Goldring E3 High-Output Moving Magnet Phono Cartridge

Summary

• Introducing the E3: The E3 cartridge features same aluminium cantilever as the E2, but benefits from a superior, bonded, super-elliptical stylus. This gives it better high frequency detail retrieval over ordinary elliptical or types due to its smaller front-to-back radius. The main effect is the reduction of sibilance, especially in high level vocal recordings.
• Magnetic Duplex Technology: All cartridges in the range feature Magnetic Duplex Technology- a 'dual magnet' generator assembly means it can more accurately reproduce the stereo information in the record groove, providing better channel separation and a more involving and musical sound stage.
• Expert Adjustment: The E-series cartridges have been designed to allow micro-adjustments during production. It means the cartridge can be safely installed on a turntable because the angle that the stylus makes with the record surface has been pre-set. The result is an optimised channel balance that ensures a consistent and reassuring performance for the life of the product.
• Stylus/Cantilever: Featuring spherical styli with a choice of cantilevers, the E1 and E2 models are ideal as an upgrade to any budget, pre-fitted or obsolete cartridge. The E3 model with its re¬fined super elliptical stylus is a worthwhile upgrade for those wishing to squeeze even more information and detail from the record groove.
