Detailed Description

Moving Coil Design

The Goldring Eroica LX Cartridge features a moving coil design, which is renowned for its ability to reproduce sound with superior detail and accuracy. Unlike moving magnet (MM) cartridges, the moving coil design employs a lightweight coil that moves within a magnetic field, resulting in a more precise and responsive sound. This configuration is particularly favored by audiophiles who prioritize sonic clarity and dynamic range.

Gyger II Stylus Profile

Equipped with a Gyger II stylus profile, the Eroica LX Cartridge excels in tracing the grooves of vinyl records with exceptional accuracy. The complex shape of the Gyger II stylus allows it to retrieve fine musical details and nuances, delivering a listening experience that is both rich and immersive. This stylus profile also reduces groove wear, extending the lifespan of both the stylus and vinyl records.

Aluminum Cantilever

The cartridge features an aluminum cantilever that enhances its tracking ability and reduces overall mass. The rigidity of the aluminum material ensures that the stylus maintains optimal contact with the record grooves, resulting in improved sound accuracy and reduced distortion. This construction choice supports the cartridge's ability to faithfully reproduce a wide range of frequencies, from deep bass to sparkling highs.

High Purity Copper Windings

The Eroica LX Cartridge is designed with high-purity copper windings, which are crucial for efficient signal transmission. These windings minimize electrical resistance, allowing for a cleaner and more transparent audio signal. As a result, the cartridge delivers a sound that is both clear and detailed, capturing the essence of the original recording without unwanted coloration.

Low Resonance Body

Goldring has engineered the Eroica LX Cartridge with a low resonance body, which plays a vital role in minimizing unwanted vibrations. By reducing resonance, the cartridge is able to deliver a purer audio signal, free from distortion or coloration caused by external factors. This design consideration ensures that the music remains true to the artist's intent, providing a natural and engaging listening experience.
