Bellavista Signature

 Italian Prestige Rigid Turntable 

 

Congratulations 

Thank you for having purchased a

 

GOLDENOTE® product. 

 

 

Introduction 

 

 With GOLDENOTE® products you enter 

a new dimension. GOLDENOTE® is the 

new way of listening to music. 

GOLDENOTE® is a range of products of 

prestigious and sophisticated Italian 

design featuring unique and innovative 

technical and aesthetic characteristics.  

The Bellavista Signature is the top class 

turntable of the rigid series.   

The turntable is carefully made of parts 

exclusively manufactured for Goldenote 

with the highest standards and quality materials to reach a superior sonic performance.  

The turntable features a double 20mm thick black acrylic plinth decoupled with six bronze spacers 

cylinders.  

The turntable also features a 20mm thick platter made of solid black polyvinyl.  Underneath the 

platter there are 9 gold plated weights to increase the peripheral mass of the platter. As such, the 

rotation stability is improved. 

The Bellavista Signature also employs a high precision aluminium  pulley to guarantee perfect 
speed capability. 
 
The innovative platter bearing/spindle system, much larger and longer than the usual ones, is 

based on a bronze external threaded bearing that ensures perfect on axis alignment.  Both are 

electronically machined  and polished to tolerances smaller than 1/100 of a millimeter, to achieve 

exceptional sound performance.   

Also, at the bottom of the platter bronze bearing a special threaded bearing made of Arnite© (one 

of the hardest and toughest self lubricant plastic polymers) allows for a smoother turntable 

rotation and eventually a VTA adjustment normally available only through the tone arm setting. 

 

 

All Goldenote products are proudly designed, manufactured and assembled in Italy 100%
