Overview

Grado Prestige Series Gold3 Turntable Phono Cartridge

The Prestige series of cartridges are designed for high output and excellent stability under severe use. A considerable tip mass reduction results in a frequency response to 60 kHz and beyond, and tracking forces from 1-2 grams. Grado's Prestige Series cartridges are acclaimed by experts as virtually the finest pickups in the world at their price.

Gold3 phono cartridges are hand-selected Silver1s that meet such a high standard that only about 5% of the Silver1s make the grade. Grado's redesigned Gold3 phono cartridges have had their coil design reconfigured, and the effective moving mass of their generating system has been reduced by 17%. The Gold3 uses a four-piece OTL (optimized transmission line) cantilever technology, ultra-high purity, long crystal wire in the coils, and Grado's specially designed elliptical diamond mounted in a brass bushing.

Each Grado Gold3 phono cartridge is hand-made in Brooklyn, New York and tested for frequency response, channel balance, phase linearity, inductance, and resistance. All Gold3 cartridges feature user-replaceable stylii.
