Turntables — Gold Note Valore 425 Plus

The Valore 425 Plus is a belt-drive turntable from Gold Note, built with a distinctive chromed-steel platter running on a 5mm ball bearing. The Valore 425 Plus brings Gold Note's considered engineering to an accessible analogue playback format.

Key specs that matter

Two speeds are supported - 33 and 45rpm. The chromed-steel platter runs on a 5mm ball bearing, chosen for favourable dimensional stability and smooth rotation. Wow and flutter is a solid 0.2%, with rumble at -75dB. At 425 x 160 x 360mm and 7.5kg, the Valore 425 Plus maintains a manageable footprint.

Sound and use context

Expect smooth, well-controlled rotation reflecting the solid 0.2% wow-and-flutter figure combined with the -75dB rumble specification, consistent with Gold Note's broader considered engineering standards.

Pairing

Buyers should confirm tonearm and cartridge compatibility directly with Gold Note or an authorised dealer to complete this turntable's analogue front end.

Alternatives

Gold Note's broader turntable catalogue offers alternatives for buyers wanting a different combination of features.
