Clearaudio Goldfinger Statement Cartridge

Clearaudio Goldfinger Statement Cartridge

The Goldfinger Statement is Clearaudio’s flagship phono cartridge, elevating Peter Suchy’s original cartridge patent and the sound of a vinyl LP to new heights. It is included with our Statement turntable and is the top choice for the Master Innovation and Innovation turntables. Look no further for a world-class moving coil cartridge.

The Goldfinger Statement goes beyond the Clearaudio V2 designs, increasing the number of magnets from eight to twelve, arranged in their patented ring configuration. These twelve magnets are meticuosly matched to create a homogenous flux field to accurately translate the groove modulation into an electrical signal. The dual generator coils are precisely wound using pure 24-karat gold wire around an air-core, eliminating ferrous materials that add unwanted mass and magnetic inconsistencies. The moving coil’s significantly reduced moving mass within the focused and efficient magnetic field results in increased dynamic range and ultra-high resolution of the finest musical details.

True to its name, the Goldfinger Statement is machined from 14-karat gold to provide high mass and excellent damping against resonance. The Goldfinger Statement is also the first moving coil cartridge in the world to integrate electromagnetic field (EMF) shielding of the generator assembly, isolating unwanted noise contamination. As a finishing touch, the Goldfinger Statement features a ½-karat diamond mounted in the front of the body.
