Description

Goldring G1012GX Moving Magnet Cartridge is an absolute Gem. This​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ cartridge is built around the famous Gyger II nude diamond stylus. It’s a thin-lined elliptical that has a 6 µm small radius giving it smooth, extended highs. Low distortion and the ability to reproduce a highly detailed and dynamic sound.

Goldring G1012GX Moving Magnet Cartridge

The diamond tip has been polished at an advanced level for excellent tracking ability and less record wear. It is a major upgrade over normal elliptical stylus types as it fills the record groove more completely due to its larger major radius.

Low Mass Pocan® Body

The whole series 1000 is build around a strong one single piece body that securely holds the fixed parts.  The user replaceable stylus carrier fits very tightly into the body with a locating pin which prevents unwanted vibrations that would otherwise alter the sound.

Mu-metal can is integral ensuring the generator parts are shielded from stray magnetic fields causing hum. Pocan has very a high strength-to-mass ratio meaning total mass of the G1000 series cartridges is less than 6.5 g. Low mass and moderate compliance that keep the natural arm/cartridge resonance with limits which are safe for easy matching to a wide range of tonearms.

High Efficiency Magnetic Circuit

Mu-metal sheets are directly etched and laminated to form the pole pieces around which two formerless coils of four thousand turns each are fitted. This design is not only ergonomic. It also makes the magnetic circuit very efficient and produces higher output than average. T

his construction also lessens the high frequencies losses that are common in conventional designs. Which allow for a smoother and extended frequency response.

Reduced Moving Mass

The 1000 series makes use of a proprietary ultra-low-mass micro-miniature Alnico V magnet manufactured to a tolerance that no other manufacturer can achieve worldwide. The magnet has a gold-plated nickel tie-bar which provides the earth path for vinyl static charge build-up. At the same time preserves the cantilever from vibrating in undesired modes.

Expert Adjustment

Stylus azimuth or horizontal tracking angle setting is one of the factors that will keep the stereo sound stage correctly. Azimuth is a term describing the angle the vertical center line of the stylus makes with the record surface and it must be exactly perpendicular to the record groove. Most budget decks will not allow user adjustment of this parameter.

Therefore the cartridge must be preset with the azimuth precisely adjusted before it leaves the factory. A misadjusted azimuth can lead to unequal channel balance and increased cross-talk between channels. Which would dramatically reduce the stereo ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌image.
