Goldring E4
Goldring introduces its flagship E Series moving magnet cartridge: E4. Designed as the ultimate upgrade for any modern budget or midrange turntable, E4 represents the pinnacle of E Series engineering and performance.
E4 is designed to be compatible with all medium-to-high-mass tonearms of the type found on the majority of budget to midrange turntables. And because it’s constructed using the same high-quality core as the other E Series cartridges in the range, E4 is ideal both for those who wish to upgrade an obsolete cartridge in its entirety or those who want to boost the performance of their existing E Series cartridge by replacing the stylus

„It is a glorious-sounding cartridge, as much at home with rock as it is with classical or jazz. It offers great precision of reproduction, with a very pleasant overall tone, great highs, and thundering lows. I can’t recommend it highly enough.”

„It’s this balance that makes the E4 a compelling new arrival at this sort of price… The rest of the E Series is characterised by its unflappable all-round ability and the E4 brings these same welcome qualities to a whole new price point… A fine new arrival to the E Series that builds on its performance without losing its virtues.”

„The E4 joins the E Series and tops the range in fine style. The basic qualities that have made its affordable counterparts the success they have been are still entirely present but the flagship offers detail, refinement and realism that makes for a compelling offering for the asking price”
