Goldring E3 Moving Magnet Cartridge
The Goldring philosophy is to promote the accurate replication of the original record production, maintaining the creative nuances, musicality and rhythm the artist intended you to hear. With the versatile E Series, this is easy to achieve; each is designed to be simple to fit to the majority of budget to medium priced turntables. The E3 cartridge, representing the top of the range features the same aluminum cantilever as the E2, but benefits from a superior, bonded, super-elliptical (0.3 x 0.7 mil) stylus. This gives it better high frequency detail retrieval over ordinary elliptical (0.4 x 0.7 mil) or spherical (0.6 mil) types due to its smaller front-to-back radius. The main effect is the reduction of sibilance, especially in high level vocal recordings “It produces a classic vinyl sound, warm, relaxed and effortless…” The Ear “A superbly realised cartridge that will work well with the majority of affordable turntables.” What Hi-Fi?, 5 Stars & 2020 Award Winner “It brought out every note with a precision I never imagined a moving magnet could muster.” Stereophile “The Goldring E3 is the top of the company’s entry-level series and offers a smooth, very balanced sound.” CNET “…it is one of the best budget cartridges, at this price point, currently for sale on the market.” The Audiophile Man, 9/10, Deeply Groovy “… I still feel I’m not expressing how impressed I am with this “budget” cartridge, it is an amazing value for its price point and easily one of the best among other cartridges not only in its price pool, but even some higher ones. Highly, highly recommended bang for your buck. Big sound with a small price.” Needles & Grooves
Features
MAGNETIC DUPLEX TECHNOLOGY™
EXPERT ADJUSTMENT
The E-series cartridges have been designed to allow micro-adjustments to be made during production using a special adjustment screw. This means the cartridge can be safely installed in a typical turntable because the angle that the stylus makes with the record surface has been pre-set. The result is an optimized channel balance with zero degrees of horizontal tracking adjustment required. This 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 refined super elliptical stylus is a worthwhile upgrade for those wishing to squeeze even more information and detail from the record groove.
