Goldring is well known for its precision-engineered phono cartridges, and now the firm has created its first turntable in decades to go with them. Developed in association with an unnamed but “renowned” British hi-fi manufacturer, the Goldring GR3 features the firm’s award-winning Goldring E3 moving magnet cartridge, a built-in phono pre-amplifier and a choice of interconnects from its sister brand QED.
It’s a good looking thing, but the platter doesn’t just look nice. It’s made of phenolic resin designed to maximize the flywheel effect in order to deliver consistent rotational speed with low wow and flutter in order to ensure accuracy from your records. And there’s a choice of phono-to-phono or phono-to-3.5mm interconnects to suit a wide range of setups.
