Burmester 218.....


I am glad to see Burmester is being talked about on these forums, they are superb gear in my opinion.

if you haven't had the chance to hear the 218 do yourself a favor and take a listen, I started my Burmester journey with a 956mk2, upgraded to a 911mk3, upgraded to the 216 and have now settled on the 218

going up a level with each amp they all got better, more dynamics, deeper/wider soundstage better control, you name it, drastically better.  the speed and dynamics of the 218 is as good as I have heard in quite some time

just wanted to share some of my journey and joy of owning Burmester, highly recommend.

@zuesman well I bit on it, I just called hifi centre in Vancouver, asked if they had a 216 or 218 on display/demo, guess what, they have sold a few but have never displayed them, special order only, fairytale over, you are an f'n liar.

an before you call BS on me, anyone can call them, they answered on 2nd ring and our convo lasted about 45 seconds, oh, im sure you dealt with the "other" Burmester dealer that's not listed on the Burmester site but has there products, get a life, now im officially done, I would be surprised if you even have a sim 861 and monitor audio speakers

ckr1969,

I already told you what store it was Go phone them and ask.

grislybutter,

I'm not doing any advertising for Sim so I can say anything I like.

ckr1969,

also the other store that has Burmester is liquid sound try calling them as well

ckr1969,

just so I can shut your mouth if you want give me your email address and I'll send you a picture of my system and I'll even name it for you right now, SIM audio p8 preamp, SIM audio 861 amplifier, esoteric P10 transport, Wyred4sound 10th anniversary DAC, monarchy audio upsampler, monitor audio platinum 200 ll and the internal wiring will be upgraded to OCC single crystal which is the best wire for audio on the market, far superior to anything OFC you probably don't even know that lol, and all the wiring is neotech Sahara rectangular OCC copper and the power cords are all The Grand rectangular OCC copper. and if you'd like you can go see a picture of it on Thomas and Friends systems of the world part 2 and it's the second system that he reviewed on that video, but that picture still has my w8 because I still hadn't upgraded to the 861
