Goldring E3 Moving Magnet Turntable Cartridge
The E3 cartridge, representing the top of the range features the same aluminium cantilever as the E2, but benefits from a superior, bonded, super-elliptical 0.3 x 0.7 Millimetre stylus. This gives it better high frequency detail retrieval over ordinary elliptical 0.4 x 0.7 Millimetre or spherical 0.6 Millimetre types due to its smaller front-to-back radius. The main effect is the reduction of sibilance, especially in high level vocal recordings.

The Goldring philosophy is to promote the accurate replication of the original record production, maintaining the creative nuances, musicality and rhythm the artist intended you to hear. With the versatile E Series, this is easy to achieve; each is designed to be simple to fit to the majority of budget to medium priced turntables.

Magnetic Duplex Technology™
All cartridges in the range feature Magnetic Duplex Technology™ a ‘dual magnet’ generator assembly with an identical geometry to that of the original cutting head. This means it can more accurately reproduce the stereo information in the record groove, providing better channel separation and a more involving and musical sound stage.
Expert Adjustment
The E-series cartridges have been designed to allow micro-adjustments to be made during production using a special adjustment screw. This means the cartridge can be safely installed in a typical turntable because the angle that the stylus makes with the record surface has been pre-set. The result is an optimised channel balance with zero degrees of horizontal tracking adjustment required. This ensures a consistent and reassuring performance for the life of the product.
Stylus/Cantilever
Featuring spherical styli with a choice of cantilevers, the E1 and E2 models are ideal as an upgrade to any budget, pre-fitted or obsolete cartridge. The E3 model with its refined super elliptical stylus is a worthwhile upgrade for those wishing to squeeze even more information and detail from the record groove.
Q What is the Goldring E3 and what is it used for?
It's a moving magnet cartridge from Goldring's E Series, factory-fitted on the Goldring GR3 turntable, designed for accurate replication of the original record production while preserving the artist's musicality and rhythm.
Q What stylus does it use?
A bonded super-elliptical stylus (0.3 x 0.7mm), offering better high-frequency detail retrieval than a standard elliptical or spherical stylus, and particularly reducing sibilance in vocals.
Q What is the cantilever made of?
Aluminum.
Q What technology gives it accurate channel separation?
Magnetic Duplex Technology — a dual magnet generator with geometry identical to the original record cutting head, pre-set at the correct stylus angle so it requires zero horizontal tracking adjustment during setup.
Q What is its output voltage, tracking force, and compliance?
The product page doesn't list these specifications — worth checking Goldring's official spec sheet if those details matter for matching it to your tonearm and phono stage.
