Hey fellow audiophiles and music explorers,
We all chase that elusive perfect sound – the purity, the detail, the emotional connection to our music. But let's be honest, sometimes the sheer complexity of managing digital libraries, switching apps, and ensuring flawless high-res playback can feel like a barrier. What if your high-end system could simply... flow? What if your entire music world was effortlessly integrated, instantly accessible, and delivered in uncompromising studio quality?
At Burmester, we believe in removing those barriers and today, we're thrilled to share some truly exciting news that brings us even closer to that dream:
The Burmester 232 Integrated Amplifier is now Roon Ready!

This isn't just a simple update; it's a profound enhancement to your listening life. "Roon Ready" signifies a particularly close integration between Roon and certified network devices. For your 232, this means it's automatically detected and integrated, providing an intuitive, stable, and audiophile-grade streaming experience without any extra configuration.
Imagine these moments:
We're confident this will revolutionize how you interact with your music.
What does this Roon Ready and software update mean for your ideal digital music setup?
What features are you most excited about?
Are you using roon already or have you had any experiences using Roon?
Share your thoughts and questions below!
Musical regards from Berlin!
Note: Using Roon requires a Roon Core server and a valid Roon plan (e.g., on a PC, Mac, or NAS). Ensure your 232 has software version 2.6.0 installed before updating, and remains connected to power and network during the process.

For your 232, this means it's automatically detected and integrated, providing an intuitive, stable, and audiophile-grade streaming experience without any extra configuration.
Imagine these moments:
- You effortlessly manage your entire music collection - from Apple Music, Qobuz, and Tidal to your cherished local library - all from one central Roon app. No more app-juggling.
- You hit play on your phone, then seamlessly continue that exact track on your Burmester 232 at home, right where you left off.
- Every note reaches you bit-perfect, lossless and in full resolution - exactly as the artist intended. Forget detours via Bluetooth or AirPlay that compromise fidelity.
- Smart Standby: Your 232 remains network-accessible in standby and can be woken directly by streaming apps like Roon, Qobuz, Spotify or TIDAL. True flexibility in control!
- External Storage Media: Plug-in your USB sticks or SD cards, and the 232 recognizes and plays high-resolution files (MP3, WAV, FLAC, high-resolution DSD) directly. It even presents these media as a network folder for easy file transfers from your PC – perfect for large music libraries.
- Universal Plug and Play (UPnP): Use your 232 as a UPnP client, allowing direct streaming from UPnP servers in your local network, including NAS systems or legacy Burmester devices.
- New Sample Rates: Connect to a PC as an audio interface and select up to 32-bit for lossless, high-resolution playback without additional conversion.
- Enhanced Bluetooth: Not just for audio! The new Bluetooth connection for the remote control provides greater range and stability, reliably preventing unintentional control of other devices. For spontaneous listening, Bluetooth Audio (SBC codec) transmits music up to 320 kbps.
We're confident this will revolutionize how you interact with your music.
