Product Description
The Burmester 077 is one of the finest preamplifiers available today. With external power supply.
In 2007, for the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the 777 preamplifier, Burmester introduced another preamplifier: the 077. Designed in the elegant tradition of Burmester, the 077 provides exquisite sound and a relaxed listening experience.
The corner stone of the worldwide success of Burmester Audiosysteme was set in 1977 with the launch of the legendary 777 preamplifier. To celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2007 the company introduced another extraordinary preamplifier, the 077. Its self-adjusting phono stage can automatically compensate for any channel imbalances of pickup systems. The result is a more precise and extended soundstage. Additional attractions of this anniversary model are its X-Amp2 amplification stages and its control via the BurLink technology. Its exquisite sound and versatile functionality are an homage to the world-renowned high-end icon 808. Operating the 077 is intuitive and does not distract from a relaxed listening experience. Its visual appearance bespeaks the typical Burmester design language.
The Reference Line housing of the 077 preamplifier impresses immediately with its outstanding manufacturing quality made out of a solid aluminum enclosure. The 077 rests on a special base with carbon fiber damping, which insulates it mechanically from any distortion of its outstanding signal processing capabilities. As an ultimate upgrade, Burmester offers an external power supply for the 077.
In our Berlin manufacture, the cutting-edge electronics of the 077 preamplifier are carefully married to the high-quality aluminum housing. The hand-assembled printed boards, the powerful X-Amp2 amplification stages, the XLR terminals and other hand-selected electronic components are expertly crafted into an audiophile work of art. The process of careful selection and assembly and thorough quality control also apply, of course, to the available optional output modules.

Brand
Burmester
Burmester Audiosysteme, founded in 1977 by musician and engineer Dieter Burmester, designs and manufactures high-end audio components. Based in Berlin, the company has built a reputation for precision engineering and detailed sound reproduction. Burmester products are assembled by hand and feature distinctive design elements like polished chrome finishes and aluminum enclosures.
The company’s goal has remained the same since day one: deliver sound that feels as lifelike and dynamic as a live performance. Burmester’s lineup includes amplifiers, preamps, digital sources, and speakers across three product tiers: Classic, Reference, and Signature. These systems are known for their ability to combine technical precision with musicality. Rather than chasing trends, Burmester sticks to proven engineering principles and long product life cycles.
One example is the Burmester 100 phono preamplifier, which offers analog purity and digital flexibility. With two fully configurable inputs, precision-milled aluminum construction, and a built-in A/D converter, users can play vinyl through analog systems or archive it digitally. The 100 includes selectable impedance, gain, and equalization settings, giving listeners full control over their signal path.
In addition to home audio, Burmester develops custom sound systems for luxury automotive brands, including Porsche and Mercedes-Benz. These systems are tuned specifically for each vehicle’s interior. Whether in a living room or a car, Burmester focuses on delivering reliable, transparent sound that reflects the original recording as closely as possible.
