very good MM cartridge recommendations

[walpurgis]

If you read the technical on the Goldring site it’s what they call a Moving Iron (MI) cartridge.

Presumably, that's a similar idea to the 'induced magnet' principle employed in the (rather nice) ADC cartridges.

Can't remember. It could have been a 220XE or a 10E Mk.IV. Still got a few in my collection.

I had a Goldring 1042 for ages, excellent alternative to a similarly priced ~£400 M/C
But it needs a new stylus, couldn't afford one (£250 or something), so have bought the "entry level" Goldring E1 MM and for £65 I am really impressed.
I wouldn't look any further than Goldring when I can afford it next.
Good performance with very few bad habits. The perfect marriage

Another interesting proposal.

[oldson]

is the 2500 discontinued? cant see it on goldring uk site

[CageyH]

It looks that way.

450 notes for the 2500, bloody rip off. The At 540ml is rather good, lots of fine detail retrieval, but does pick up a lot of surface noise, and retails around £200. Mine is buggered, and I won't be buying another because of all the bloody surface noise!!
