INTRODUCTION
GOLDMUND MIMESIS 20.7 D/A Converter
Goldmund was founded in 1978 and has ever since been dedicated to the accurate reproduction of
sound and image.
At Goldmund, we strive to lead in the creation, development and manufacture of the industry’s
most advanced technologies, including audio and video systems, home-networking and music
distribution.
The guiding principle at Goldmund is to produce a precise sound with the latest possible loss of
quality through the different stages. Goldmund will never adopt a technology before it is sufficiently
developed to satisfy the high quality standards we set. This is why Goldmund has often rejected
mainstream technologies and developed its own.
