Is Burmester 232 worth the price?


Just bought a Burmester 232 integrated amplifier for a hefty price tag. Similar priced models like Accuphase E800 are available for half off on eBay.

 

Did I make a good decision or should I have gone with Accuphase or Esoteric? Pointers are greatly appreciated. Why is Burmester considered ultra high end?

@macg19 @ckr1969 I would say the Burnester 232 s the best purchase of my life in terms of raw  electronics quality with marantz sr 8015, Focal Kanta 3s and LG G5 being close seconds. The Japs and he Germans are the best electronics engineers in personal experience.

@madhusudan_ramaswamy We stopped saying Japs sometime in the 80s, but there you are in 2025 using what is now widely considered a racial slur. And, sadly, you're impervious to sarcasm

Wow. I don’t always agree with Devin but in this case I do 1000%.

Hopefully you are just too lazy to type Japanese. 

But in any any case, you started this thread with a rhetorical question, mentioned you drive a New Burmester equipped Mercedes 5 times, disregarded any advice from those that you purportedly elicited advice from, patted yourself on the back for being a man of action and of course making the correct decisions, and then closed with telling a forum member to get a life.

 Excellent work. Welcome to AG.
