This summer 2021 will be marked by the introduction of new products on maPlatine.com<\/strong>! Today, we have the pleasure to present to you a brand that arrived only a few years ago on the audio market: Gold Note<\/a> (Discover all the products from Gold Note).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gold Note brand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 2012 by Maurizio Aterini, Gold Note is the first Italian manufacturer in the high-end audio and analogue field:<\/strong> turntables<\/a>, phono preamps<\/a>, phono cartridges<\/a>, separate power supplies<\/a>\u2026 Gold Note<\/strong> offers a full range allowing to set up a complete Hi-Fi system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a music lover, Maurizio Aterini is especially attached to the art of audio reproduction. In fact, he wishes to conceive all his Hi-Fi devices with high-end materials<\/strong> and, what is more, from Italy! A philosophy which allowed Gold Note to become a brand renowned in the whole world in less than 10 years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold Note turntables: Italian craftsmanship and expertise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Born in Florence (Italy), Gold Note honours a whole expertise and the quality of the Italian craftsmanship<\/strong>. We find these elements in all their products, and especially their turntables. On maPlatine.com<\/strong>, we propose you to discover two ranges of Gold Note turntables<\/strong>: \u201cValore 425<\/strong>\u201d and \u201cThe Italian Turntable\u201d, including a total of 5 models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold Note Valore 425 Lite and Valore 425 Plus turntables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The range of Valore 425<\/strong> turntables<\/strong> matches Gold Note<\/strong> entry level, and consists of 2 references: Valore 425 Lite<\/a> <\/strong> and Valore 425 Plus<\/a> <\/strong>. The latter is an improved version of the first one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Valore 425 Lite <\/strong>and Valore 425 Plus turntables<\/strong> have several similarities: a 30 mm MDF chassis, a thick platter, a belt drive principle, a 9-inch tonearm and a high-quality phono cable. The Valore 425 Lite <\/strong>is only offered in a nice black finish, while the Valore 425 Plus is offered in several stylish finishes: silver, Italian walnut, acrylic or black. These two turntables are supplied without phono cartridge, but they can be paired with a large selection of MM <\/a> or MC cartridges<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

From the musical side, we immediately noted the excellent balance of these Gold Note Valore 425<\/strong>, between transparency, dynamic range and nuance. The reproduction is as good as analogue can get. And the Valore 425 Plus<\/strong> goes even further, with swing and realism. We were astonished by this level of musicality and performances for turntables<\/a> of this price range! And we aren\u2019t the only ones since they received lots of awards from the specialised press these past few years: Hi-Fi Choice, Hi-Fi+, Hi-Fi Pig, OnTopAudio\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold Note Pianosa turntable <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Pianosa turntable <\/strong>is the most affordable turntable of \u201cThe Italian Turntable\u201d range from Gold Note<\/strong>. We have here similar elements from the Valore 425 Plus<\/strong>, but also clear improvements. On the outside, the Gold Note Pianosa<\/strong> is distinguished by its double plinth, with a half wave shaped curved lower part, manufactured by Italian craftsmen. It is also equipped with an even better 9-inch tonearm, the B-5.1 from Gold Note (Go to the Gold Note B-5.1 tonearm page for more information).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like all previous models, the Gold Note Pianosa turntable<\/strong> offers a balanced and musical reproduction. The Pianosa offers a nice instrument timbre et voices full of realism. The emotion is clearly present with this Gold Note turntable!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold Note Giglio turntable <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Gold Note Giglio turntable<\/strong> is the second model from \u201cThe Italian Turntable\u201d range. We have here some of the characteristics from the Pianosa<\/strong>, like the double plinth with the half wave shaped lower part or the B-5.1 tonearm<\/a>. The Giglio<\/strong> motor was improved to get a better speed stability and therefore a better accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Gold<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Besides being very pretty and well finished, the Gold Note Giglio<\/a><\/strong> offers superb audio performances. The reproduction is as balanced and musical as ever. The soundstage is wide, in 3D with a very accurate placement of the instruments and therefore a remarkable realism. This Giglio turntable<\/strong> from the Italian brand is one of our favourites!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold Note Mediterraneo turntable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Gold Note Mediterraneo<\/strong> turntable<\/strong> is the most ambitious model from \u201cThe Italian Turntable\u201d range. Like previous models, the Mediterraneo<\/strong> is provided with the same elements, but these ones received lots of improvements allowing to offer high-end audio performances.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have here the Gold Note<\/strong> signature aesthetic, with a high-quality Italian manufacture as usual. A special mention goes to the very stylish golden finish! The upper part is manufactured in Sustarin, a material offering a better rigidity and vibration absorption. The total weight of the turntable was increased. Gold Note<\/strong> also offers two possible options in terms of tonearm: the B-5.1 tonearm or the B-7 Ceramic high-precision tonearm<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Gold<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Just like its manufacture and components, the playback of this Gold Note Mediterraneo<\/a><\/strong> is of the highest quality! The reproduction is vibrant, nuanced, dynamic and full of emotions. In fact, it was praised by the specialised press (Hi-Fi News, Hi-Fi Choice, HiFi Pig, The Audiophile Man, Positive Feedback\u2026) and earned lots of prestigious awards which says a lot about its performances. This high-end turntable is a nice success and shows all the expertise from Gold Note<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its five models of high-quality turntables, it\u2019s clear that Gold Note<\/strong> made a hit and seduced lots of music lovers, including maPlatine.com<\/strong>! But that\u2019s not all since Gold Note<\/strong> offers lots of other Hi-Fi <\/strong>products which we will present to you in details very soon in our blog. \u201cTo be continued\u201d then\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
