World beating optical cartridge technology

The DS-W2 is the successor to our DS-W1 optical cartridge
design, which was awarded the title of world’s best phono cartridge by two
major audio magazines in Germany: Stereo and Audio. This praise helped to establish
the popularity of our unique technology, setting a high standard and paving the
way for further development. The extensive advancements and refinements of the
DS-W2 design have resulted in performance that is far in excess of the already
impressive DS-W1.

Boron Cantilever with Micro-ridge stylus

The DS-W2 is equipped with a boron cantilever and
Micro-Ridge stylus representing a further upgrade from the Shibata stylus used
on its predecessor DS-W1. This combination precisely traces the record groove
and yields the utmost quality of sonic reproduction. A hand-crafted, “Natural
Rose quartz” LED indicator adds an eye-catching detail to this unique piece of
audio technology.
