Experience with DS Audio Optical Cartridge Systems


I am considering moving over to optical cartridge system.  Wondering if any of y'all have had experiences you can share from using the system.

Thanks for your comment. You have to decide whether you are not entitled to an opinion on the how the DS Audio system sounds as you haven’t heard it. As we have discussed before I only comment on equipment I have heard, while your approach on comments is different.

You might note the title of the OP, and reflect on whether you have any:

jperry - I too generally refrain from offering an opinion unless I’ve heard the equipment being discussed. In the case of the DS Audio system I do have experience with it and definitely stand by my opinion of the quality of its sound. I have 7 turntables set up at the moment in 3 different systems, two with DS-003 cartridges. In terms of the life-like quality of the sound, I’ve simply not heard anything better. 

Anyone do a direct comparison between the DS cartridges and the SoundSmith Strain Gauge?
