The Burmester 082 Classic integrated amplifier is part of the Classic Line and is derived from Burmester's high-end power amplifier designs, offering a warm, powerful yet detailed sound through fully balanced, DC-coupled amplification stages and an oversized power supply. It provides a versatile connection suite with 4 balanced XLR and 2 unbalanced RCA line inputs, balanced and unbalanced pre-outs, surround/home-theater throughput, BurLink control, and a rear-panel 6.3mm headphone output, making it suitable for both stereo and home cinema integration. Rated at 100W per channel into 8 ohms and 150W into 4 ohms, with a wide bandwidth of approximately 3Hz to 100kHz and very high damping factor, the 082 delivers stable drive and precise control even into demanding loudspeakers. User-oriented features include balance and tone controls (both bypassable), adjustable input sensitivity, programmable wake-up volume, display on/off, remote control capability, and trigger functions.
