GOLD NOTE TURNTABLES Your hosts for everything vinyl

THE ITALIAN TURNTABLES Unless you are a long-time fan, you might not know that the very first design we ever made was a tonearm, followed by a turntable. So in a way, you could say that the Gold Note you see today has its roots in the analogue world even if the last years were dedicated to a deep dive into the newest technologies of HiFi electronics. From the efforts of our team of technicians, designers and craftsmen, came two series of turntables that represent the essence of the "Italian Sound". The beautiful Mediterraneo is the first turntable we launched and is still at the heart of our collection of vinyl decks. It was a challenging project for our team because their goal was to create a design that delivers stellar sound quality and also offers a distinct sense of style, beauty and ease of use. Materials play a crucial role as well as we are committed to using only locally sourced Italian materials engineered to optimize rigidity and control vibrations. For the main plinth of the turntables we choose Walnut Hardwood, MDF lacquered in black lacquer or the new real Gold Leaf - a tribute to the masters of the Florentine tradition. A 3mm thick stainless steel board and an additional 20mm board in polished black acrylic or MDF are joint to the main plinth to further improve the exceptional dampening quality and stability of the turntables.

TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS FOR A BEAUTIFUL SOUND The platter made of ultra-dampened POM is driven via belt by a frictionless, high-efficiency synchronous motor and electronics tailored to each turntables’ needs to remove noise and deliver the perfect amount of torque for great dynamic and details. Other sophisticated technical solutions include the spindle/bearing system that allows the turntable to achieve higher precision and control over the rotation of the platter, the high-precision tonearm, as well as the practical hinged dust cover. The Valore 425 Plus and Lite turntables offer a more traditional look with luxurious finishes, such as transparent Acrylic, Walnut Veneer, Black Lacquer or real Silver Foil. Equipped with technical solutions deriving directly from the flagship models, they deliver High-End sound and are the perfect way to discover the marvellous world of vinyl.

MEDITERRANEO The Mediterraneo won several awards over the last few years, such as Highly Recommended Product Award from Positive Feedback, Mono & Stereo, Hifi News, Hifi Pig, Enjoy the Music and more.

"I enjoyed my time with this system… a true reflection of Italian mastery. For sure, it is not pushing the envelope in terms of price… truth is, the Gold Note is priced rather affordable for the fit, finish, and sound I have experienced. A bargain." by Dave Clark READ NOW

VALORE 425 PLUS The Valore 425 Plus won the 2019 Turntable of the Year Award by HiFi+.

"Just as the deck is perfectly pitched in terms of cartridge matching for the money, it’s also extremely well-matched in terms of the kind of system this turntable is likely to partner." by Alan Sircom READ NOW
