Clearaudio Goldfinger Phono Cartridge

You may call them irrespective when they conflict with the commonly accepted laws of audio physics. However, it is based on this kind of research and development that Clearaudio can offer the ‘Goldfinger’ to you with the awesome, unbelievable dynamic range of 100dB.

A radical new design of the magnetic circuit, achieved by doubling the magnets up to eight pieces and by using the most powerful magnet materials currently available, assist the company in reaching this new level of standart. This ground-breaking technology is incorporated to a body fashioned from 16 grams of pure gold, carefully polished by the hands of master craftsmen that realised this work of art as a whole masterpiece in technique and linear transparency. Internally, the completely symmetrical generator system is adorned with pure 24ct. gold coils and the new developed 0,00016 grams HD-diamond tip completes ‘Goldfinger’, making it the pinnacle of this achievement.
