Denon DL-305 Vintage MC Phono Cartridge Boron Cantilever Elliptical Japan
Introduced around 1980 and made in Japan, the Denon DL-305 was a top-of-the-range model in Denon’s DL-300 series of low-output moving-coil phono cartridges.
It features an extremely lightweight amorphous-boron pipe cantilever with a wall thickness of only 0.025mm. Its moving assembly has an effective mass of approximately 0.168mg, helping the cartridge achieve an extended frequency response of 20Hz–75kHz.
The DL-305 uses Denon’s one-point suspension system, cross-shaped armature, samarium-cobalt magnet and double damping. Its original stylus is a nude solid-diamond special elliptical type cut from a 0.05 × 0.1mm square diamond rod.
As a low-output MC cartridge, it requires a compatible moving-coil phono input or step-up transformer.
A rare flagship Denon moving-coil cartridge distinguished by its ultra-light amorphous-boron cantilever, fine elliptical diamond and unusually wide 75kHz frequency response.
