[edit] Corporate history

[edit] Goldmund technology

Goldmund's most recent amplifier technology is a "Job5" circuit (from Jobsys). This amplifier technology is said to have high speed, meaning it has a very wide bandwidth. It is also claimed to have low distortion.

Goldmund's most recent digital D/A technology is Alize4.

Goldmund "mechanical grounding" technology couples vibration producing components, such as the power transformer to the chassis supports.
