German company Burmester calls its new Burmester 232 integrated amplifier “swiss army knife” for audio. The model offers high fashionability and optional offers a full set of streaming functions.
At 8 Ohm load, the Burmester 232 integrated amplifier offers 2 x 110 W, when using speakers with a resistance of 4 Ohms, the power increases to 150 W per channel, and the peak power at 4 Ohms reaches 200 W.
Optionally, the model supports the installation of DAC boards (with a fully functional streamer with support for TIDAL Connect, Spotify Connect and Roon Ready and Wi-Fi streaming) and Phono MC, and two balanced XLR inputs guarantee connection flexibility. The 6.3 mm headphone stereo jack is not forgotten either.
An interesting feature of the amplifier is the new Burmester rotary control (HaptiControl) with innovative haptic feedback technology. As the company writes, "the haptic feedback adjusts according to the respective functions, including features such as rotational resistance, number, and spacing of clicks" - a very original solution!
The Burmester 232 offers an exceptionally low distortion level of 0.0048% and a damping factor of over 1,000.
