult to listen to.
This all may sound like bad things, but at some point I'd say anywhere around 20-40 hours (I can't give a specific number, sorry) I noticed that I didn't need to defeat the treble as much. Somewhere around this time I also ran the test record again, readjusted the antiskate and checked the tracking torture tests to make sure tracking weight good. Around the same time, a cold solder joint on a diode popped a fuse on my amp and also took out the one channel so I decided now was a good time to test it with my ~1965 (specific year unknown) Trio/Kenwood W45 Tube amp.
The DL-110 did not match very well at all with the tube amp. Bass response was so low that even almost maxed out sometimes it would feel that it wasn't enough and really annoyed me. The tube amp wasn't as loud as the scott transistor amp either so I couldn't really crank it up.
Fast forward a week later, got my transistors, got my fuse, wired it all back and much better! The sound has mellowed out that I can have the treble tone controls at the 12 oclock position and enjoy it. I did some recordings with the Stanton 500 and the DL-110 and even compared them to the CD version of the songs. The DL-110 is actually much more accurate in recreating the sound, but the Stanton 500 does colour things a bit to be a little brighter and to have a bit more boom on the bass. The DL-110 still is slightly weak in the bass, but I only have to bump it up slightly on the tone controls to get at a level I am comfortable with. Again, I can't say if this is from the DL-110 itself or the tonearm match. But, I do suspect it may be a little bit of both.
It doesn't mask the surface noise as well as it did in the beginning, but it still does a better job than the Stanton did. But, it really does excel at eliminating sibilance. I haven't heard shrilly "sssss" sounds from vocals or cymbal crashes since I've owned this cart and my wife heard this versus a low end AT cart and the Stanton and she likes how this has a wider sound to it. She thought the AT sounded flat and compressed sounding. But she also did notice that the bass response isn't as intense.
So overall, some of this may sound negative. But I am impressed. I became more impressed with it when I was able to see that the rips I did compared to the CD versions the Denon was very accurate in recreating that stuff. So, it's not going to artificially impress like the Stanton does, but sometimes I do enjoy that type of sound for some rock records so I will keep both but I've been exclusively using the Denon DL-110 ever since. I also noticed that after the break-in period it's not as picky about azimuth or anti-skating being compromises and this was something I was able to verify with a test record. It's also never been very picky about VTA/arm height. I tried experimenting with stacking an extra slipmat or two on the platter to see if the sound quality changed and I couldn't tell a difference. The Stanton was very picky about that with some newer heavy weight records; otherwise with the Stanton the sibilance was terrible.
If only the bass response was just a little higher then I couldn't complain so much. I did build a DIY SUT and experimenting with different capacitors and resistor loading values and couldn't get the bass dialed in where I wanted it with that.
