Product Summary
The Goldring D12GX is the genuine replacement stylus for the Goldring 1012GX moving magnet cartridge. Featuring a nude Gyger II diamond, it provides highly accurate groove tracing with smooth extended treble, low distortion and excellent retrieval of fine musical detail.
The Gyger II profile uses a fine 6µm contact radius and advanced diamond polishing to improve tracking accuracy while reducing record wear compared with conventional elliptical stylus designs. Its low 0.45mg equivalent tip mass also helps the stylus respond quickly to subtle groove information.
The D12GX is user replaceable, allowing a worn 1012GX stylus to be renewed without replacing the complete cartridge. Goldring 1000 Series styli share the same fitting, so the D12GX can also be used with compatible 1000 Series cartridge bodies as an upgrade or replacement.
