Gold Note - Pianosa - Turntable

Step into a world where impeccable craftsmanship meets unparalleled sound with the Gold Note Pianosa Turntable—a masterpiece born of a rich lineage and a relentless pursuit of audio perfection.

The Pianosa, standing proudly among its illustrious siblings, the Mediterraneo and Giglio, represents the zenith of audio engineering, encapsulated within a body that exudes sophistication and elegance.

Infused with an extraordinary cocktail of outstanding materials and exacting technical prowess, it faithfully upholds the auditory credo inscribed in the DNA of every GN turntable, a testament to our unyielding commitment to sonic excellence mined from the depths of innovation and premium materials.

The heart of this acoustic marvel beats within its catenary curved plinth—each one a labour of love—handcrafted to perfection by the most skilled Italian wood artisans, available in either the classic warmth of Italian walnut hardwood or a sleek, modern black lacquered MDF.

The Pianosa does not just stand; it reigns in supreme rigidity, its wooden base lovingly merged with a 20mm thick MDF sheet and further emboldened by a 3mm stainless steel plate, ensuring an immovable foundation for pure, undistorted sound.

And as we look after the world that inspires our designs, each walnut turntable is coated with an eco-friendly varnish, preserving its beauty and our planet alike.

The sound that emanates from the Pianosa is nothing short of auditory alchemy, aided by electronics and materials descended from our flagship models that ensure a vibration-free experience and augmented torque for unmatched dynamism and razor-sharp audio detail.

The platter floats on our high-precision bearing/spindle assembly, famous for the minimal coupling tolerance that is our hallmark, backed by a rectified spindle and chromed ball bearing that together guarantee a quiescent rotation pure as the driven snow.

Technically, the Pianosa is as formidable as it is visually stunning, boasting impeccable specs that include near-zero wow and flutter, an exceptionally quiet rumble, and precise electronic speed control.

A dedicated 70 shores rectified NBR belt drives a high torque synchronous motor, turning a dampened poly-vinyl platter that partners perfectly with the Gold Note B-5.1 tonearm, to ensure every nuance and whisper of your favourite music is faithfully communicated.

This turntable does not just play records; it breathes life into them. Encased elegantly with a transparent dust cover and available in finishes that showcase Italian craftsmanship at its finest, your Pianosa can even be elevated further with upgrades like the external inductive power supply PST-10 and the B-7 Ceramic tonearm.

The Pianosa is not merely a turntable; it is the physical embodiment of our passion for purity in sound and design—a storied heritage spun into every detail, inviting you to a vinyl experience beyond compare.
