Gold Note’s All-In-One solution draws on more than twenty years of applied research to offer the market a device capable of producing a sound that can stand up to any comparison.
The IS-1000 MkII combines a powerful AB class integrated amplifier, a MM/MC phono preamplifier, a Hi-End DAC and a high-resolution Streamer into a single source.
The AB class amplifier with 125W per 8Ω @1kHz per channel ensures a pure sound, vivid dynamics and the ability to reproduce every detail. The IS-1000 MkII also offers a wide range of digital and analogue inputs to ensure total control, as well as the freedom to connect multiple devices. With the IS-1000 MkII and a pair of speakers, it is possible to fully enjoy high-definition music right at home.

BOOSTER

The Booster is a feature designed to reproduce the lower range of frequencies with power and control. It works as a custom equalisation, increasing the gain around 50Hz to provide a richer and more full-bodied sound. The 50Hz frequency has been chosen since lower frequencies are more difficult to obtain with small speakers.
The Booster provides a richer and more full-bodied sound, for better realism and dynamic. It’s particularly useful in case of speakers that require more energy in the bass frequencies, for night-time listening at lower volumes, or even to achieve a more realistic headroom. The Booster is completely by-passed when set to OFF, applied to 50% when set to 1, applied to 100% when set to 2.
