True Balanced, Dual Mono & Fully Discrete Audiophile Phono Stage

Balanced connections were exclusive to Pro-Ject's RS range of products until now.

The Phono Box DS3 B offers some of the high-end features of the Phono Box RS2 at an affordable price with astounding sonic quality. It features the 'True Balanced Connection', which, in combination with a Pro-Ject turntable with a 5-pin balanced output and 5P to XLR cable, can achieve a totally balanced connection, minimising noise and delivering a breathtaking analogue signal.

High-End Features and Limitless Loading Options

The Phono Box DS3 B employs a steel chassis enveloped by aluminium panels. This construction offers very high rigidity and isolation against interferences, which is essential for the new technology inside. Magnetic wooden side panels are available separately as add-ons. You can connect up to two turntables simultaneously – all parameters for each input are stored in the unit.

The Phono Box DS3 B perfectly matches to a wide variety of cartridges in real time. Load impedance can be set continuously via a potentiometer, a system invented by Pro-Ject Audio Systems, to adjust the impedance during playback and assess the impact of different loading options in real-time. No other manufacturer implements this feature as elegantly!

A Technical Deep Dive

The Phono Box DS3 B incorporates a true, fully balanced gain stage design. Whether you're using a single-ended RCA or balanced connection, the fully symmetrical gain stage can optimise the signal-to-noise ratios, feeding the fully passive and discrete RIAA equalisation stage with the cleanest signal to work its magic on.

Entirely split, passive equalisation allows for better impedance matching and lower deviation from the ideal RIAA curve. The Phono Box DS3 B also uses fully discrete audio circuitry. A discrete circuit is composed of disparate, individual electronic components, also called discrete components. Years of experience have proven that even the best Op-Amps do not come close to the neutral, natural, dynamic, and vivid presentations of discrete circuits.

    Excellent Though Quite Different Than I Expected
    I lover the old Disney film version of Sword in the Stone, so I finally got around to reading the book. I love the first where it is a whimsical children’s tale. I expected a different feel as it went on and it does, just not quite what I thought it would be. I found it amusing that it is written as an almost companion to Mallory. Take that for what you will, but it is quite enjoyable.

    A classic
    Format: Mass Market Paperback
    The Once and Future King is a saga I didn't want to end. There's enough in it to read it again, and again. The paperback squeezes 4 books into a volume you can carry in a purse, but unless you're traveling, I would recommend buying the books separately, with illustrations.

    The Once and Future TH White
    This book is in my lifetime top ten list. I've read it three times. Its pages are full of wisdom, humor, mysticism and hard life, an unbeatable combination. I call the story "a hopeful tragedy." For sure it is a high tragedy up to Greek levels and then some. And yet it's hopefulness lies in King Arthur's ability to continue deepening, learning, reaching for the goodness that he still believes is in every person. Someone said that The Once and Future King was the "Harry Potter" of its day. While I love the Harry Potter series, Rowling is no T.H. White. Her writing is a serviceable yeoman's march compared with White's kingly, profound, sometimes soaring performance. Harry changes very little as he grows up, while his supporting characters seem to stay exactly the same. Not so with Arthur. He changes before our very eyes, sometimes not for the better, as does Lancelot, Guinever and others. Though both tales are mythological, White's story feels real and gets us deep down in the bowels of our conscience, our morality and our fears. Eventually, it provokes compassion, allowing us to become more forgiving of ourselves and others. Not a bad way to live in the world. When you really learn something, you become a different person. You will really learn something from The Once and Future King, making T.H. the Once and Future White.

    Not what I expected
    Format: Mass Market Paperback
    I love stories about King Arthur and that time period in general. I really looked forward to this book because of the high ratings and my special interest in the subject. There was a lot to like about the book. The author was imaginative and, at times, the writing and characters came alive. I have to say sometimes it was kind of like riding in an old car over a road filled with pot holes -- I kept getting shook out of the story by either references to things not from that time period or the endless social commentary that seemed to be the real point in the author writing the story. By about halfway I was wondering why he didn't give up on the story and just write a philosophy book. He wasn't being subtle. I just wanted to get back to the action and felt like I was being preached at through the narrator and the characters. I also love historical details but be aware that this author tends to mention armor and then go on and on for a while to explain it down to the tiniest detail - same with jousting - the details of what the men are wearing as fashion - what is hanging in the room - and so on. As for the characters, it was sad to see Arthur diminish to being almost a shadow or joke near the end. The glorious king who was supposed to be so strong appeared to have no power to do anything and even allowed himself to have no voice in his own court (Gawaine did the talking). He didn't have any real presence after the very beginning though - not even as a tragic character until the very end. The author didn't make him feel like a real person in what is supposed to be his story. Arthur is the shadow between Lancelot and Gwen (or Jenny), Arthur is the go-between for the vengeful knights in his failing efforts to keep peace... He stands back hoping something will happen to stop the burning of his wife... he is not instigating but moderating action. He is even described as plain, shuffling... Not the grand King Arthur. Merlyn was a joke as well. His magic was more like a Disney cartoon special than anything resembling Arthurian legend and the constant references to things from the future (or Merlyn's past if you buy him living backwards) kept yanking me out of the "story world" and the other characters almost never reacted to it - as if it were normal. He leaves soon after Arthur becomes king and never comes back (you know the whole locked in the cave thing). The character most fleshed out is Lancelot. The author spends a great deal of time into his motives, feelings and actions through almost the entire book. If it weren't for the very beginning, you might be able to make an argument that more is written of Lancelot than of Arthur. Lancelot seems stronger, more driven and more clearly defined nearly at all times in the book. You know what he wants and how far he'll go to get it. In the end I am glad I read it, but it isn't my favorite Arthurian book and I doubt I'll read it again.
