Goldring 1012GX Phono Cartridge
The Goldring 1012GX phono cartridge uses the acclaimed Gyger II diamond stylus. This is a fine-line type which gives smooth extended high frequencies, low distortion and reproduces a highly detailed and dynamic sound. Advanced diamond tip polishing ensures excellent tracking ability and reduces record wear. The Goldring 1012GX represents outstanding value for money and has become one of Goldring's most popular cartridges.
The Goldring 1012GX phono cartridge has a strong, one-piece molded body made from an ultra-rigid glass-reinforced polyester. All fixed parts can be held securely in place and the body can be tightly bolted to the head shell to create structural unity. Its highly efficient magnetic circuit makes for a smooth and extended frequency response. As with all Goldring cartridges, the Goldring 1012GX phono cartridge is rigorously tested at the factory to ensure optimum standards of performance and reliability.
