GOLDMUND - Swiss Made High-End Audio Equipment

First deliveries of the CD player version of the SRTT will come up in July. The unit is based on a standard SRTT with a 39DA++ adjunction board for D/A conversion. So you may expect very close sound to the Mimesis 39DA++. The “Alize” built-in technology is so good, this unit will compete easily with far higher price competitors.

First delivery will take place in July. The prototype is already running with a built-in amp and crossover with low pass adjustable crossover at very low frequencies (from 25 to 50 Hz) So, for the price, and the weight, do not expect to hear this new mammoth sub, expect to feel it ! The same push-pull Velvet Kevlar drivers used in the Epilogue 2 will drive it to 120dB at those low frequencies… Delivery will be made directly on a palette and accessory handles are provided for 4 strong people to set it in position. After what you will have access to a specially design roller accessory to move it without the 350kg of the full epilogue to pull out your carpet. The back of the speaker is mounted on rollers and the roller will slightly lift the front to allow some move… Whahh…

As good sounding as you may dream, quite affordable for the performance and incredibly powerful, the Mimesis 28.4 is winning all the first users appreciation. It got so famous already that the new TAS already has a pair in review under the control of Tom Miller. Should see it soon.

We told you last month how proud we were of this baby. Obviously we were right and our first customers jumped on it as hard as we thought. We are oversold for few weeks ! Be patient. In fact, this new circuit is so good in performance that we will soon see a Stellavox professional version and a Job version using a similar circuit built around the same “Alize” technology but in an even smaller shape.

We received complaints from customers about the level adjustment of the Mimesis 22 which was not considered as progressive enough at low levels. More, adjusting the gain of each input to +6dB was reported as sounding even better but made the low level adjustment even worse. We have prepared a new upgrade to the unit for people wanting to join all the advantages and get an even better sound. Thanks to a few changes in values, and the insertion of new “Gold” Goldmund resistors in the active signal path the unit as modified is much easier to adjust in level, has more dynamics and transparency and is even more versatile when used with any kind of input sources. The corresponding software has also been revised and will provide an easier level adjustment by remote. The Upgrade will include a new Remote-Control transmitter made by Goldmund with a much better feeling.

We should be able to give you more details in our coming newsletter.

We told you about it long ago. The Mimesis 24 will most probably be considered as the most advanced unit ever presented by Goldmund. Including a powerful Pentium II control computer for the Goldmund full PC-Theater system, with even a future home appliances control option, a video switch control software for the Barco projection top systems, the Mimesis 24 will also be the first 32bits floating point AC3, DTS, Prologic decoder ever designed. With full remote-control of the Mimesis 20 and 22 with all configuration facilities, the new unit may also be the ethernet server for the coming mini touch-screen computers which may be distributed in the room for the system control. It will also receive small hand-held Infra-red transmitters to keep control of the most usual commands from any position.

Will give you more details soon.

As you probably know, our Goldmund Web Site ran for the last 3 years partially on a Silicon Graphics machine shared with a local Swiss provider and on a local PC machine in our office. Having had quite a few problems those last month with our provider, we recently decided to switch to a full home-installed site Server handling the whole Goldmund traffic.

But since this server is supposed to be installed in our Marketing room, we asked Sylans to make us a totally silent machine. This could well become the most silent Web server in existence.
