Technical background
GoldNote loudspeakers use a diamond-shaped ultra-rigid cabinet designed to eliminate all parallel internal wall surfaces — the primary source of standing-wave colouration. Premium Mundorf capacitors and Clarity Caps crossover components ensure transparent driver integration. SEAS drivers use ultra-light Nextel-treated paper cones for optimal transient response. The XS-85 three-way uses a dedicated 9" woofer per channel with a bottom-ported bass reflex system tuned for flat response from 30Hz, avoiding the common floor-standing compromise of trading low-frequency extension for dynamic headroom.
Design story
GoldNote's XS-85 and A-series speakers emerge from a decade of collaboration between the brand's acoustic engineers and Italian cabinet artisans in Tuscany. The diamond-shaped cabinet profile — an engineering solution to internal standing waves — also became the visual signature of the range. Each cabinet is finished by hand and paired with SEAS drivers chosen for their Nextel-treated paper cones; the crossover components are Mundorf and Clarity Caps, sourced for their transparency and long-term reliability.
