INTRODUCTION
GOLDMUND REFERENCE II Turntable
Goldmund was founded in 1978 and has ever since been dedicated to the accurate reproduction of
sound and image.
At Goldmund, we strive to lead in the creation, development and manufacture of the industry’s
most advanced technologies, including audio and video systems, home - networking and music
distribution.
The guiding principle at Goldmund is to produce a precise sound with the least possible loss of
quality through the different stages. Goldmund will never adopt a technology before it is sufficiently
developed to satisfy the high quality standards we set. This is why Goldmund has often rejected
mainstream technologies and developed its own.

2 CHOICE OF TURNTABLE LOCATION
Due to the total weight of your turntable (300kg), please choose the definitive location of
your turntable in order to install it on site.
Locate the player on a support providing the most rigid possible connection to the floor.
Solid coupling is essential, and if your support is standing on a suspended floor, at least
one foot should be located over a supporting beam or close to a supporting wall for an
optimal result.
