Phono Cartridge: Denon DL-110 or DL-160

I would like to upgrade the cartridge on my Technics SL-B3 turntable.  The Denon DL-110 and DL-160 both received excellent reviews boasting their superb quality to price ratios.  Both are available online for about the same price, although the DL-160 is the ostensibly higher-end offering.  Which would you recommend for my turntable?  I'm also open to other suggestions costing less than about $150.  Thanks for your help!

Subscribed!  Will watch for answers as I currently use a DL160 with great results.  But it's getting close to time for a replacement cartridge.  I'm wondering if I shouldn't just get the DL110 this time.

I ended up purchasing the DL-110.  It turns out that the similarly priced DL-160 cartridges are actually incorrect links to DL-110s.  Given the price difference and reports of near identical sound, I went with the cheaper option.  And it sounds great!
