088 has a new home
 

found a 088 with a price I just couldn't pass on. :music: tape loop out of c2300 for phono works perfect, i got the sony zx2 running tidal to the 088 dac, everything sounds and looks great! building this little dream system one step at a time.

no matter what i tried the photo was upside down, sorry

Congrats!
Beautiful piece of kit!

Congrats, Superb unit. For your guide the fantastic 088's could be equipped with phono module too...

Enjoy the music.

Excellent combination. Those LS50s are leading a charmed life, now :)

---and here I thought the 088 was an anti-gravity machine...rats!!! :D

Congratulations on the acquisition!

Pooya.......Got you covered. :thumbsup:

Pooya.......The Burmester 088 and your Burmester 911 Mk3 should be a marriage made in heaven. What's going to happen to the McIntosh C2300?

I'm probably gonna part ways with my mc275 and c2300 soon. Hard to let go of my first set of hifi toys. Gonna use the c2300 as a phono for the time being until I decide on a phono preamp in the future. I'm in no rush. I debated on keeping my tube gear.

Interesting once I got the rels dialed in with the ls50's the 088 showed its presence in the system. I was able to notice a lot more of the background music coming into play.

The rels were set to 80hz with gain of 12, the midrange did clear up in the ls50's. I'm sure big boy speakers are in my future. It is pretty impress what a $1500 pair of mini monitors can do though

Some Kef Blades next. :)
