LOTS I was using the PS P300 PP for front end and pre and everything was fine until a friend recommended me Burmester 948 Power Conditioner,he told me he plug all his equipments his system sound execellent,but i used it,damn damn damn the Burmester 948 make my system sound colored,muddy,boxy,dry on the upper region.Lucky for me i sold it without any loss.i'll probably stick to my PS P300 or upgrade to P600 so I can plug in my power.Personally I think this Burmester 948 makes cheap equipments sound better.

Plenty. Does not work ith good hi-fi gear. When I plugged them into my Cello system, everything sounded dead and anemic. The whole system lost it's drive and musicality. Clearly not suitable for better designed system. When I took them off , my system became much livlier and musical. Tried selling them, but the resale prices are bad. |

I bought the 948 simply because HP of the absolute sound lists it as a four-star component. The magnitude of the upgrade after plugging the preamp/dac/transport/power amp into the 948 is simply UNBELIEVABLE. It seems to me that the distance between each individual musical instrument has become REAL. I can hear things which I can't hear before. (I already used the ONE interconnet and XLO Limited Edition before I bought the 948.) The noise floor reduces to the abosolute minimum. I strongly recommend any serious audiophile to try this 948 out. Although it is just a conditioner, the weight of this active device is more than 30 pounds! In short, it is a serious conditioner for serious audiophile. The only drawback is of course the price at US$4999. |

expensive Well I am no friend of power conditioners, because I think, good electronic should sound the way it has to. Of course I tried several units and all of them did the usual: Improve the low frequencies but after a while they kill some of the highest frequencies and they sucked the air out. Very easy to find out: Remove the filer after a week and listen to your system again. |
