Developed using Denon's state of the art moving coil manufacturing facility and know-how, the Denon DL-160 phono cartridge was designed to enable more people to enjoy the exquisite sound quality of Denon's low-output moving coil cartridges. To that end, the Denon DL-160 is a moving coil cartridge capable of producing a high output of 1.6mV which is equivalent to the output of moving magnet (MM) phono cartridges. The Denon DL-160 phono cartridge can thus be directly connected the MM phono input of your amplifier or receiver without the need for a step-up transformer, head amplifier or pre-preamp.

The moving coil cartridge provides a more sensitive transition from the physical record grooves to an electrical signal. By using a tapered cantilever design, the Denon DL-160 phono cartridge ensures a smooth accurate response while reducing the total tracking weight. Its elliptical stylus is designed for optimal performance, creating a vibrant sound stage and extremely realistic nuance. The Denon DL-160 phono cartridge will provide its fastidious owner with many precious listening hours of tracking and replaying your favorite music.

"BTW, the Denon 160 high output moving coil cartridge has surpassed my expectations. It out performs anything I've owned in the past, including Grado and Ortofon moving iron/magnets.Thanks again." - DH, Ocean View, DE, USA

New life for a classic cartridge

I really enjoy listening to albums with my Empire S2000E/III and this new JICO stylus. It gives me another experience from my normal Ortofon 2m blue cartridge. I get a better upper range definition and slightly less bass with the Empire/JICO setup, and a perfect alternative cartridge for my budget stereo!

Good job

A different brand of stylus cartridge was on my record player, which I discovered when I bought the record player brand of replacement needle, and it didn't fit. I sent photos, and they were able to identify the correct stylus. It works!

Exactly what I needed for my 70’s record player

Perfect fit - thanks

Excellent product

Have tried the replacements from the uk and all were sub standard. This one however coming in from America is a different matter. Sound quality is fantastic what a difference from British products. One drawback was delivery charges.

Right fit needle

The needle for our Emerson record player is great.
