Design And Performance - Gold Note MEDITERRANEO Bedienungsanleitung

| DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE

The sound delivered by our turntables is
the result of the synergy of a large number
of components. Your Mediterraneo features
refined details and technical solutions
developed to play your vinyl records to
perfection.
|
The main plinth is made of Italian Walnut
hardwood, it's 60mm thick and reinforced
with a 3mm stainless steel plate and
a 20mm acrylic plinth to provide an
extremely rigid structure, offering high
stability to prevent vibrations.
|
Using wood, stainless steel and acrylic
for the plinth offers unique advantages in
terms of energy dissipation leveraging the
unique characteristics of these high-quality
materials.
|
Three adjustable aluminium feet contribute
to the insulation of the structure eliminating
external vibrations while allowing perfect
levelling of the turntable.
|
Contributing to the stability of the
Mediterraneo, the platter is 45mm thick
and made of POM, a particularly deaf
polymer we chose to guarantee the ideal
balance between mass, speed control and
insulation.
|
The spindle is made of high-quality
stainless steel, a solid piece machined
with the utmost precision to clamp the
platter with the special conical shape
Split-Spindle™ we developed. The
spindle is 80mm long to ensure top-
class performance and features a large
longitudinal groove on its axis for the
lubricating oil to run constantly. With its
unique design and the perfect spindle/
housing ratio, the spindle distributes
the inertial energy along its entire axis
completely cancelling lateral friction and
preventing the pendulum effect of the
platter.
|
Particular attention and care went into
designing the spindle housing, which is
recessed to allow the platter to be located
as close as possible to the turntable
plinth in order to minimise potential
air turbulence and guarantee perfectly
controlled rotation and speed.
| The bronze bearing is finely machined and
rectified to guarantee smooth rotation
and stability to the spindle, along with the
custom platter bearing that is designed to
reduce potential noise.
|
The platter bearing is threaded on the
outside in order to be tightly locked
into the plinth on its own axis achieving
extremely precise coupling.
|
Our engineers have developed a custom
AC 12V micro-controlled motor fine-
tuned for accuracy, with 33
45rpm electronic speed control and pitch
adjustment. It delivers a flawless balance
of power and torque while operating in
complete silence.
