Burmester 035 Phono MC Module Phono Preamplifier This is an internal MC/MM phono stage module for the Burmester 035 preamp. It has never been used but does require the 035 preamp, which I did previously own but the retailer didn't despatch this to me until several months after I had sold it! Original packaging included. Condition: As new Payment Method: PayPal, EFT or COD Region/State: (NSW) New South Wales/Australia By AuDrew 0 Comments AUD $500 Date: May 15, 20241 yr
This Burmester 035 preamp is a legendary German design renowned for its transparent sound and robust relay-based switching, making it a top pick for serious analog or digital front ends. At an asking price of A$500, this is an undeniable bargain, sitting far below the 25th percentile of A$6,049 in our AUD listings database and roughly 90% under the median of A$11,587. Even converting the original new price of roughly €9,400 (approx. A$15,500) to AUD, this listing is a strong deal that defies typical used market logic.
The 035 delivers exceptional clarity and a musicality that justifies its enduring reputation among hi-fi enthusiasts. A listing described as “like_new” in AUD condition at this price suggests a rare opportunity to acquire a high-end preamp for the cost of a budget component. Unless there are hidden repair costs or missing original accessories, this is a buying opportunity worth pursuing immediately, as the price gap leaves little room for anything but genuine value.

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.
