For the first time ever, the DAC behaviour can be changed to adapt to the music played without modifying the audio signal and thus maintaining the highest audio quality, acting on the deemphasis, the low-pass digital filters and the amount of power applied to the circuits. Such profiles can be selected in real-time during music playback delivering a unique listening experience and ease of use thanks to the clear menu on the TFT display. It\u2019s time to enjoy the unprecedented listening pleasure that only the DS-10 can offer you. EASY TO INSTALL, EASY TO SET UPThe DS-10 is a plug & play DAC that is easy and quick to set up in your system. Once it\u2019s connected to your network, it only needs a power amplifier or some active speakers and you are ready to start listening. All the functions available on the DS-10 are fully controlled through the SKC (Single Knob Control) and the dedicated App GN Control. With its large 2.8\u201d TFT display you can quickly check all the functions of the DS-10 and control it using the dedicated App and our SKC (Single Knob Control) located on the front panel, or the Gold Note remote control. Our easy to use GN Control App displays all metadata, cover and other information registered on the track as well as the real resolution format on your smartphone or tablet (available for free on iOS and Android). DURABLE DESIGN 100% MADE IN ITALYOur products are designed to ensure the best experience of use and the DS-10 features a state-of-the- art mechanical structure made of solid machined steel and thick aluminium. The high-quality materials used guarantee low-frequency resonance, feedback vibrational control and low magnetic inertial field.Thanks to the unique and innovative Gold Note mod- ular design, the DS-10 can drive PSU-10 EVO, the dedicated external inductive power supply, to en- hance its performance even more. If you are after uncompromising quality, check with your local dealer the availability of PSU-10 EVO and arrange a listen- ing session.SEE THE DS-10 IN YOUR LIVING ROOMClick on the link from your smartphone or tablet and tap the AR icon to see the DS-10 right in front of you.

For the first time ever, the DAC behaviour can be changed to adapt to the music played without modifying the audio signal and thus maintaining the highest audio quality, acting on the deemphasis, the low-pass digital filters and the amount of power applied to the circuits. Such profiles can be selected in real-time during music playback delivering a unique listening experience and ease of use thanks to the clear menu on the TFT display. It\\u2019s time to enjoy the unprecedented listening pleasure that only the DS-10 can offer you. EASY TO INSTALL, EASY TO SET UPThe DS-10 is a plug & play DAC that is easy and quick to set up in your system. Once it\\u2019s connected to your network, it only needs a power amplifier or some active speakers and you are ready to start listening. All the functions available on the DS-10 are fully controlled through the SKC (Single Knob Control) and the dedicated App GN Control. With its large 2.8\\u201d TFT display you can quickly check all the functions of the DS-10 and control it using the dedicated App and our SKC (Single Knob Control) located on the front panel, or the Gold Note remote control. Our easy to use GN Control App displays all metadata, cover and other information registered on the track as well as the real resolution format on your smartphone or tablet (available for free on iOS and Android). DURABLE DESIGN 100% MADE IN ITALYOur products are designed to ensure the best experience of use and the DS-10 features a state-of-the- art mechanical structure made of solid machined steel and thick aluminium. The high-quality materials used guarantee low-frequency resonance, feedback vibrational control and low magnetic inertial field.Thanks to the unique and innovative Gold Note mod- ular design, the DS-10 can drive PSU-10 EVO, the dedicated external inductive power supply, to en- hance its performance even more.

For the first time ever, the DAC behaviour can be changed to adapt to the music played without modifying the audio signal and thus maintaining the highest audio quality, acting on the deemphasis, the low-pass digital filters and the amount of power applied to the circuits. Such profiles can be selected in real-time during music playback delivering a unique listening experience and ease of use thanks to the clear menu on the TFT display. It\u2019s time to enjoy the unprecedented listening pleasure that only the DS-10 can offer you. EASY TO INSTALL, EASY TO SET UPThe DS-10 is a plug & play DAC that is easy and quick to set up in your system. Once it\u2019s connected to your network, it only needs a power amplifier or some active speakers and you are ready to start listening. All the functions available on the DS-10 are fully controlled through the SKC (Single Knob Control) and the dedicated App GN Control. With its large 2.8\u201d TFT display you can quickly check all the functions of the DS-10 and control it using the dedicated App and our SKC (Single Knob Control) located on the front panel, or the Gold Note remote control.
