Goldring 2100

Easy to fit and align ; tonally well-integrated ; good subtlety and dynamics ; fine detailing

Nothing of note

Another great cartridge from Goldring – at a very affordable price. This should be on any serious audiophile's audition list

Subtle for a budget cartridge, Strong bass

Tendency to sound heavy

Decent but not outstanding sonically, with less insight than we might have wished for, but nothing shameful at this price
