Burmester 069 Reference CD Player
The Reference Line CD player 069 sets the ultimate technical standard for CD playback. Cutting edge technology combined with a proprietary belt-drive system form the technical basis for providing a musical experience of the highest order. The belt drive in a CD player provides complete decoupling of the pick-up system, in this case the laser, from any mechanical interference by the motor drive. As a result the data on the CD is read with ultimate precision, translating into the decoding of the smallest musical detail as well as complex acoustic structures.
Features:
- The modular design of the 069 makes it future proof for new digital formats to come;
- Burmester Reference Belt-drive CD transport is based on the CD-2 PRO laser technology;
- Total interference immunity through heavy triple-chamber design and a special housing base for additional mechanical de-coupling;
- Almost air-tight and sound-proof closure of the top-loading CD chamber by a precision sliding cover plate;
- Proprietary oscillator with minimal phase noise and a high thermal stability is located next to the SRC circuitry;
- EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference)-suppression filters in every stage;
- 069 is available with internal or external power supply in Reference Line housing;
- Overall filter capacitance of the external power supply is 279,000μF;
- Overall filter capacitance of the internal power supply is 60,000μF;
- MMI module slot: MMI slot for future extensions (inputs and outputs of virtually any kind);
- BurmesterLink: The entire unit can be controlled via the BurmesterLink system by using all possible home automation systems like Creston, AMX, PC and others;
- Frequency Response - <10 Hz - 48 kHz;
- Output resistance - 130 ohms;
- BurLink - Yes (RS-232 and USB control);
- Burmester X-Amp 2 - Yes;
- Remote In / Output - 1 / 1.

About brand
Burmester
Burmester was the first manufacturer to offer a fully DC-coupled signal path from pickup system to speaker. In 1987 Burmester developed the first remote controlled speaker adjustment with relay circuit resistors.Dieter Burmester brought the first belt-driven CD player to the market and still today holds the reference title for the tonal benefits of this innovative drive concept.Burmester is the first High-End sound manufacturer worlwide to be implemented in a luxury automobile. Bugatti, for whom Burmester developed an exclusive sound system over the course of three years, implemented the system in the model 16.4 Veyron. With a High-End surround sound system for the Porsche Panamera, Burmester set a new benchmark for automotive sound. Today, this award-winning system is available in all Porsche models.
