Denon DP-3000NE Premium Direct Drive Turntable

Introducing the DP-3000NE 

This Premium Direct Drive Turntable is stunning in Dark Ebony
This is the flagship premium direct-drive turntable from Denon®. Solid construction and an S-shaped tonearm deliver detailed, resonance-free music. And the dark ebony natural wood veneer makes it a beautiful addition to your space.

High-accuracy playback

All design aspects, from the S-shaped tonearm to the direct drive motor, deliver accurate playback. 

Solid construction

Solid construction and sturdy adjustable insulator feet provide the strength needed to reproduce detailed, resonance-free music. 

Beautiful design 

Dark ebony natural wood veneer and metal platter, tonearm, and controls look stunning in your space. 
Denon original static balance S-shape tonearm

Features a carefully engineered S-shaped curved tonearm with an optimised tracking angle at any point of the record. This newly improved Denon® arm features cartridge weight adjustment, anti-skating adjustment (0-3 g) and a recently developed arm height adjustment (0-9 mm). It gives you full flexibility to customise your turntable to your preferred cartridges or a custom mat.

Full adjustability

Several adjustment options allow the use of a wide variety of MM or MC cartridges. And with 9 mm vertical height adjustment at the tonearm base, the vertical tracking angle can be easily adjusted.

Direct Drive Motor

Follows a long Denon tradition of direct-drive motor systems, with rotation speed that does not fluctuate no matter the selected speed or load. Simple to use, low maintenance, and reaches full speed almost instantly. Denon released its first direct-drive turntable, the DN-302F, for broadcast studios in 1970.

Space Vector PWM motor control

Space vector pulse width modulation (SV-PWM) is a new design for the motor spinning control. SV-PWM is simply an algorithm used to control the PWM (pulse width modulation) module, which basically powers the motor. SV-PWM greatly reduces harmonics in the motor, which can cause overheating and torque fluctuations, and offers a continuous reliable voltage and frequency output for long periods of listening at any rotation speed or load via continuous feedback of the rotation speed.

SMPS power supply

Switch mode power supply (SMPS) greatly benefits turntables by avoiding the use of a linear transformer, avoiding unnecessary vibrations. It allows integration of the power supply into the turntable, getting rid of any external power transformer or power bricks dangling behind the product. It also avoids voltage and frequency fluctuations from variation in the power grid.
Adjustable insulator feet

The feet are key to protecting the playback from any vibration picked up from the surface the turntable is placed on. But these feet are also adjustable to bring the platter perfectly in balance for the most accurate tracking of the needle in the groove.

Speed selector

Easily play your entire vinyl collection with playback at 33 1/3 rpm, 45 rpm, and 78 rpm.
