Description

The DS-W3 Optical Cartridge incorporates DS Audio’s latest third-generation optical cartridge design, featuring independent LED and photo-detector systems for the left and right channels. This architecture increases output voltage, improves channel separation, and delivers a lower noise floor for enhanced musical clarity.

The cartridge combines a lightweight beryllium shading plate with a boron cantilever and line contact stylus, resulting in improved rigidity, tracking accuracy, and detailed vinyl reproduction.
