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.

Zeusman’s system is pretty midfi. He has no business, pedigree, or understanding to be disrupting a thread about true hifi stuff like Burmester.

thecarpathian,

that's what happens when you're in a good union, I was making $25 an hour back in 2000, and my last year before retirement I was making $35 an hour in 2021.

Ah, I see.  That explains it.  The most you can afford is the Sims gear.  Hey, you gotta make do and do the best you can with the financial means that are available to you, such as they are.

I make more than that and still can't afford it. I guess that's what happens when you have a mortgage, kids, medical insurance, household expenses, etc. instead of living in your mom and dad's basement.

I’m surprised it hasn’t been removed.
