I got to hear a DS Audio DS-W3 a couple of weeks ago. It was on the front end of a very impressive system that sounded darn good to me.
It's not new technology, but it was new to me, and is the latest in advancements for it.
Optical Phono Cartridges
OK, I have been out of the "newest item" game since I sold my shop years ago, but recently ran into the idea of optical phono cartridges. I do use an "optical out" on my surround system, but I don't remember seeing any discussions on the Forum of these items. If I missed the posts, I apologize for bringing up an item that has been discussed. However, I would appreciate either a pointer to those discussions on the Forum, or to open this up to comments.
Cheers!
