Report on this from "Hifi-Museum":
< li>c279c1ef3fe7ca1956b057d2e95af71b DL-305:
The DL-305 is an improved version of the previous top model DL-303. It was achieved by reducing the weight of the needle carrier and increasing its rigidity. A thin-walled tube made of amorphous boron is now used as the needle carrier. At the back of the needle carrier sits a cross-shaped armature, as with the MMC-l, but since it is an MC system, the coils are wound on it (picture below).
