Offered is „Burmester 151 Musiccenter High End Streamer und Ripper + Vorstufe in silber“ by Burmester as second-hand device from the category „Digital Streamer“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8346761951 ends on 02.11.2026 at 06:16 o'clock.
At €6,599, this Burmester 151 Musiccenter listing is a strong deal, sitting just above the 25th percentile (€3,474) and well below the median (€6,132) of recent EUR comparable listings, making it an excellent value for a first-generation unit before the MK2 arrived. While the MK2 now commands €21,500 new, the original 151 remains a revered all-in-one streamer, DAC, and ripper that still delivers Burmester’s signature sonic clarity and high-end CD ripping to internal drives.
This is a worthwhile buy for enthusiasts who want a complete high-end digital front end without the MK2’s price tag, especially if the silver unit is in good original-owner condition with included accessories. The 151’s ability to rip CDs at high fidelity and stream via its internal DAC and volume control makes it a timeless centerpiece; with no major failure points specific to this model and a price that rewards early adoption, it’s a genuine buying opportunity rather than a cautionary tale.
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.
