GOLDMUND - Swiss Made High-End Audio Equipment

Delivering 5000 Watts rms with the lowest distortion figure ever measured, the Goldmund Telos 5000, the development laboratory of Goldmund for the last 3 years, is the best and most spectacular Power Amplifier ever made by Goldmund.

Developed out of the schematics of the Telos amplifier, the new Telos 5000 extreme specifications required the Goldmund Development team to create a few completely new circuits, some of them using technologies never used before in Audio Amplifiers.

The telos 5000 new circuitry includes a revolutionary full protection circuit for the amplifier itself and its associated speaker, a necessary precaution for the power capability and the increadible speed of the new amplifier, capable of delivering more than 200amps in a few nanoseconds.
The Alize 7 built in the Telos 5000 improves over any pre-existing designs in its ability to recreate 3D space by lowering the noise level to levels barely measurable.
The input circuit is also completely new, using four Class A modules of a completely new topology.
The output circuit uses 72 new Power Mosfets which are especially calibrated for the Telos 5000 and a cascade/bridged circuit of a new type to increase the amplifier's speed above anything ever achieved even in the other Goldmund Telos amplifiers.

The Hard brass construction is pushing the Goldmund Mechanical Grounding construction principle to a level never achieved before.
