Knghifi,
I read some time of listening impressions that leave me rather puzzled, but It is a game and evenI could not understand the sound reality is often very different from what we read. For me the bargain is a pure musical goal, maybe for other audiophiles is just a game and the changing of game could get satisfaction enough. In my listening studio and my personal system passed a lot of audio components and the Burmester 911 is the best amplifier ever heard and far much better from latest owned amps, first the Vitus ss-101 and then Dartzeel 108 with preamp 18, which I compared with my Avalon.I lost a lot of money, but this is the true and based on own mistakes after hoping the future will be better. If the Burmester 911 exists now since 1991 there is a reason that It is still today is considered everywhere one of most musical amplifier ever made. The 911 with preamplifier 077 in my system reproducing harmonious organic musicality with top sources while remaining utterly neutral overall. Instead the Dartzeel, but also the Vitus and the others amps heard in my system, have a subtle reduction of musical colors like turning down the contrast and color saturation to get less noise. But less is not always more in audio reproduction. With Burmester, the Avalon retains the full-bodied, full color beauty of analogue richness and provides ultimate definition, exceptionally high in transparency and resolution with the realism of reproduction simply true. The mid and high are very natural and the bass are tight and deep, very articulate and so detailed. Now I have the best overall sound with bass qualitatively and quantitatively I've previously achieved in my listening room. Micro dynamics were very nearly as thrilling as macro dynamics! The alive-ness in my room is astounding now not reached with my previous amplifier. Now I'm very happy with these Burmester components and I am listening my music with full satisfaction and seen the sound quality level reached I think now only to the music.

Joenid,
sorry if I repeated my post twice. You moved from Burmester to Darzteel and myself moved from Dartzeel to Burmester. For me a couple of steps ahead Burmester, but as long as you are satisfyed It should be good enough, but in my experience only the time can say if you made the correct choice. Instead I erroneously moved to Dartzeel from Vitus, but my real sensation with Dartzeel 108 and 18 was coming out after few months that I could not listening anymore due to lack of dynamic and the top frequencies in evidence my music collection so bloated and artificial. With Vitus ss-101 I had other impression but now I can say better than Dartzeel and more close to the music. Then with full satisfaction never achieved before I moved from Dartzeel to Burmester and now I finally found myself listening to the music, not through an audio system. Now with Burmester almost seems as if the entire system relaxed allowing the music to flow effortlessly without any strength. Pure musical bliss. A unique experience and the best investment I ever made in my long audio journey. I noted that you own the Tad Cr-1 that I often listen to my retailer. The sound is quite good with a precise sonic signature and lacking a little in the area of bass frequency, imo. Heard the Tad with Mark Levinson 20.6 mono, my ex Vitus ss-101 and with an integrated amplifier Burmester 032. In all of situation the cd player was the Linn cd-12. I prefer them with Burmester 032 and the sound was well balanced and refined, with no particular coloration and a nice soundstage large and deep and pin point image focus. I noted also that you have the Dan D'Agostino power amp, so It could mean that you are feeling the same unhappy sensations that I had with Dartzeel and being not really satisfied you're already in movement searching to replace it or being music matter is not the final goal you could achieve the full satisfaction playing with audio components and the changing of game will grant to you the same happiness. It could be considered normal for the most of audiophiles that the music matter is not the first target! Bye.
