DS Audio 003 Equalizer – Optical signal processing in perfection

The DS Audio 003 equalizer was specially developed for the DS 003 optical cartridge system, forming a finely tuned duo for first-class analog sound reproduction. Unlike conventional phono preamplifiers, the 003 equalizer processes an optical signal rather than an inductive one – the result is outstandingly clear, low-distortion, and noise-free playback with exceptional dynamics and precision.

Featuring a completely redesigned circuit, high-quality components, and separate low and high impedance outputs, the DS 003 equalizer offers maximum flexibility and compatibility with a wide range of hi-fi systems. Its elegant, minimalist design blends seamlessly into any demanding audio environment.

The DS Audio DS-003 is an innovative photo-optical cartridge system from Japan that combines state-of-the-art technology with impressive sound quality. It consists of a cartridge and a dedicated phono EQ unit, which together deliver an exceptional listening experience.

The DS-003 system utilizes an optical principle in which light beams detect the movement of the stylus cantilever. This technology enables precise signal processing with minimal distortion. The cartridge features channel-separated photosensors and a new shading plate made of 99.9% pure beryllium, whose mass has been reduced by 50% compared to the previous generation. This results in an increased output voltage of 70 mV and an improved signal-to-noise ratio.

The cartridge’s housing is made of an A5052 aluminum alloy for maximum rigidity. A line-contact diamond is mounted on an aluminum cantilever, enabling precise tracking of the record grooves.

The DS-003 is characterized by exceptional clarity and dynamics. The combination of optical pickup and high-quality workmanship results in a virtually noise-free sound with impressive detail. Particularly noteworthy is the system’s ability to reproduce even the finest nuances in music, resulting in an immersive listening experience.

For audiophiles looking for a high-precision and innovative pickup system, the DS Audio DS-003 is an excellent choice.

The DS Audio DS-E3 is an innovative optical phono cartridge that offers an alternative technology to conventional magnetic phono pickup. Instead of magnets and coils, it uses an optical system with infrared LEDs and photodetectors to convert the vibrations of the record groove into electrical signals. A lightweight beryllium shading plate attached to an aluminum cantilever modulates the light according to the stylus’s movements, generating the audio signal.

The DS Audio DS-E3 offers an affordable entry into the world of optical cartridge technology. With its innovative signal processing and high-quality components, it enables precise and low-distortion playback of vinyl records. For audiophiles looking for an alternative to traditional MM or MC cartridges, the DS-E3 represents an interesting option.
