TUBE-1012 & TUBE-1006 are the best way to improve even further the Gold Note sources reaching a new level of performance through the Class A 12 or 6 tubes output stages.
Gold Note products are all solid-state designs, capable of great quality, control and definition providing outstanding realism in recreating the musical event. The idea behind designing TUBE-1012 & TUBE-1006 was to offer the quality of the sound of the tubes to every product to achieve the best of the two technologies, Solid State and Tube in perfect synergy. Our proprietary Totem-Pole Output Stage design, with six independent stages per single tube, provides ultra-wide bandwidth response and the lowest distortion to the audio signal. TUBE-1012 & TUBE-1006 are easy to connect and control, they also feature a dedicated MUTE button for maximum convenience.
