Burmester 111 Reference Music Center Player
The design of this product highlight incorporates avantgarde elements but still retains the timeless form language and clear lines for which Burmester is famed. The Reference Musiccenter not only excels in its outstanding sound quality but also in its ability to process even very large volumes of data extremely quick. When a title is selected, it is available within a fraction of a second. The 111 Musiccenter can be controlled either via the apparatus, by means of a web browser, or via an iPad, using the specially developed Burmester app. It is also possible to stream music via WLAN.
The 111 Musiccenter is a veritable all-round performer, whose capabilities go far beyond the functions of a mere server. Thanks to its fully functional preamplifier unit, it serves as the central element of your sound system. Music connoisseurs have as many as three analogue and six digital inputs at their disposal, enabling them to connect a wide range of sound sources. The preamplifier section is galvanically isolated from the server section to prevent potential interference from the server unit affecting the analogue circuitry containing the integrated DA converter. Like all Burmester preamplifiers, it consists of balanced circuitry with a fully DC-coupled signal path and no coupling capacitors getting in the way of the signal. The sophisticated analogue X-Amp 2 output stages obtain their signal from a Reference D/A converter section, guaranteeing a sound which is highly defined and musical.
