GOLD NOTE - Muzica, Design, Toscana, Florenta.
Ne cunoastem, respectam si simpatizam reciproc cu
Maurizio Aterini, fondatorul, creierul si proprietarul
GOLD NOTE de mai bine de 15 ani.
Am decis, in cele din urma, sa si lucram impreuna,
dupa ce, fara dubii, am ajuns la concluzia ca impartim
valori comune, care depasesc cu mult sfera audio,
a produselor si implicit a vanzarii lor.
Discutiile de ore in sir sunt ceva obisnuit intre parti,
de atunci.
Ce inseamna GOLD NOTE, in afara de prestigiul si
privilegiul de a fi un brand global si recunoscut ca atare?
Inseamna placerea de a conduce un Lincoln Continental
din anii 60, un Cadillac Eldorado sau 6200 din anii 60 ori
dupa preferinte, un Mercedes-Benz 300SL din aceeasi ani 60.
Toate cu tehnologia ultra avansata a zilelor noastre in interior.
Asta este in esenta GOLD NOTE, un produs cu un design
atemporal, clasic si in acelasi timp industrial / futurist, plin de
tehnologie de ultima ora.
Practic, Phono Stage-urile si Streamer-ele GOLD NOTE inglobeaza
tehnologie de ultima ora tinand pasul cu tot ceea ce inseamna
modernism si avantgarda in domeniu.
Totul si toate (produsele) sub o deviza clara:
Un design reusit care se imbina perfect cu o muzicalitate seducatoare.
O gama de produse exceptionala, care acopera tot necesarul iubitorilor
de muzica si a celor care isi doresc o integrare naturala in Living:
Amplificatoare, CD-Player, DAC, Streamer, Power Supply, Boxe,
Stand-uri, Cabluri (Power si Interconnect), Pick-up si Doze.
Toate fabricate manual in Florenta.
