The Goldring 1006 is a meticulously hand-built cartridge known for its superior audio performance. At the heart of its design is an elliptical stylus, which is expertly crafted to trace the highest frequency grooves on records with remarkable accuracy. This precision is a significant advantage compared to conventional spherical styli, which tend to compromise on high-frequency detail. Furthermore, the Goldring 1006 features a lightweight stylus shank that contributes to a lower tip mass. This design choice not only enhances the cartridge's ability to capture subtle audio nuances but also improves its transient response, offering a more dynamic and refined listening experience. The focus on these key attributes places the Goldring 1006 in a league above typical metal bonded types, making it an excellent choice for audiophiles seeking to elevate their turntable setup with a cartridge that delivers both clarity and precision.
