GOLDMUND EPILOGUE 2 – Bass Speaker System 

 

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.
