Burmester 088 Preamplifier
The 088 preamplifier is simple and intuitively operated for a relaxed listening experience. Following the long-established Burmester tradition, it perfectly melds high-quality sound with an attractive visual experience.
Features:
- 5 balanced inputs (XLR), can be used as unbalanced inputs via adapter if required;
- Seamless integration into home theatre systems using the surround thruput terminal;
- Module slot for one optional module: Optional modules Phono MC/MM (sym XLR), Line (RCA), DAC (USB, RCA);
- Input sensitivity can be adjusted individually for every input, therefore disruptive volume leaps when the inputs are changed are avoided;
- Phase reversal of inputs for a flexible connection of devices with other devices with differing PIN configuration of the XLR-plugs;
- Output amplification for MAIN OUT selectable between LOW and HIGH for the adjustment for connected power amps or active speakers;
- Global SETUP-Menu for individual adjustment of basic functions: Input sensitivity adjustable for every input from -6dB to +12dB; Custom labeling of programmable inputs; Serial number can be read out in display if desired; Operating controls can be switched off on the device in order to prevent maloperation (child-proof lock); Factory settings can be restored at any time;
- Brightness of display can be adjusted in four steps, display-off function;
- Power controlling of other Burmester devices, Master/Slave via DC IN/OUT;
- Vibration-isolating feet with carbon fiber clips for ideal resonance decoupling;
- Fully DC-coupled without distorting capacitors in the signal path for a precise bass reproduction;
- Dual-mono design for maximum channel separation;
- Wear-free Burmester CMOS technology for switching inputs;
- BurLink for external control via RS-232 and USB as standard.

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.
