For any Low Compliance cartridges such your Denon 103 you need superheavy tonearms like Fidelity-Research FR-64s (30g effective mass) or related high mass tonearm.
You Carbon is a total mismatch for this cartridge.
Why do you need Denon, because of the price ?
There are many amazing cartridges for your tonearm (in $300-400 range) and most of them are MM (much better than your modern Ortofon).
