The GOLDMUND exclusive "Mechanical grounding".

In the GOLDMUND TELOS 600 amplifier, GOLDMUND has, as in other of its Ultimate Line
components, fully implemented an optimized vibration evacuation path. This is called by
GOLDMUND: "Mechanical Grounding". The perfect adjustment of this evacuation provides
the Telos 600 with an extraordinary dynamic capability and transparency, especially on low
efficiency speakers.

To get all the benefits of this design, the TELOS 600 must be located on a very rigid support,
or better directly on the floor, to be directly coupled with the building’s rigid construction. Try
various locations until you find the most rigid one. Avoid any decoupling material, carpet
especially, even between the furniture and the floor. Use the four pin-point feet to couple
the amplifier to the supporting furniture or to the floor.

With a very top system, the sonic improvement when the proper grounding is found is
obvious and worth the effort.
