I have a thing for Goldmund’s clean minimalist lines that imbue their products with an architectural air. In other words, I like the way they look.
The new Goldmund Telos 670 is an integrated amplifier offering 215 Watts of Class A/B power per channel into 8 ohms from its proprietary Telos amplification technology.
Here’s Goldmund on Telos:
Speaker control is exerted in two ways: by giving them enough power to produce high-quality and undistorted sound; and by controlling the drivers better preventing them from producing parasite sound. This is especially true in low frequencies where drivers’ range of to and fro movement is higher, increasing the likelihood of unwanted sounds that affect the purity of the signal.
Telos® amplification technology significantly reduces the harmonic and intermodulation distortions by improving the linearity of all stages. Telos® uses a higher bandwidth circuit with minimal group delay distortion inside the audio bandwidth.
So clean.
The new Goldmund Telos 670 Integrated Amplifier is shipping now and comes in at $26,000 which is, as the press release notes, $13,000 less than “its big brother” the Telos 690 integrated amp.
Here’s the press release from Rhythm Distribution:
