In Reply to: Re: Denon DL 103 works very will with a medium mass (12 grams) tone arm on my Technics 1200 Mk II... posted by Davy on April 24, 2007 at 17:11:11:
It is my understanding that after the conical stylus in the Denon DL-103 has been replaced with the Sound Smith line contact the required VTF is reduced by about a gram.My Shelter 501 MK II is a true low compliance cartridge, lower than the Denon DL-103, and it requires only 1.6-1.7 grams VTF.
I really don't think there is a direct linear relationship between stylus force requirement and compliance, per se but all other things being equal, there seems to be a relationship between stylus force requirements and stylus profile.
Yes, the Denon 304 is indeed a high compliance cartridge and would likely work well with say a 7-9 gram effective mass tonearm which there are many out there.
That said, many people here find that they can get very good results well outside the “accepted†guidelines for compliance and tonearm mass.
JMHO, YMMV and WTFDIK?
Nobody here but us chickens.
