Top 5 best integrated amplifiers for different budgets – from Hi-Fi to High End
Choosing an integrated amplifier of both Hi-Fi and High End class can be a simple matter with our new article-rating of the best modern devices in this category. The future-proof engineering solutions and outstanding sound are achievable today in different price segments.
German company Burmester calls its new Burmester 232 integrated amplifier “swiss army knife” for audio. The model offers high fashionability and optional offers a full set of streaming functions.
Output power (at 4 ohms load), W – 120 x 2 | Frequency response, Hz – 5-60,000 (at a level of -3 dB) | Harmonic distortion + noise, % – 0.015 | Signal-to-noise ratio, dB – more than 92.
The Burmester Integrated Amp 082 integrated stereo amplifier is part of the company's Classic series of components, and has inherited many of the family traits of its high-end amplifiers. The device's circuitry is based on the rejection of the use of separation capacitors, which are a potential source of distortion. The output stages of the amplifier develop sufficient output current for full pumping of acoustic systems with complex impedance characteristics.
The model 032 belongs to the Classic line in the Burmester nomenclature. The manufacturer claims proprietary technology for the amplifier in its maximum implementation, a balanced design with direct current communication, the absence of capacitors in the signal circuits, and proprietary protective circuits against overload and other abnormal conditions.
