DIETER BURMESTER
In Memoriam
It is with deep regret that Burmester Audio Systems GmbH announces the
death of Dieter Burmester, the founder and Managing Director. He passed away
on 15th August 2015 in Berlin-Zehlendorf after a brief but serious illness. Until
his death, he headed the company which he founded in 1978.
Dieter Burmester's aspiration and goal was always aimed at bringing together
the perfect combination of supreme sound, technological innovation and timeless
design in all his work. Without doubt, the Burmester brand today is known
worldwide and synonymous with uncompromising sound and the very highest
manufacturing quality.
Born in 1946, the musician and engineer perfectly embodied this aspiration together
with his staff, which is why everyone who worked there appreciated his
work with great gratitude.
Ten years ago he rose to the challenge of also bringing the high-end sound experience
to automobiles. After a successful debut in the Bugatti Veyron, he set
his sights on the premium vehicles of the Mercedes-Benz and Porsche brands.
Dieter Burmester was an internationally respected and recognised pioneer in the
high-end sector. He created icons of the high-end world that are second to none
with many of his legendary audio components. His passion for music and highquality
playback constantly inspired him to take innovative approaches. His creative
energy and rousing enthusiasm were the driving force behind his success,
in even the most extraordinary projects.
It was a heartfelt desire for Dieter Burmester to pass on his extensive
knowledge and the art of listening to all his staff. Together with his wife, Marianne
Burmester as Managing Director, they will continue to run the company as
he would have wished.
Dieter Burmester was a founding member of our present association HIGH END
SOCIETY, which was founded with his support in 1982 and has set itself the
goal of promoting high quality music playback.
Within and outside our association, Dieter Burmester always represented the
interests of the high-end industry with enthusiasm, skill and with great personal
commitment. With the death of Dieter Burmester, we have lost an esteemed
colleague and our association a valuable member but the entire high end scene
has lost an outstanding personality.
We will remember Dieter Burmester fondly.
