Mediterraneo is the pinnacle of Gold Note: a creation that redefines the traditional design of turntables through innovative shapes, technical solutions and quality materials to merge tradition and technology and achieve the best musical experience.

Mediterraneo shows Italian flair and distinction in its strong Tuscan origins, combining beauty with the greatest attention to technical perfection.

Manufactured by local craftsmen, the Mediterraneo is fully hand-made: designed with a 60mm curved plinth made of aged Italian Walnut chosen for its exceptional elasticity, strength and high-density, then coupled with a 20mm board made of polished acrylic and finally reinforced with a 3mm stainless steel board to lower the frequency resonance. Every detail of Mediterraneo enhance the turntable's ultra-rigid structure, the result is a refined technical innovation achieved through elegant, smooth lines.

BEAUTY AND INNOVATION MERGED IN ONE CREATION
The Power Supply of the 12 Volt Swiss Made synchronous motor of Mediterraneo guarantees the best audio performances. Electronic 33/45rpm controls and fine speed adjustments are automatically stored in the controller memory even when the turntable is unplugged from the AC.

Thanks to their proprietary power control generator based on Quadral-Core micro-controller, mediterraneo is able to reshape the AC wave and minimize all vibrations while improving torque power for the greatest dynamic and resolution.

The new hourglass-shaped pulley made of polished aluminium allows the belt to spinning as smoothly as possible, reducing the Wow & Flutter and the Rumble to extract and enjoy the finest details from the groove.

The 60mm platter Spindle/Bearing system is made with superior materials: the best-hardened chromed steel, polished bronze housing and ceramic ball bearings, all to guarantee a fantastic audio performance and ultra-low noise.

The recessed platter bearing, housed into the acrylic board, keeps the platter as close as possible to the structure increasing rotational stability and speed precision.

With a 45mm high-massplatter made of black Sustarin - a special material based on POM polymer, rigid but highly dampening at the same time - Mediterraneo is an extraordinary efficient in reducing vibrations and preserving great rotational stability.

DAMPENING STRUCTURE WITH TRIPLE PLINTHS
Mediterraneo has a multiple plinth design that features a 60mm wooden base in Italian Walnut hardwood slats and a 20mm board in polished Acrylic. The structure is reinforced by a 3mm thick stainless steel board to improve its exceptional dampening quality and stability.

INNOVATIVE POWER CONTROL
Mediterraneo is powered by their best proprietary control system developed on Quadral-Core micro-controller and enhanced with an audio converter: this power control reshapes the AC wave to perfectly drive the 12V synchronous motor and cancel all vibrations while improving motor torque to deliver the greatest dynamic and the finest detail.

HIGH MASS & DEAD DESIGN PLATTER
The high precision 45mm platter made of Sustarin and the bearing/spindle system are perfectly matched with ultra-strict tolerances. The spindle is made of rectified hardened and chromed Steel, the 4,3mm bearing is made of ceramic. These materials guarantee the best and smoothest rotation lowering even more the noise.

HIGH PRECISION SYSTEM
Featuring 60mm long platter bearing/spindle with the best coupling tolerance available on the market: the spindle is made of the hardest carbon rectified steel hardened to achieve perfect working fluidity.

The bearing system is made of polished bronze with a 1/100 mm tolerance to guarantee the smoothest platter rotation.
