Denon DL-A110 110th Anniversary Moving Coil Cartridge

The DL-A110 features a perfect reproduction of the original Denon headshell, designed to meet the extremely high standards of the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK), in the Anniversary Edition silver graphite colour. Denon has been upgrading your expectations in the audio and video industry since 1910 and are proud to celebrate this great achievement with the DL-A110 and its partner products, the PMA-A110 and DCD-A110. In honour of this significant milestone, the DL-A110 comes with a commemorative carrying case adorned with a special inlay logo made of metal.

The DL-A110 features the legendary DL-103 phono cartridge that has been in constant production since 1964, using copper wire that is completely hand-spun in the Denon Audio Works Factory in Shirakawa, Japan. The DL-103 was originally developed following the high standard of Japan's national broadcasting studios’ specifications for vinyl record playback for wide band FM stereo broadcasting and became the official standard cartridge used those studios.

True to the original headshell developed in the 1960s for radio broadcast, the DL-A110 silver graphite headshell is an exact reproduction of the original design. Weighing only 6 grams, the lightweight DL-A110 headshell ensures the cartridge is held securely and perfectly aligned preventing any unwanted vibrations and leading to a detailed and clean audio reproduction with extended low frequency performance.
