Gold Note Pianosa Turntable
The Pianosa follows the beauty and technical innovation of the new generation of turntable designed by Gold Note featuring unique musical qualities and the legacy of strong Tuscan origins.
The Pianosa features a 50mm curved plinth made of lacquered MDF or Harwood Walnut, quality materials chosen for their exceptional elasticity, strength and high density, being at the same time evocative of Tuscany landscape, one of the most recognisable places in the world, creating a strong union between the finished product and the skilful local craftsmen who made it by hand.

The curved plinth is precisely cut in the inner side to find the perfect tuning of the wood that is interfaced with a 3mm stainless steel board. The structure is completed with a 20mm thick black lacquered MDF top plinth, where the electronic board of the turntable is installed, thus lowering the frequency resonance.
The curved wooden plinth is the result of years of research at the Gold Note engineering labs in order to replace a bigger mass plinth of a more traditional rectangular shape structure; the extra rigidity given by the curves of the plinth allow a sophisticated technical design and a great exclusive look.
Thanks to our proprietary power control generator based on a Quadral-Core micro-controller, Pianosa can effectively control vibrations and deliver high torque for the greatest dynamic and resolution.
The Pianosa features the same 12Volt synchronous motor developed for Mediterraneo.
The Power Supply electronically controls the 33⅓rpm, the 45rpm modes and the fine speed adjustment storing the selection permanently in memory even when disconnected from the power.
The new perfectly polished hourglass motor pulley also allows the turntable belt to spin smoothly thus reducing the wow&flutter and noise as never before.
The 60mm long platter Spindle/bearing comes directly from the top quality design of the Mediterraneo; it is fully recessed into the Black Lacquered MDF top plinth in
order to keep the thick platter as closest as possible to the turntable structure to reduce turbulences generated by the rotation and achieving a virtual zero vibration point.

The platter is 23mm thick in black Polyvinyl, a very elastic but deaf material, it features an extraordinary ability to reduce vibrations while the high-mass helps the rotational stability.
The platter is designed to operate at only 3mm from the plinth. Such small platter/plinth interference minimise turbulences for the greatest noiseless functionality.
The choice of materials shows a dedication to the native ground that goes beyond the musical dimension of the product to create a truly unique experience.
Please Note: The Pianosa turntable doesn’t come with a Cartridge pre fitted. One must select a relevant Cartridge, to complement the Pianosa. Please contact us to discuss further options.
