A Goldring márka új zászlóshajója az MC hangszedők között. A Legacy hangszedőt váló Goldring ETHOS hangszedő Vital Line tű profillal, Al tűszárral, rendkívül erős neodym mágnessel és repülőgép aluminium házával méltó utódja a híres Legacy MC modellnek. A megduplázott kimenő jelszint, a finom részletgazdag megszólalás, a selymes de precíz hangkarakter minden analóg zene kedvező számára ideális választássá teszi a Goldring Ethos MC hangszedőt.

Line-Contact Stylus
The line-contact diamond profile provides a large contact area with the groove wall, improving the retrieval of high frequency detail and reducing groove wear. Its vital-shaped shank has a low tip mass giving the design exceptionally good trackability.
|
|
Alloy Cantilever
The stiff and lightweight alloy cantilever tube has been tuned to the ideal length for cartridge stability and ride height. Its length has been optimised to reduce inertia in the suspension system and improve trackability.
|
|
Cross-Shaped Armature
The coils are wound around a cross-shaped armature of pure, high-permeability, Swedish iron. The reduced unsprung mass improves the ability for the stylus to track the groove wall and minimises cross-talk, improving the stereo image.
|
|
Optimised Suspension
The new damper pad uses a bespoke butyl rubber compound to keep the system critically damped. Combined with an expertly tensioned tie-wire, the cartridge remains ultra-stable even during the loudest and most complex passages.
|
|
Neodymium Magnet
A very light and powerful neodymium magnet is clamped between two pole shoes creating a perfectly uniform magnetic field gap, within which the cross armature is suspended. This gives Ethos its typically flat and extended frequency response.
|
|
Aluminium Body Shell
The body is precision-milled from a low density, rigid, aircraft grade aluminium which helps to maintain a low effective mass and enables it to dissipate unwanted resonances into the tonearm where they are effectively ‘grounded’.
