The Gold Note IS-1000 in mesmerizing gold finish is finally on the way to Mono and Stereo for the review with the latest updated with the latest upgrade as described in the following press release…
“Gold Note – the Italian High-End Audio manufacturer based in Florence – is introducing a new powerful firmware for its Super integrated amplifier IS-1000 which allows higher audio performance and greater user experience.
“Gold Note’s IS-1000 super integrated amplifier is a complete High-End stereo system enclosed in a beautiful aluminum chassis carved in bold Italian style. A radical new audio amplifier concept, the first real All-In-One product designed to offer incomparable High-End audio performance featuring the highest level of connectivity to internet and analog source available.
IS-1000 is an advanced fully integrated amplifier that redefines the way music playback is experienced to achieve a new pinnacle in High-End audio, seamlessly merging a Preamplifier, a Power Amplifier, a Phono Preamp, a DAC and a Streamer in a unique, complete source.
With the knowledge and the experience developed in over 20 years of research, in 2017 Gold Note was able to offer an all-in-one solution powered by the most advanced technologies and components to achieve true audiophile quality sound.
Gold Note now offers a firmware update to everyone who already owns an IS-1000 which pays respect to user friendliness and state- of-the-art technology for even better audio performance. The update – free of charge – will provide the following features:
1. To make everybody’s use easier the volume is now expressed in a 0-100 graphic.
2. The volume control now becomes bi-directional always working in analogue mode even when playing any streaming service such as Roon, Tidal, Qobuz, Deezer, Airplay, etc… Adjusting the volume from the IS-1000 front panel knob the App will react by replicating exactly the same volume setting of the amplifier, that means IS-1000 always guarantees the best performance by over jumping the entire digital control whatever play mode is used!
The new App, available for iPhone and iPad, allows controlling all the IS-1000 inputs and options. That means: hands free from your standard IR remote control.
The new efficient and clever solution lets you control the IS-1000 while the display is replicated on the phone and tablet assuring the best user experience. Therefore you can control the unit fast and easy from everywhere only using your mobile devices.
