Denon has a strong reputation for its direct-drive designs of the past, and the DP-3000NE is their current flagship premium direct-drive turntable. Featuring a carefully designed S-shaped tonearm with optimized tracking, this newly improved Denon arm is equipped with cartridge weight adjustment, anti-skating compensation (0-3 g), and a newly developed arm height adjustment ring (0-9 mm).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The turntable’s sturdy and surprisingly heavy construction, weighing in at 18.5 kg, combined with extra large height-adjustable damping feet, provides a very rigid and low-resonance foundation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The DP-3000NE incorporates the new SV-PWM-controlled Quartz-Locked motor system that guarantees an extremely accurate RPM with less than 0.06 % WRMS. A soft touch button starts platter rotation, and a second soft touch button selects between 33 1\/3 rpm and 45 rpm speeds.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to the Denon website, the turntable even supports 78 rpm records. At first, I thought it may have been a mistake because the speed button is labeled 33\/45, but when reading the manual, I discovered that you can select 78 rpm by pressing the Speed button while also pressing the START\/STOP button. After that, both speed lights turn on to indicate the selected 78 rpm speed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The turntable comes complete with a nice interlink and earth cable. The interlink provides a smooth and non-aggressive sound. But the turntable is well worth spending extra on interlinks. For instance, I obtained better definition, transparency, refinement, and dynamic impact with the Driade Flow Link Reference 808.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

More accessories: 45 RPM adapter\/record weight, counterweight with extra add-on weight, aluminum headshell, cartridge adjustment gauge, screwdriver, headshell screws, and spacers<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks to the strong motor, the platter is at the target speed within half a turn (under 1 second for 33 rpm), and a nice extra advantage of Direct Drive is that there is no belt to wear out and no parts to replace. I am particularly sensitive to speed variations, but the speed was always 100% stable with this turntable. Lastly, but not unimportantly, the 100% seamless dark ebony natural wood veneer adds a very classy touch, and a nice crystal-clear dust cover completes the package.<\/p>\n

Rigid versus damped construction<\/h3>\n

While handling the DP-3000NE’s tonearm to attach the headshell, I noticed that the arm has considerable play in all directions. Even when fitted very securely, the headshell can rotate around its axis (Azimuth) by quite a large amount, and it does not have a defined mid-position. Furthermore, the arm bearing also has considerable play both front-to-aft and sideways. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that I could wobble the counterweight section up and down by rotating the headshell around its axis. That’s when my initial infatuation started to dwindle, and suspicion arose that my sample might not be optimal. Not wanting to reach the wrong conclusions, I held off on listening to the turntable and sent an email to Denon.<\/p>\n

I’m glad I asked, as it turns out that all this is by design.<\/p>\n

Senior Sound Engineer Rainer Finck provided the following explanation:<\/p>\n

“There are two basic philosophies. Make everything as rigid as possible or make it loose and damp it. The Denon tonearm may look conventional, but it has a unique geometry, and it looks rigid when it\u2019s not. The so-called Unipivot (single point bearing) tonearms have play in all directions and are usually damped by a silicon oil bath. With the Denon tonearm, \u00a0the damping is defined by special materials.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

In addition to providing Rainer’s initial response, Denon relayed my concerns to Ryo Okazeri, Denon’s turntable engineer in Japan, who kindly responded:<\/p>\n

“It is understandable that audio intellectuals like a tonearm to be rigid. However, we made particular considerations concerning the arm’s physical characteristics for the Denon tonearm. In particular, we aimed to remove the typical peaks and dips in the frequency response of the tonearm pipe that are caused by resonance and mechanical rattling”.<\/em><\/p>\n

To illustrate that point, he provided two graphical responses. Below are the measurements of a rigid-construction tonearm, similar in design to the familiar Technics tonearm. Note the resonance peaks circled in red.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“These peaks and dips became an issue for the NHK broadcaster; thus, Denon studied this problem and came up with the loosely coupled and dampened construction as a resolution.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Below are the measurements of the DP3000NE tonearm; note the flatter response.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mr. Ryo Okazeri continued to explain that the play that I noticed when handling the tonearm is a direct result of how it was designed. The tonearm pipe is not fixed to the main body. Rather, it is fixed through a plate spring and damper.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The same principle applies to the pivot bearing, which is not mounted rigidly but installed in a cushioned manner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“The Denon tonearm does not appear rugged compared to other makers’ tonearms, and the concept is different from the general conceptions, but it makes a lot of sense from an engineering viewpoint.”<\/em><\/p>\n

After reading the above feedback, it became clear that damping is a major theme in this turntable’s design, and it’s not just in the tonearm, but it is everywhere in the turntable. From the large damping feet to the damped platter and the specially constructed tonearm, and even inside the headshell, the main objective was to get rid of bad resonances.<\/p>\n

Next: DL-A110, DL-103R, and DL-103, Cartridges<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cartridges<\/h3>\n

The turntable was delivered complete with a Denon DL-A110 “Limited 110th Anniversary Edition MC cartridge”, which is actually not just a cartridge but a combination of a headshell and cartridge. Confusingly, Denon also has a DL-110 Cartridge (note the missing A) sans headshell, but the DL-A110 headshell+cartridge combo has nothing to do with that cartridge model. Instead, the DL-A110 refers to an exact reproduction of a classic headshell developed for radio broadcast in the 1960s, and the reissue celebrates Denon’s 110th anniversary. The DL-A110 features the legendary DL-103 phono cartridge, the same as the standard edition DL-103.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DLA-A110 headshell case with DL-103 cartridge and accessories<\/em><\/p>\n

As with all Denon cartridges, it uses copper wire that is handspun in the Denon Audio Works Factory in Shirakawa, Japan. Although marketed as featuring an “Exclusive graphite headshell”, the headshell is made from plastic just like the original and finished in a graphite color. The material was chosen as a better fit for the intended damping characteristic.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The DLA-A110 was designed following the specs of the original cartridge with headshell as specified by NHK \u2013 Japan Broadcasting Corporation. As a result, the DL-A110 headshell is shorter than standard and must be used with the supplied extra SME bayonet extension to achieve the required length to achieve the desired cartridge alignment with standard arms.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As I was personally curious to hear the differences between the DL-103 and DL-103R, I purchased the latter, and to stick with the Denon theme, I borrowed a great classic from a friend, the no longer available, very low-output DL304 MkII.<\/p>\n

Finally, I also included two Audio Technica cartridges: the AT-OC9XML and AT-OC9XSL.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Shown below is the spindle inside the bearing, and around it, the Direct Drive motor<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Headshells<\/h3>\n

The headshell supplied with the DP-3000NE is made of aluminum without \u201cside wings\u201d to allow for the universal fit of cartridges other than DL-103. It features a rubber layer on the inside, which, when combined with a mounted cartridge, makes for a sandwich construction as another measure to dampen unwanted resonances.\u00a0 In addition to the standard Denon headshell, I also used three Audio Technica AT-HS10 headshells to have all cartridges pre-mounted for a quick and easy comparison.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

System Context<\/h3>\n

The turntable will be reviewed in the context of my main system<\/a>, which consists of a CH Precision L1 preamp<\/a>, A1.5 power amp<\/a>, Lejonklou Entity Phono Stage<\/a>, and Magico S1 MkII speakers. Wiring consists of Driade Flow Link Reference 808<\/a> interlinks between the phono amp and preamp and between the preamp and power amp and Jorma Unity<\/a> speaker cables.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next: Listening<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Listening<\/h3>\n

Although I mentioned postponing listening until receiving feedback from Denon, I did start listening shortly after sending the email, using the DLA-110 headshell (with DL-103 cartridge).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What I heard utterly defied my beliefs!<\/p>\n

Here I was, expecting a sound devoid of energy and substance, and, considering the conical stylus and tonearm’s play and imprecisely defined Azimuth, with much more distortion than I am accustomed to.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You see, my normal analog diet consists of line-contact, Shibata, or Micro-Ridge cartridges at least double as expensive as the entire DP-3000NE turntable + cartridge, mounted in a tonearm that costs two DP-3000NE’s, with turntables that cost four DP-3000NE’s, combined with phono stages… well, you get the idea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yet, I was presented with a full-bodied, amazingly engaging, toe-tapping sound with a natural, warm midrange and remarkably smooth treble. Sure, the resolution and treble airiness were not on par with what the aforementioned more exotic stylus shapes can reproduce, but the combination has a royal soundstage with great presence, and even when listening to vocals with hard “S-ses”, there was no harshness whatsoever. This, I totally did not expect.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All this time, I thought a conical stylus would inevitably lead to distortion and sibilance. I should add that this assumption was not based on prejudice alone. I reviewed a DL-103 over 10 years ago, but from what I can reconstruct now, the turntables I used back then must have formed an unfortunate marriage with this cartridge. Hearing it now, as it is supposed to sound, I can understand the unrelenting universal praise that it receives. For its modest price, it does indeed perform absolutely admirably.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The dust cover can easily be removed by simply sliding it in or out of its spring-loaded clamps<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now, I wondered, how much of this inviting sonic character was attributable to the DLA-110? To answer that question, I removed the DL-103 cartridge from the Anniversary headshell and mounted it in the turntable’s standard aluminum headshell.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Oh, boy, that difference was not subtle! The anniversary headshell has an undeniable charm with its richer, warmer, and more laidback overall presentation, while the aluminum headshell provides a relatively cooler and cleaner sound but with a crisper overall delivery and higher apparent resolution. Musically speaking, I can imagine listeners opting for the anniversary headshell for its “stereotypical” warm vinyl delivery. However, from an audiophile standpoint, the aluminum headshell provided a more modern and neutral sound with higher precision.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Since the DP-3000NE Direct Drive turntable reminded me of that old classic Direct Drive DJ turntable we all know, I asked a friend to bring his Technics SL-1200 MkII for a comparison.<\/p>\n

It’s funny when you set up an SL1200 next to the Denon DP-3000NE. In my mind, the two were roughly the same size, but as it turns out, the Denon is considerably wider, deeper, and heavier. Also, while I always remembered the Technics’ feet as substantial, the Denon’s massive feet make them look almost diminutive. As I mentioned at the start, the Denon’s construction is impressive, and after seeing it next to the comparatively small Technics, that feeling is only further substantiated. By the way, the SL1200 was also outfitted with a DL-103, which made for an easy comparison.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

These two turntables use what may superficially appear as similar techniques, but it took only a moment of listening to realize all the measures Denon took to elevate the turntable’s sound have paid off. The Technics remains a great DJ machine, and it still pumps out house and other electro with immense incisiveness and dynamic attack. But compared to the Denon, it is also quite cool, “technical”, and tonally gray. While it is technically proficient and a little more incisive and spritely than the Denon, it does not have the best lyrical qualities. Emotionally, it just doesn’t move me. Depending on your musical diet, the SL1200 can still be great, but the Denon is considerably better versed in relaying various musical styles. For example, Soul can sound flat and matter-of-fact on the Technics, while the Denon adds juice and a lyrical element to make for deeper emotional involvement.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Since both turntables use the SME headshell standard, it was easy to give the Technics headshell a go in the Denon turntable while always adjusting the VTF. The VTA was the same for both cartridges, enabling a quick swap. Upon hearing the Technics headshell (a standard aluminum type), I realized that the Denon turntable had now attained some of the incisiveness and spriteliness that I attributed to the SL1200. It still had a richer, more relaxed, more saturated, and friendlier sound, but now with more bite and attack, which I found to be welcome. This, in turn, led to my trying the DL-103 cartridge with an Audio Technica AT-HS10 headshell, which turned out to sound very similar to the Technics headshell.<\/p>\n

Between the DP-3000NE’s standard headshell (with its rubber intermediate layer) and the Audio Technica or Technics (with direct hard coupling), it comes down to taste, not quality. The Denon headshell is ideal if you prefer liquidity with a sweeter, smoother, more inoffensive, and more relaxed presentation. If you prefer precision, with a more incisive sound and more attack, and you don’t mind the extra bite, the AT will be a better choice. The beauty is that a headshell swap is as easy as pie.<\/p>\n

AT-OC9XML and AT-OC9XSL<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, I had also prepared two newly purchased Audio Technica cartridges that I wanted to compare: the AT-OC9XML (MicroLinear) and AT-OC9XSL (Special Fine Line). Without going into the sonic differences between the two (for another review), I should add that these cartridges dig deeper into the vinyl grooves to unveil significantly finer details. Especially with second-hand and worn records, this can make a very large difference where the DL-103 can sound flat and dull, and the AT’s remain lively and expressive as they access still intact information deeper in the grooves.<\/p>\n

The DP-3000NE turntable has proven to be capable of supporting such higher-end stylus types despite my initial reservations regarding its unusual tonearm behavior. I tried my best to get the Azimuth as good as possible, but with the headshell and tonearm play, I can’t be sure it was perfect enough for these higher-precision stylus shapes. As a side note, off-axis Azimuth can, among other things, lead to a leaner bass. In any case, the Fine Line and MicroRidge stylii certainly provide a much more nuanced and extrapolated sound with individual sounds placed at various depths within the soundstage where they were previously more lumped together, much more differentiation in hi-hats, and more extended, airier treble.<\/p>\n

However, I soon started missing the DL-103’s warmth and fullness. This turntable obviously has an appealing and effortlessly musical synergy with the DL-103 that is not there with either of the AT cartridges. The latter are clearly superior from an audiophile standpoint, but musically speaking, I found them lean, cool, and tonally flat, and with this turntable, I much preferred the Denon cartridge.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, with the DL-103, one need not worry about Azimuth, and even the exact VTA seems trivial. The only factor that really matters is the VTF, which is the tracking force. Use less than specified for the cartridge, and the sound becomes airier and more free-flowing; use more, and the sound becomes fuller and more relaxed but also less dynamic. Somewhere in between is the ideal. For me, that ideal was the standard 2.5-gram setting.<\/p>\n

Next: DL-103R, DL-304, and Conclusion<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

DL-103R<\/h3>\n

The DL-103R is a recent higher-end version of the DL-103. The basis is the same: same body, stylus, cantilever, and suspension, but different copper for its coils and slightly different specs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DL-103R and DL-103<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The main difference between the two cartridges is that the R version’s coils are wound from 6 Nines pure copper wire instead of normal copper wire. To mark the difference visually, the R version has a gold vertical line on its front, gold lettering on its sides and bottom, and a gold-colored polepiece.<\/p>\n

Denon markets the R version as their Flagship cartridge, which, given its conical stylus shape, seems to be at odds with the normally accepted stylus shape ranking<\/a>. Denon also offers the DL-301 MkII, which has a technically more advanced Elliptical stylus. Yet, this cartridge is positioned (marketing-wise and price-wise) underneath the DL-103R. On the other hand, there is no denying the superb musicality obtained with the DL-103. So, how does the DL-103R compare?<\/p>\n

The DL-103 has an inherently full-bodied and energetic delivery, and while I found it remarkably smooth, it can be a little direct or even a little edgy under certain circumstances, for instance, when used in the Technics or AT headshells and with the headshell connector collar screwed on very tightly.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, given that the stylus and cantilever are the same, the DL-103R sounds considerably more polished and refined. I wouldn’t say it unveils more details or has inherently higher resolution, but its treble is unquestionably airier and more liquid. In addition, its entire presentation is smoother and more sophisticated. Along with its newfound level of naturalness, it also loses a portion of the “raw directness” that I feel makes the standard 103 so appealing. The 103R is just as accurate but carries less weight in the bass and is dynamically more polite. Overall, I’m hard-pressed to pronounce a winner between these two cartridges. Ultimately, it depends on what one desires. In any event, despite their relatively low compliance, they both work really well with the DP-3000NE.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Detail versus musicality<\/h3>\n

Naturally, we want it all, or at least I certainly do. Ideally, the music should be detailed, dynamic, revealing, and neutral but also natural, rhythmically engaging, emotionally moving, and the list goes on. But oftentimes, especially within a given cost constraint, one cannot have it all, and one has to choose. In this case, it often comes down to resolution versus musicality. And in that case, one has to wonder if the extra resolution is worth the extra expense and effort. Does hearing deeper into the mix also translate to increased musical pleasure?<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the DP-3000NE, when combined with the DL-103, has a way of consistently communicating the fun and energy of the recording in a way that seems to defy the audiophile requirements. That is, until you start comparing more exotic cartridges with more advanced stylus shapes. But so long as you do not make A-B comparisons and your vinyl is of good quality, you do not have the feeling of missing anything.<\/p>\n

One thing to note is that\u00a0a conical stylus is at a disadvantage when you play a lot of second-hand worn vinyl, whereas more exotic laser-cut stylus shapes can reach deeper into the still unscathed regions of the grooves.<\/p>\n

The turntable always sounds well-balanced and pleasant, but with certain records, especially 45 RPM 12-inch versions (where the information in the grooves is more spread out), its performance scales up to a level that you simply do not expect. Over the last few weeks, I’ve encountered many records that sounded utterly infectious<\/em>. In these cases, more high-end turntables could outperform it in certain aspects, but never in terms of communication and all-out fun.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DL-304<\/h3>\n

The DL-304 is an old favorite that is no longer available, with an extra tiny 07 x 0.1mm “Special Elliptical” tip and an incredibly low output of only 0.18 mV. It has superb refinement and low-level resolution, almost on par with a MicroRidge or Fine Line, but it is very critical to set up and does not work quite as synergistically with just any tonearm or turntable.<\/p>\n

But again, I was in for a surprise. Given my earlier experiences with the AT cartridges and knowing the DL-304 is quite finicky, I did not expect the DL-304 to perform well with this turntable and arm. But here I was, again, with my prejudices, being treated to a sound that belied my expectations. Not only did the DL-304 provide almost the levels of resolution and refinement as the AT cartridges did, but it did so while upholding what I am now beginning to consider a Denon house sound: a certain “whole-ness” that binds all the musical composition’s individual components together into a cohesive and highly pleasing musical performance. The turntable is very neutral but not clinical; it has an appealing naturalness to it, and the same goes for the three Denon cartridges. The sound is neutral yet also very natural and innately musical.<\/p>\n

And once again, the unusual arm construction just seems to work, not necessarily by unveiling the utmost in resolution and precision but by consistently providing the essence of what is in the recordings in an unfailingly upbeat, lyrical, and energetic manner.<\/p>\n

Compared to the DL-103 and DL-103R, however, the DL-304 has a very low output and a gentler, more sophisticated, and more nurtured sound. It is considerably more refined and certainly musically pleasing but not as robust, dynamic, or rhythmically engaging as the 103s.<\/p>\n

In a nutshell, the DL-304 is contemplative, intimate, and caressing, whereas the DL-103R and especially the DL-103 are ballsy, outgoing and festive.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n

The Denon DP-3000NE impresses right from the moment you unpack it and set it up. Its solid build and beautiful seamless dark ebony natural wood veneer make many other turntables in this price range look rudimentary. Its arm has an unusual construction, aiming to use loose coupling to damp resonances rather than being as stiff as possible. This takes some getting used to, but as I found, it is very easy to obtain excellent results, certainly when using the DL-A110 or DL-103(R).<\/p>\n

The Denon DP-3000NE does not behave like a magnifying glass on your music collection, rather, it is a music machine first and foremost. It allows the user to extract the essence of anything they play, be it hard electro, house, R&B, Jazz, Soul, or more traditional music, with minimal effort and present it in an always pleasant and engaging manner.<\/p>\n

The DL-103 and DL-103R are almost as much a surprise to me as the DP-3000NE because they never fail to go right for the core of the music and present it with confidence and gusto, and on top, they manage to sound smooth and fluid, despite possessing “just” a conical stylus.<\/p>\n

The Denon DP-3000NE and DL-103, DL-103R, or DL-A110 work beautifully synergistically to provide a big, upbeat, confident, well-saturated, dynamic, and always toe-tappingly rhythmic sound.<\/p>\n
