Reference

state-of-the-art Turntable

The legend started with the Goldmund Reference vinyl record turntable in 1982 which used the T3 Tonearm technology, the foundation stone of Goldmund company. The Reference was presented at CES and was largely applauded at the show. Goldmund Studio Turntable LP was selected by the Absolute Sound (TAS) in 1983 as one of the 12 Analog Components. That Shook the Audio World.

Eidos Reference

In 2003, Goldmund issued the Eidos Reference CD/DVD Player. This piece was the result of 20 years of research in digital playback systems, of studying all the factors that take place in reading the optical disk perfectly. To achieve these results it has been necessary to resort to technologies previously reserved for military applications. It has been necessary to develop specific materials and devices previously non-existent in the industry.
