About the 217
The Burmester 217 is the company's first turntable in its renowned Top Line series, inspired by the award-winning 175 Reference model. It prioritizes optimal playback quality with intuitive operability, drawing on over 35 years of phono expertise. Key highlights include two high-efficiency belt-drive AC motors for precise speed stability, a massive low-resonance solid aluminum unibody chassis, a gimbal-mounted straight tonearm (239.1 mm effective length) made of unidirectional carbon fiber composite and aluminum, pre-assembled moving coil (MC) cartridge with Shibata stylus profile, high-quality phono cable, and composite leather turntable mat. Designed as a complete turn-key system, it delivers exceptionally musical and precise vinyl reproduction without built-in phono stage.[1][2][4]
