INTRODUCTION 

 
 

GOLDMUND REFERENCE II Turntable  

 

 

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.
