Goldmund U-32 processor handles infinite channels, topologists rejoice

Escher Lego
We just love the excess of ultra high-end products, but the latest release of Goldmund's U-32 processor takes the cake. Whether your home theater exists in some kind of Escher-like alternate dimension or just needs to immerse its 50 occupants in sound, this piece of kit has got you covered -- because you'll need, like, infinite channels to do the job right. And that's exactly what the company is claiming for the U-32 -- infinite channel support, thanks to its (distinctly finite) onboard DSPs. No need to worry about the cost of the unit, either -- just consider the value on a dollar per channel metric, and you know nothing will ever top it. So what are you waiting for, value-shopper -- the spec bump that goes to infinity plus one?

Goldmund's $300,000 Epilogue Speaker System joins Media Room


Personally, we can only imagine what a $300,000 speaker setup sounds like. But you -- we know you're eager to pick up the Epilogue Speaker System (previous edition shown) and rub it in the faces of everyone else, right? Regardless of whether you answered that truthfully or not, Goldmund (those same cats who actually had the nerve to create a $17,000 Blu-ray player) has introduced the latest version of the aforesaid system, which will now be built specifically for integration into the Goldmund Media Room. Pretty though they may be, we have a sneaking suspicion you won't be getting much bang for your buck with these -- but then again, what do our virgin ears know, anyway?

Goldmund's Eidos 20 BD Blu-ray player costs $17k


At first glance, we didn't really believe anyone would create a Blu-ray player with a $16,900 sticker. Then we saw it was produced by Goldmund. Continuing its long heritage of offering up grossly overpriced wares for those with more money than sense, the firm is now trumpeting a Blu-ray player more pricey than most low-end automobiles -- and we're not even sure it's Profile 2.0. What we do know is that the Eidos 20 BD includes an AC-Curator power supply circuit, the outfit's own Magnetic Damper for lowering read errors and a chassis only a mother could love. To each his / her own, we guess.
