Headphones Output; Remote; Burlink - Burmester 099 Owner's Manual

Headphones output

The 099 offers two outputs for headphones. A Headphones Preamplifier output (14) and
a conventional Headphones socket (15) for 6,3mm stereo jacks.
The Headphones Preamplifier output (14) is designated for headphone amplifiers or
wireless headphones. These outputs always receive the output signal, regardless whether
headphones have been connected to the Headphones socket (15) or not.
The Headphones socket (15) accepts headphones with a 6,3mm stereo jack and
impedance greater than 16Ω.
CAUTION: To avoid any damage the playback via the two preamplifier outputs RCA (24)
and XLR (23), (25) is cut off automatically when a headphones jack is plugged in. For safety
reasons the volume is adjusted to its lowest level when plugging the jack in or pulling it out
of its socket. The playback volume of the headphones can be adjusted with the Volume
control knob (7) on the front panel or with the VOLUME + and VOLUME – buttons on the

remote.

However, you do have the possibility to listen to music via the preamplifier outputs RCA (24)
and XLR (23), (25) without having to unplug your headphones. By briefly pressing the OSD
button on the remote you can switch between the Headphones jack (15) and the two
preamplifier outputs RCA (24) and XLR (23), (25). For safety reasons the volume is
adjusted down to the lowest level at each switch. The Headphones Preamplifier output
(14) is not affected by these changes. It is always on.
REMOTE By connecting the DC OUT (21) socket with a corresponding DC IN socket of another
Burmester component you enable the 099 to remotely switch this other component on or off.
In this operating mode the 099 functions as master.
By connecting the DC IN (22) socket with the corresponding DC OUT socket of another
Burmester component the preamplifier can be remotely switched on or off by this other
component. In this case the 099 preamp functions as slave.

BURLINK

The ports for BURmester-Link interfaces (12), (13) will accept all kinds of control systems
(for example PC, CRESTRON, AMX etc.). These systems offer a convenient way to
control your complete playback system, for example using a programmable touch panel.
The LEDs next to these ports marked T and R (for Transmit and Receive) indicate data
exchange activity.
The commands for controlling the 099 preamp can be found in the chapter BURLINK.
