BX100
Loudspeaker
The 4-way floorstanding speaker serves as a gateway to a vibrant world of music, where sound and emotion form a harmonious symbiosis. The BX100 creates the perfect conditions for an immersive acoustic experience that resonates deeply. Its unmatched adaptability combines first-class sound with configurable design options and a new enclosure concept, making it a stylish focal point in any living space.
IMPRESSIONS
With a passion for the finest detail.
The high clarity, transparency and precision of the BX100 speaker is reflected in a wide, deep soundstage and an accurate frequency balance.
Appearance
The aesthetics of the BX100 transforms the speaker into a minimalist and modern design object within the living space. Its surfaces set a new level in terms of visual integration with the home environment. Custom-developed special coatings present a i pressive finish, giving the speaker an unmistakably high-quality appeal, marked by gentle reflections and an impressive sense of depth. The standard range of finishes includes timeless finishes such as white and black (each available in either matte or glossy versions) as well as the familiar medium grey hue from other Burmester speaker models.
Highlights & Features
The BX100 speaker impresses with its exceptional spatiality and an expanded ‘sweet spot’. Combined with its agile and precise reproduction, it creates an all-enveloping, dynamic listening experience.
+
4-Way Principle
Ensures more precise and wide frequency coverage, reduces distortion, and thereby improves overall sound quality.
+
Freestanding Air-Motion Transformer
Promotes an open, airy and balanced sound with a larger ‘sweet spot’.
+
Lossless Internal Wiring
High-purity Burmester copper strands with a large diameter of up to 10mm² are used throughout the BX100.
+
Sidefiring Bass Units
Allows flexible adaptation to the room acoustics and ensures balanced and dynamic bass.
+
‘Invisible’ Midrange and Bass Drivers
Aesthetic integration into the living environment without compromising bass power and precise reproduction in the midrange frequencies.
+
Optional Front Cover
Customizable in the living space by optionally covering the midrange drivers without compromising the sound quality.
+
Bi-Amping Terminal
Bridged with copper, the terminal ensures a clear signal path.
+
In-house Developed Membranes
Innovative drive unit membranes made from various materials achieve the highest level of sound fidelity.
+
Highly Flexible Color Customizations
Handpicked acoustic fabrics offer maximum flexibility to perfectly match the speaker to the room interior.
+
Special Cone Damping
Lossless signal transmission through dedicated enclosure chambers for all drivers.
AMT Tweeter
X for Experience.
The freestanding arrangement of our AMT and the absence of a baffle in the high-frequency range reduces the effective radiating surface of the tweeter. As the sound from the AMT is evenly distributed in all directions, the sound quality remains consistently high, even outside the sweet spot.
Air-Motion-Transformer
Tweeter
The use of an Air-Motion-Transformer (AMT) tweeter is a fundamental element of
Burmester’s distinctive sound precision. In the BX100, the AMT is placed in a specially designed freestanding configuration. This arrangement ensures homogeneous radiation behavior. The music appears to naturally radiate from the speaker, allowing listeners to benefit from an expanded sweet spot and impressive spatiality.
With In-house Developed Membrane
Midrange Driver
Optimized membranes are crucial for sound quality. These are made from a carbon fiber-polypropylene mix, which is extremely lightweight while offering high internal damping. This combination enables the membrane to follow the music signal with the utmost precision and faithfully reproduce complex signals. Particularly noteworthy is the midrange driver, which is equipped with a highly powerful magnet system.
Invisible Side firing
Bass Units
Two 26 cm diameter powerful bass drivers are used in the BX100—a truly majestically effective duo. Practically lossless internal wiring that transports the signal with surgical precision and unmatched purity is another key element in revealing subtle sound details.
Finest Nuances
True Engineering Mastery
The construction of the BX100 enclosure plays a central role in its extraordinary sound precision, a testament to unparalleled craftsmanship. Its vibration-dampening architecture masterfully minimizes unwanted resonances, bringing each note to life with breathtaking clarity. A groundbreaking feature in Burmester’s sound technology is the absence of a traditional baffle in the AMT area. The housing itself is reinforced with additional bracing to prevent vibration, thus ensuring the pure essence of the music is transmitted. The chassis is meticulously connected to the AMT housing with intense pre-tension forces to ensure optimal energy transfer and create a lasting, secure connection.
Design Approach
The design language of the BX100 is inspired by Burmester’s design DNA, yet heralds an unmistakable individuality. With its gentle, almost organic lines, the model is crafted to seamlessly integrate into a variety of living environments. The freestanding, intentionally staged AMT draws attention to the heart of the design, adding aesthetic emphasis. Another highlight is the variety of configuration options. From the customizable waist, which can be designed harmoniously or contrastingly, to the cleverly integrated sound adjustment options, the BX100 offers maximum flexibility – both visually and acoustically.
