Description
The Goldring philosophy is to promote the accurate
reproduction of the original recording, maintaining the creative nuances,
musicality and rhythm the artist intended you to hear. The E Series is designed
to capture this experience when used with all medium to high mass tonearms
found on the majority of budget to medium priced turntables. This is achieved
through the use of our Magnetic Duplex Technology and Goldring Expert
Adjustment.
The E3 cartridge, the highest in the range features the same
aluminium cantilever as the E2, but benefits from a superior bonded,
super-elliptical (0.3 x 0.7 mil) stylus. This gives it superior high frequency
groove detail retrieval ability over ordinary elliptical (0.4 x 0.7 mil) or
spherical (0.6 mil) styli due to its smaller front to back radius. Its main
effect is the reduction of sibilance, especially in high level vocal recordings
Features and Benefits
Magnetic Duplex Technology™
All cartridges in the range feature Magnetic Duplex
Technology™-a ‘dual magnet’ generator assembly which more accurately traces the
record groove providing better stereo separation and a more involving and
musical sound stage.
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 optimised 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.
