The Burmester 101 integrated amplifier exemplifies the perfect combination of efficient power amplification with an analog power supply. It's remarkable power reserves provide the warm and balanced sound that Burmester is famous for. With a smooth, yet detailed sound even at low playback levels. The addition of balanced preamp outputs open the door to using the 101 as pure preamplifier by adding separate power amplifiers at a later date. Features Pre-amp output High damping factor enables effortless control of any speaker over the full frequency range Head phone jack (at the front) Stable at any load over the entire frequency range Balanced circuit layout Switchable „Smooth“ function A built-in protective circuit outside of the signal path monitors the 101 during operation with regard to overheating, DC offset and overloading Massive binding posts for speaker cables (best performance with spade lugs!) Display on/off BurLink with RS-232 (optional) Design The elegant and simple chromed front panel is augmented by a row of glossy polished buttons for input selection. A striking design element is the solid turn knob for volume control. Sound-wise and stylistically the 101 integrated Amplifier is the ideal partner for the 102 CD player. Handmade Burmester is famous for excellent amplifier technology. That was reason enough for the Burmester development team to accept the challenge of developing its own solution for Class D amplification. This proprietary Class D module is carefully assembled by hand in their Berlin factory and integrated with the other sub-assemblies.
