Goldring 1042
This is a cartridge for Hi-End use that ensures maximum sonic performance from your system, along with the convenience of a user replaceable stylus.
The 1042 uses a natural diamond stylus with a Gyger S profile.
The stylus profile is the main factor governing the overall sound quality in a cartridge, and the shape of the Gyger S with its 6 μm radius allows the smallest detail of the groove to be traced with complete fidelity.
Mid-range tonality is incredibly accurate and precise with high frequency sibilance banished.
