Burmester 077 Pre-amplifier
In 2007, for the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the 777 preamplifier, Burmester introduced another preamplifier: the 077. Designed in the elegant tradition of Burmester, the 077 provides exquisite sound and a relaxed listening experience.
The corner stone of the worldwide success of the Burmester Audio system was set in 1977 with the launch of the legendary 777 preamplifiers. To celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2007 the company introduced another extraordinary preamplifier, the 077. Its self-adjusting phono stage can automatically compensate for any channel imbalances of pickup systems. The result is a more precise and extended soundstage. Additional attractions of this anniversary model are its X-Amp2 amplification stages and its control via the BurLink technology. Its exquisite sound and versatile functionality are an homage to the world-renowned high-end icon 808. Operating the 077 is intuitive and does not distract from a relaxed listening experience. Its visual appearance bespeaks the typical Burmester design language.
PRODUCT IMPRESSIONS
Detailed impressions of the 077
Instantly recognisable as a typical Burmester product, the 077 preamplifier makes use of characteristic design elements of the Reference Line.
MANUFACTURE
Design
The Reference Line housing of the 077 preamplifier impresses immediately with its outstanding manufacturing quality made out of a solid aluminium enclosure. The 077 rests on a special base with carbon fibre damping, which insulates it mechanically from any distortion of its outstanding signal processing capabilities. As an ultimate upgrade, Burmester offers an external power supply for the 077.
HANDMADE
In Berlin, the cutting-edge electronics of the 077 preamplifiers are carefully married to high-quality aluminium housing. The hand-assembled printed boards, the powerful X-Amp2 amplification stages, the XLR terminals and other hand-selected electronic components are expertly crafted into an audiophile work of art. The process of careful selection and assembly and thorough quality control also apply, of course, to the available optional output modules.
