Denon DL 160


Just got a Denon DL 160. Sounds Awesome.

Does anyone know if you need to install the balancing plate that comes with it?

Also, the tracking force reads 1.6g + 0.3g, Does that mean you set it at 1.9?

Any help is greatly appreciated. I never used an MC before, but after hearing this one, I believe I have been converted.

What arm are you using with the Denon DL103. If it is on the light side like the VPI JMW9, the plate will be helpful, for heavier arms it is not necessary. I have a Denon DL160 as well - incredible cartridge. I was amazed at its different but still great presentation DL103R. A little less midrange magic than the DL103 but very quick and lively.

Enjoy!
