ℹ Product Information
DS Audio’s E1 entry level optical cartridge, achieves a performance level well beyond expectation and price range. The sonic qualities and resolution far exceed what one normally associates with an elliptical stylus and aluminium cantilever. That's because it features the technological advances found in all DS optical cartridges. In terms of background noise level, transient speed, and tonal accuracy, the DS E1 is obviously ahead of conventional transducers at a similar or much higher price bracket.
The DS-E1 features precision machined aluminium casework, an element it shares in common with its illustrious stable-mates. Each DS-E1 is manufactured by hand in DS Audio’s facility in Sagamihara City.
