Can anyone tell me when XLR connections were first used on stereo equipment. (what years)?
I know RCA connections can produce incredible sounding music, too, but in my experience, I've always found XLR connections sound more detailed to my ears. I'm interested in a vintage integrated amp. Perhaps that's an oxymoron. Anyway, please let me know units/brands that you know about.
Its either Atmasphere or Burmester, as @terraplane8bob already said- Burmester 838 and Burmester 877 and 878 (from 1983. and 1987 and 1988) Also, there are Burmester amps model 850 from 1985 https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisbe216-burmester-850-mono-blocks-solid-state# https://img.usaudiomart.com/uploads/large/5618790-83251dbb-burmester-838-phono-preamp.jpg https://audio-database.com/BURMESTER/amp/model878.html ttps://audio-database.com/BURMESTER/amp/model877.html#google_vignette

@atmasphere thanks for adding the extra info. I have a lot of studio gear. Some uses pin 3 as hot, some pin 2 as hot and some have user selectable hot pin out such as the MTR-15. |
