Denon DL 103 /110 MC large step up from Grado Black?

I am looking to up grade my turntable set-up which is currently a Denon DP 300f with a grado black cartridge. Would the Denon DL MC cartridges be a upgrade worth the extra money over the grado black?

Also, for the around $200, would I be better off getting the Music hall MMF 2.2 which is on sale for $299?

Thanks for your time

OK, here is my thought :) First off the cartridge question. The DL103 is probably not a great choice for that arm. The DL110 may be a little better. Both are a whole other level from the Grado Black. I have the DL103 on my Jelco SA-750D tonearm. I have a DL-160 which was the next step up from the DL-110. Very nice detailed cart. And I have a Grado Black, a nice warm cart. But the other 2 are more detailed. Now, to the tables, I don't think you would be stepping upwards going with the 2.2 from the Denon. More lateral moves.
