    It will have the same resistive effect.

    I can only think of one maker that damps the arm/headshell actually at the front and that's Townshend. SME and Mission arms use a trough & paddle just ahead of the arm pivot point. Decca, Mayware and others have a fluid well within the arm pivot top.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I don't think the DL301 suspension is as stiff as that of the DL103 so I'd go with the stock headshell for starters and see where it takes you.

    I ran a SA-750D with a DL301-MKII for a short while, simply because that was the only cartridge I had spare on hand. I used both the stock Jelco headshell and also a Audio Tecnica AT-LH13 headshell. The Audio Technica headshell worked much better.

    You will not need to use the heavy counterweight. I was suprised that the DL301-MKII worked surprisingly well in the SA-750D.

    I used a 103 on my Garrard 401 i a 750D. I used the Sumiko headshell and it tracked no bother. Whether it will suit your Rock though is a different matter.

    You will not need any extra headshell weight. The 301 mk2 is quite a different beast to a 103.
    Main system : VPI Scout 1.1 / JMW 9T / 2M Black / Croft 25R+ / Croft 7 / Heco Celan GT 702

    Second System : Goldring Lenco GL75 / AT95EX / Pioneer SX590 / Spendor SP2

    Imho you can run Denon 103 but this cart does not behave great in the Jelco. To me it seems like weight wise all is matching but i think some internal construction is not completely on pair to behave like real heavy arm Like Fidelity Research type ones. I really like Jelco with Denon 207,301 and 304 also Zyx works very good. I think jelco might be very solid performer for all carts that require medium mass to light heavy arm. I used ortofon 9000 shell for weight and ADC magnesium one when i needed to reduce mass. I did not like damping fluid at all and got rid of it quickly. I think this arm is good till Reed /Triplanar/sme level. I have 10.5 version of this arm .

    Do you think the 12" Jelco (750L) could work better with the DL-103 (heavier, effective mass is 26g).
