Gold Note IS-1000 Integrated Amplifier/DAC/Streamer/Roon Ready/MQA Perfect! - REDUCED

Update - Reducing the price again, I'm having financial troubles and really need to sell this. It's a steal at this price, this is an excellent sounding piece of kit!

Up for sale is a perfect condition IS-1000 from Gold Note. I've only had it for a couple of months now (received mid August). It has been handled once, with cotton gloves. It is new in every way. The 10/10 rating is totally justified. Unfortunately, difficulties in life mean I have to sell this awesome all-in-one. It has it all - DAC, network streaming (Roon Ready), MQA decoding, MM and MC phone input. 125 watts at 8 Ohms, doubled to 250 in 4 Ohms. I have never had an amplifier that drives my 4 Ohm speakers with more authority. If you want everything in one tidy, nice looking Italian piece of beauty, look no further.

FYI, mine is the standard DAC option, not the upgraded listed in the specs.

Comes with everything originally included. Double box, manual, remote control, power cord, network cable, wifi antenna.

Look around on the net, there are a few reviews out there. They are all very good. Check my feedback, and buy with confidence. Shipping only to CONUS.
