The Top Line 089 Belt-Drive CD Player combines brand-new developments with distinguished technologies from our Reference Line products. The interplay between the Burmester-invented belt-drive, SRC-function to 96kHz/24bit or 192kHz/24bit with the according conversion, is regarded as benchmark technology internationally.

Belt-drive guarantees ideal data sampling
Drive unit capsuled in solid, low-resonance chamber
Special drive unit construction results in warm, full-bodied sound
Latest D/A-converting technology with selectable sample rate conversion to 96kHz/24bit or 192kHz/24bit for relaxing high-range reproduction (also for external digital sources)
Balanced input and output terminals
2 digital inputs (S/P DIF standard up to 192kHz) for connection of further digital sources: 1x optical LWL, 1x cinch for 75Ohm coaxial cable
1 balanced analog input, XLR 3pol., for the connection of an analog source (e.g. FM Tuner), can be used for cinch via adapter
Balanced processing of analog signal from D/A converter for higher dynamics
Separation of supply voltage for analog and digital circuit parts minimizes influence of digital high frequency on analog output signal
Additional filtering of supply voltage for analog circuit part for undistorted sound experience
Fixed and variable output
Analog volume control in 60 increments for direct connection to power amps (preamp-function)
1 balanced analog output, XLR 3pol.
1 unbalanced analog output, cinch
1 unbalanced analog TAPE output, cinch, for analog tape recordings
Analog outputs equipped with X-Amp2 output modules
Selectable output amplification of analog outputs for adjustment to connected equipment: fix (for connection to preamplifiers or integrated amplifiers) or volume selectable (for connection to power amplifiers or active loudspeakers)
2 digital outputs (S/P DIF standard) for digital recordings: 1x optical LWL, 1x cinch for 75Ohm coaxial cable
MMI slot for future extensions (inputs and outputs of virtually any kind)
