A TURNTABLE MASTERWORK

With equal parts beauty and sound quality, the DP-3000NE aims to change how you feel about sound.

PREMIUM DIRECT-DRIVE HI-FI TURNTABLE

Premium direct-drive turntable with Denon® S-Shape tonearm, solid construction, and stunning design.

SOLID CONSTRUCTION 

Solid construction and sturdy adjustable insulator feet provide the strength needed to reproduce detailed, resonancefree 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-Shape tonearm suppresses vibration and optimizes tracking angle at any point of the record.

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

Simple to use with rotation speed that does not fluctuate, no matter the selected speed or load, and reaches full speed almost instantly. No aging belt to be replaced in the future.

SPACE VECTOR PWM MOTOR CONTROL

SV-PWM is an algorithm to control the motor’s power supply to greatly reduce harmonics and ensures continuous reliable voltage for highly accurate speed.

SPEED SELECTOR

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

Direct-drive motor system

Follows a long Denon tradition of direct-drive motor system, 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.

Denon original static balance S-Shape tonearm

Features a carefully engineered S-Shape curved tonearm with optimized 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 newly developed arm height adjustment (0-9 mm). It gives you full flexibility to customize your turntable to your preferred cartridges or custom mat.

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 protect 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.
