Offered is „Burmester 102“ by Burmester as second-hand device from the category „CD Player“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2968514930 ends on 21.12.2026 at 19:19 o'clock.
New, the Burmester 102 was priced around €5,300–€5,500, with current retail listings reaching about €5,990. At €3,400, this used example lands exactly on the median of three comparable listings—neither a bargain nor ambitious, but a fair market price.
It remains a compelling player for a system built around physical discs: the direct-drive mechanism, balanced XLR and single-ended outputs, selectable upsampling, and usable digital inputs make it more versatile than a basic CD transport. Burmester’s typically excellent build and distinctive Classic Line presentation add appeal, while the price represents a substantial saving over new. Confirm the remote, smooth disc loading, display, and service history, but assuming the stated good condition is accurate, this is a sensible buy rather than an overpriced one.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Burmester Audiosysteme traces its roots to Berlin, Germany, where engineer and musician Dieter Burmester founded the company in 1977, formally registering it as a GmbH the following year. Born from his frustration with a faulty preamplifier, Burmester repurposed medical electronics into the iconic 777 amplifier—named for its July 1977 debut—launching a legacy of precision engineering and unyielding quality standards. Handcrafted in Berlin ever since, the brand embodies Dieter's vision of technical innovation without compromise, even after his passing.
The company specializes in luxury high-end audio components, including preamplifiers, power amplifiers, integrated and multi-channel amps, CD players, D/A converters, phono preamps, surround processors, FM tuners, speakers, power conditioners, and accessories. Burmester also excels in turntables and cables, but its hallmark is fully DC-coupled designs and symmetrical balanced topology, first pioneered in the 838 phono preamp, delivering noise-free, distortion-minimal sound.
Positioned at the pinnacle of the high-end market, Burmester commands a global reputation for uncompromising musicality, timeless design, and bespoke craftsmanship, often rivaling or exceeding competitors in clarity and dynamics. Its prestige extends to automotive partnerships since 2002, powering elite systems in Bugatti Veyron, Porsche Panamera and Cayenne, Mercedes-Benz, and Ferrari models—proving hi-fi perfection transcends the home.
