My new Goldring 2400 cartridge has arrived and replaced my excellent but in-need-of-ugrade Rega Elys. I always thought the Elys was good, the usual words - transparent, tight base, accurate, organic, dynamic, etc. they applied. But the Goldring is definitely an improvement (it should be at twice the price). Anyone want a second hand Elys?!

RE: Goldring GL2400 cartridge!!!!!!

I've spoke with my Rega dealer as he is a Golring dealer as well about the 2400 and he still advised me the 1012gx, and i love my combo, RP3 Goldring 1012 gx! 

 

Right now i'm listening to Simple Minds LIVE in the city of Light and man, i'm delighted...! 

 

The Dynaudios are singing like hell!

I've always been a fan of Goldring cartridges. They do offer great value for money.

When I spoke to my localish Rega dealer he said my ClearAudio would walk over the Rega offerings.
