Denon DL-103 Aluminum Body Cap

Details

The Aluminum Body Cap provides all of the well documented advantages of other aftermarket bodies available: increased bass presence, improved soundstage and imaging, combined with remarkable tone. 

However, all other aftermarket bodies require the stock plastic body to be carefully removed from the cartridge, and most rely on the 'nude' cartridge being friction fit in the body with no mechanical connection to the headshell. Some aftermarket bodies require adhesive potting and adding excessive mass.

The Aluminum Body Cap is not a modification: it is an accessory. The Cap is completely removable, transferable, and greatly reduces the risk of damage to the cartridge.  The Aluminum Body Cap securely bolts through the stock cartridge body and headshell, providing a firm, mechanical connection.

Installation

This unique Aluminum Body Cap requires no alterations to your cartridge. To install, simply insert the DL-103 into the precision machined Aluminium Body Cap. When bolted, the Cap provides a firm fit to the plastic body along the sides, front and top of the stock Denon DL-103. The cartridge mounting bolts lock both the plastic body and the Aluminum Body Cap to the headshell.
