The Giglio turntable combines elegant Italian design with advanced technology, featuring a high-density POM platter and a 12V synchronous motor with micro-controller for precise, vibration-free audio playback. Made from premium walnut wood and including a complete setup with a tonearm and dust cover, it's a refined choice for audiophiles seeking both performance and aesthetics.
The Gold Note Giglio Turntable is an analogue miracle for fine listening that truly stands out from other turntables on the market. It combines the perfect balance of traditional design and cutting-edge technology, making it a must-have for any audiophile.
One of the standout features of the Giglio is its unique plinth design, inspired by the catenary curve. This not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also provides exceptional structural rigidity for precise musical experience. The lower plinth is made of hand-selected Italian materials, such as walnut wood, known for its elasticity and strength. This attention to detail and use of high-quality materials is a testament to the craftsmanship and dedication of Gold Note.
The Giglio also boasts a 33mm high-density POM platter, designed for optimal performance. Its pivot/well system ensures maximum precision and the hourglass-shaped pulley reduces wow & flutter and rumble. The 12-volt synchronous motor, specially developed by Gold Note, eliminates vibration and guarantees high motor torque for superior sound dynamics and resolution.
In addition to its impressive technical features, the Giglio also boasts a beautiful and powerful design. The plinth is carved from precious Italian walnut hardwood, providing both elegance and exceptional audio performances. This combination of beauty and technical perfection truly sets it apart from other turntables.
Furthermore, the Giglio comes with a full package including a B-5.1 tonearm and a hand-made removable dust cover made of plexiglass. This means it is ready to play right out of the box, making it a hassle-free addition to any high-end audio system.
Giglio sums up the history and ideas of Gold Note, in what is to all intents and purposes considered one of the company’s best creations: it reinterprets the classic turntable shape using high-quality materials and technical solutions that combine respect for tradition and cutting-edge technology. The plinth design is inspired by the catenary curve, one of the great inventions of the Renaissance, giving it greater structural rigidity and offering a surprisingly precise musical experience.
The lower plinth is made of selected Italian materials, such as walnut wood, which provides exceptional elasticity, strength and solidity. The wooden base rests on three elegant adjustable feet made of anodised aluminium.
Giglio features a 33 mm high-density POM platter and a pivot/well system designed for maximum precision. The hourglass-shaped pulley allows for constant belt movement and significantly reduces wow & flutter and rumble.
The 12-volt synchronous motor was specially developed to ensure perfect audio reproduction. Powered by a proprietary control system based on a Quadral-Core micro-processor, the motor eliminates vibration and guarantees high motor torque for the best performance in terms of sound dynamics and resolution. The power supply unit enables electronic control of the 33⅓rpm and 45rpm speed, allowing the set parameters to be memorised.
A creation inspired by our country’s great heritage and tradition which unites beauty and technical perfection in a unique music reproduction instrument.
Fine woods are chosen for their elevated stability and elasticity which provide Giglio with ideal structural characteristics and an unmistakable look.
Equipped with a 12V synchronous motor, driven by a proprietary power supply run by a micro-controller which electronically controls the velocity 33/45RPM.
Out of the box thanks to the full package offered with the turntable including B-5.1 tonearm and hand-made removable dust cover made of plexiglass.
