TELOS 3800
The Heart of High-Fidelity
Mono Power Amplifier
CHINA EXCLUSIVE
The Discipline of Precision
The Telos 3800 mono power amplifier sets a new benchmark for high-performance amplification, delivering extraordinary power with cutting-edge technology. At its core lies Goldmund’s proprietary Telos® amplification technology, a meticulously engineered Class A/B circuit that merges the linearity of analogue components with a high-bandwidth architecture. The result? Unparalleled sonic purity with ultra-low distortion and maximum efficiency.
The Art of Control
Telos® amplifiers are designed for absolute speaker control, providing clean power while preserving the integrity of the audio signal. Proper driver control ensures high-fidelity sound reproduction without distortion or unwanted artifacts.
This is particularly key in low frequencies, preventing woofer diaphragms from excessive motion and, hence, unwanted vibrations. By enhancing linearity of each amplification stage, Telos® technology virtually eliminates harmonic and intermodulation distortion. A higher-bandwidth circuit reduces group delay distortion, ensuring impeccable timing and sonic coherence.
Crafted for Acoustic Truth
Goldmund’s advanced circuit architecture separates high and low-current circuits, preventing feedback and interference for pristine audio signal transmission. The integration of Mechanical Grounding™ technology further enhances signal purity by channeling vibrations directly into the ground. The sophisticated output impedance reduction improves micro-dynamics, controls excessive woofer overshot in high-power conditions, and eliminates unnaturally “boomy” bass, guaranteeing absolute sonic transparency.
From Theory to Thrill
Despite its immense power, the Telos 3800 delivers exceptional performance from the very first watt. Whether at whisper-quiet volumes or at full-volume orchestral energy, its amplification remains pure, dynamic, and distortion-free—offering an immersive listening experience like no other.
Many amplifiers excel in ideal lab conditions with resistive loads but fail to deliver a truly immersive experience with real-world passive speakers. Goldmund’s amplifiers go beyond conventional benchmarks, ensuring flawless technical performance and superior real-world sonic results for the most faithful audio reproduction.
Beauty Forged in Function
Every design element of the Telos 3800 is crafted for both performance and visual appeal:
Seamless Aluminum Chassis: Precision-machined from micro-blasted grey aluminum, its sleek, joint-free chassis offers both structural integrity and aesthetic refinement.
Advanced Electromagnetic Shielding: The solid aluminum structure acts as a barrier against EMI, ensuring pure, undisturbed sound.
Optimized Thermal Management: Its 15mm-thick aluminum panels and 40mm-thick radiator chassis serve as an integrated passive heat sink, maintaining optimal operating temperatures.
Absolute Sound
Heavy-Weight Structure: A robust, heavy-weight envelope ensures maximum stability, while specialized resin-coated transformers minimize mechanical and electronic vibrations eliminating unwanted resonances.
Conic Feet Technology: A core element of Goldmund’s Mechanical Grounding™ system, these feet effectively evacuate vibrations into the ground, preventing resonance buildup.
Energy, Reengineered
The Telos 3800 surpasses the capabilities of its predecessor, the Telos 3300 NextGen, through an entirely redesigned power supply system featuring customized power capacitor banks tailored to Goldmund’s strict standards. Key advancements include:
- A new soft-start system for seamless power-up.
- Enhanced energy storage for consistent power delivery.
- Near-zero contact resistance in circuit boards and cabling, eliminating power loss.
- A stable power output, immune to fluctuations in mains voltage for optimal amplifier responsiveness.
Silver-metallized capacitors provide ultra-stable linear power supply, ensuring uncompromised performance.
Stability at Its Core
Designed for reliability, the Telos 3800 incorporates an advanced protection system. Should temperature limits be exceeded or a short circuit occur, the amplifier automatically enters protection mode, temporarily pausing operation until conditions return to normal. This intelligent safeguard extends the amplifier’s lifespan while protecting connected speakers. The power amp features a new trigger system with a mini jack connector that automatically turns it on when the connected sound source (like a streamer) is switched on—no manual start needed.
Tailored to Transcend
Beyond capacitors, many electronic and mechanical components in the Telos 3800 have been designed, engineered, and fine-tuned exclusively for Goldmund’s amplifiers. These proprietary elements are developed to our precise specifications and are unavailable anywhere else, ensuring a unique level of sonic purity. Presented in Goldmund’s distinguished gray, this model is reserved for exclusive distribution within China.
No Compromise, Only Craft
Goldmund’s sonic philosophy is built on absolute purity:
- Near-zero noise
- Near-zero vibration
- No overheating
- Near-zero harmonic distortion
- Near-zero intermodulation & ultra-low TIM distortion
- Exceptionally high dynamic range
Each amplifier undergoes rigorous objective testing and subjective listening evaluations to ensure it delivers the purest, most immersive sound experience possible.
Nothing But the Truth
