Audio Quality That Captivates

Despite its extensive digital capabilities, the Burmester 232 maintains its commitment to analog excellence. The amplifier’s sound profile is characterized by warmth, fullness, and remarkable detail, embodying the sonic ideal that Burmester amplifiers are known for. High-quality operational amplifiers facilitate the seamless passage of music signals while minimizing any detrimental effects on sound quality.

At the heart of the 232 lies a robust transformer that delivers consistent power across various speaker setups. Its dual mono design minimizes electrical and magnetic coupling between channels, drastically reducing the risk of crosstalk. This engineering ensures a stable, sharply defined stereo image and precise audio reproduction.

Modular Versatility

The 232 can function as a pure integrated amplifier while also adeptly managing both digital and analog sources. Its modularity allows for easy upgrades and customization, ensuring the amplifier evolves with the user’s needs. The new D/A converter module not only excels in conversion tasks but also processes audio streams from various sources, including popular streaming services.

For vinyl enthusiasts, the phono module draws from Burmester’s heritage in analog signal processing, delivering exceptional quality that bridges the gap between classical and contemporary audio.

Aesthetic Design

The Burmester 232 is the inaugural product showcasing the brand’s new aesthetic design philosophy. Its elegant lines and harmonious surfaces create a sculptural presence that enhances any room. The innovative heat sink profile has been meticulously designed for thermal optimization, ensuring performance is elevated without compromising on style.

The amplifier’s base concept contributes to its lightweight appearance, while the interplay of matte and glossy finishes adds a touch of sophistication. This design ethos extends across Burmester’s product lines, embodying both technical excellence and aesthetic appeal.

Simplified Control Concept

Burmester has reimagined the control interface of the 232, merging traditional operation with modern technology. The new control app, paired with the device’s human-machine interface (HMI), offers streamlined navigation and reduced operating steps. A mirrored spy glass display fades into the background when not in use, maintaining a clean and minimalist aesthetic.

The front panel features touch sensors that only activate when needed, further enhancing the device’s understated elegance. The monochrome display supports various characters, accommodating languages such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Russian.

Innovative Rotary Encoder

The central control element of the 232 is the newly designed rotary encoder, which incorporates advanced haptic feedback technology. This versatile control allows users to navigate through inputs, adjust volume, and even power the device on and off with a tactile experience tailored to each function. From fine adjustments to heavy detents, the encoder adapts to the user’s needs, ensuring a personalized operating experience.

Future-Proof Connectivity

The 232 is equipped with a powerful Single Board Computer (SBC) module, serving as the device’s communication hub. Featuring Gigabit LAN, WiFi, and Bluetooth capabilities, the amplifier is designed for future-proofing with the possibility of accommodating new standards.

The inclusion of USB interfaces ensures compatibility with various operating systems, allowing for seamless playback from multiple sources. The SBC’s core logic application efficiently manages all operations, ensuring optimal sound quality and a smooth user experience.

I made short movies with my stuffed animals as a kid, since then I knew from a young age I wanted to be a videographer. My parents always said I had a great eye for video/photo, so I made my job out of it. Now I make professional corporate video's. I love to learn all about new gadgets and electronics that come to the market, that's why I write/edit for "Best Of High End".
