The Goldmund Technology Demo Tour
Goldmund is launching a 2010 international tour during which our latest technologies will be demonstrated, compared and dissected! Why?
- Because demonstrations are the clearest and most objective proof of the performance of an audio product, especially when compared to other High End products in the industry.
- Because many people write about Goldmund without having even heard our products. So why not end the blah blah and base critics on facts and experiences?
- Because many people are interested in the technologies we have developed but would like to understand them better. We are receiving countless demands on this subject and want to address them. Brand new technologies take years to develop, they also take a long time to be understood, recognized and accepted.
- Because, and for the same reasons, our distributors have difficulty to explain these technologies and this could only help their training.
The 2010 Goldmund tour is dedicated to those who want to obtain deeper insights into the scientific studies we make and the technologies that result of them. It is also for those who want to experience how these technologies serve the high quality standards our products deliver. Several types of demonstrations will be offered:
- Comparative speaker demonstrations with and without the Proteus 2-channel technology. We will propose Goldmund speakers but also speakers from other brands that may be decided depending on their local notoriety.
- Comparative demos / blind tests of the Telos power amplifiers compared to any (yes, any!) other locally successful power amplifier.
- Blind tests between our Eidos disc players and any (yes, any!) other high end players of famous brands (Esoteric, Ayre, etc...).
- Digital vs. analog systems blind tests. Like Mimesis 22 vs. Mimesis 32 driving a pair of Telos in a 2-channel system.
We will keep you informed in this newsletter of the schedule of the Goldmund Technology Demo Tour events.
For the time being, the first of these events are already planned in Singapore and New York.
We will also invite the local Press to write a neutral report on attendee's opinions and comments that we will publish afterwards.
This promises to be very exciting!
Grand Opening of the Goldmund New York Media Room
We are proud to announce the opening of a new Media Room at the Goldmund New York Showroom. The system presented is a mix of internal and external (visible) elements that are configurated with the Proteus technology. The capability to use the Proteus modeling with both Media Room equipment and traditional Goldmund audiophile products is the major breakthrough of the Media Room Generation 3. This huge technological advancement implies that most of the existing 2-channel high-level Goldmund systems can be easily transformed into the perfect surround home theater system without affecting the setup of the room in 2-channel (improving it, in fact). It also implies that new customers who wish to install a Media Room will be able to use it as a music room in two channels AND as a full surround home theater. This configuration change is only one touch away on their soon to be available iPad!
The Grand Opening of our NYC Goldmund Media Room will be celebrated on February 24 with a special event. Mr. Michel Reverchon, President of Goldmund, will be present to explain how our state-of-the-art patented technologies will revolutionize the home theater market. A full report on this event will be available in the March newsletter.
