Pro-Ject 2 Turntable / Goldring E2 Cartridge

Pro-Ject 2 Turntable
Our turntables set new standards and show how audiophile quality analogue reproduction may be achieved with simple and cost effective means. The success of Pro-Ject record players and many customer's comments have led us to develop a mechanically more advanced model based on the Pro-Ject 1.2. The Pro-Ject is characterised by its use of a low-resonance sandwich platter and RCA phono connectors for the tonearm lead.

Goldring E2 Cartridge
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.
The E2 cartridge, the middle in the range, features the same spherical stylus profile as the E1 but with the additional benefit of an upgraded aluminium cantilever. This is both stiff and light weight allowing the stylus to more accurately trace medium to high frequencies offering more detail and reducing distortion and mis-tracking during loud passages.
