Goldring 1042 Hi-Fi Cartridge & Stylus (single), Sound & Vision > TV & Home Audio Parts > Record Player/Turntable Parts

Introducing the 1042: This 1000 series flagship cartridge uses a nude, natural-diamond stylus with a Gyger S profile. The stylus profile is the main factor governing overall sound quality in a cartridge and the shape of the Gyger S with its 6 µm radius allows it to trace the smallest groove detail with complete fidelity for an exceptionally detailed, smooth and musical sound. Low mass Pocan body: The 1000 series uses a strong one-piece body made from a special type of ultra-rigid, glass reinforced polyester called Pocan. Because Pocan has a high strength-to-mass ratio, the overall mass is kept below 6.5 g. Low mass keeps the natural arm/cartridge resonance within safe limits for easy matching to a wide range of tonearms. Expert Adjustment: The 1000 series cartridges have been designed to allow micro-adjustments during production. It means the cartridge can be safely installed on a turntable because the angle that the stylus makes with the record surface has been pre-set. The result is an optimised channel balance that ensures a consistent and reassuring performance for the life of the product. High Efficiency Magnetic Circuit: Finely etched mu-metal is laminated to form the pole pieces around which are fitted two coils of four thousand turns each. This unique design reduces mass and makes for a very efficient magnetic circuit producing a higher-than-average output. This design also reduces the loss at high frequencies inherent in conventional designs, making for a smooth and extended frequency response. 1042 Moving magnet cartridge specifications: Cantilever: Aluminium, Stylus profile: Gyger S, Stylus radius: 5 micron, Frequency range: 18 Hz – 50 kHz, Channel balance: 2 dB at 1 kHz, Channel separation: >25 dB at 1 kHz, Sensitivity: 6.5 mV (1 kHz @ 5 cm/sec), Load resistance: 47 kΩ, Fixing centres: 12.7 mm (0.5 in), Playing weight: 1.5 g - 2.0 g (1.7 g recommended)
