Uses a third-generation optical cartridge mechanism
The DS-E3 uses a third-generation optical cartridge mechanism, the same design as our other products.
The DS-E3 achieves an overwhelmingly low price while inheriting the merits of the third-generation mechanism, such as higher output due to independent LED and PD, improved channel separation, and the use of a beryllium light shielding plate.
Aluminum cantilever with elliptical needle
The cantilever is made of aluminum and the needle tip is a solid elliptical needle. While adopting the third-generation optical cartridge mechanism, the channel separation is set 1db lower to improve mass production efficiency.
New Amplification and Power Supply Circuits
In the DS-E3 equalizer, the amplification circuit has been made symmetrical, and the voltage supplied to the cartridge has been stabilized to achieve a clearer and faster sound.
Miniaturization is achieved by using an operational amplifier
The DS-E3 equalizer uses an operational amplifier as the amplifying element to minimize the signal path, thereby greatly reducing the number of components and achieving a smaller size. As a result, the DS-E3 equalizer is about 1/3 the size of the DS003 equalizer.

” The DS-E3 gave a superb performance, and I highly recommend it.” HI-FI+

” The E3 phono pickup is a reference-caliber component. The areas in which it excels, even when it is not by much, it does so at a level that advances the state of the art, while there is no area in which it is less than very good to excellent. If you’re in the market for a new phono pickup anywhere near the price of this combination, I urge an audition. I‘ve been using it almost nonstop for over four months now and have not tired of it. It is a great cartridge and now one of my principal references for what is possible in the ever-developing and renewing world of analog and vinyl.” Paul Seydor / Tracking Angle


” If you’ve been waiting to try a DS cartridge, wait no longer. Outstanding Product.” Ken Kessler / HI-FI NEWS (Oct 2024)
” Truly beyond price. The DS-E3 is a revolutionary technology in historic record reproduction.”
