Goldmund Introduces the New 590 NEXTGEN II and TELOS 7 NEXTGEN Integrated Amplifiers

Goldmund Introduces the New 590 NEXTGEN II and TELOS 7 NEXTGEN Integrated Amplifiers

The following is a press relase issued by Goldmund.

January 21, 2020 – For decades, Goldmund’s amplification technology has been acclaimed by music lovers worldwide. Over time, the various models in the Telos line have been meticulously refined. Year after year, circuit after circuit, the characteristics that give Goldmund units more transparency, energy, linearity, openness and stability, have been successfully maintained and improved. As with the other Telos amplifiers, the 590 NextGen II integrated also benefits from the latest developments of the NextGen circuit technology. With 215 Wrms per channel (on 8 Ω / 1 % THD), this model provides outstanding dynamics and exerts strict control over speaker drive units, producing an exceptionally tight, detailed yet delicate sound. The Telos 590 NextGen II benefits from considerably improved thermal dissipation of the ultra-linear transistors used for the amplification. This is achieved thanks to the combination of two heat-sinks and an aluminum conductive strut that cancels the need for a dissipation fan. The result is a particularly quiet stereo amplifier with a constant optimal temperature, even at increasing sonic levels. Two toroidal transformers give it the extreme speed demanded by the Goldmund Telos technology standards. A high performance D to A circuit improves its dynamics and resolution, making it both clear and spatial. The ideal blend of technology along with our engineers’ passion for excellence makes the Telos 590 NextGen II an impressive amplifier that guarantees enduring sonic joy and pride of ownership.

Goldmund Introduces the New 590 NEXTGEN II and TELOS 7 NEXTGEN Integrated Amplifiers

Telos 7 Nextgen

The Telos 7 NextGen is one of the most spectacular Integrated Stereo Power Amplifiers currently delivered by Goldmund. It can drive any high-end passive stereo speaker system with true ease, providing the strongest energy level as well as a truly spatial, clear, and beautifully detailed sound image. The Telos 7 NextGen circuitry is the latest enhancement of our 32-year old circuit that made quite a few generations of audiophiles consider Goldmund the Master of Power Amplifier design. Several R&D developers have added layers of subtle evolution to this schematic, building one of the longest continuity stories in audio design art. With multiple inputs, the TELOS 7 NextGen can connect to a wide range of digital and analog sources. Its simple user interface makes it not only a work of art but also a companion to those music lovers seeking an introduction to Goldmund fidelity.
