150TH ANNIVERSARY
Burmester X Robbe & Berking
Anniversary Limited Edition
In celebration of the prestigious silver manufacturing company Robbe & Berking’s 150th anniversary this year, we proudly present a jointly enhanced limited edition. This includes a complete high-end sound system, consisting of the 111 Musiccenter, the 218 amplifier, and the renowned BC150 speakers. Carried by the captivating grace of silver and the timeless elegance of thermo ash, originating from the Robbe & Berking shipyard, our partnership embodies a deep commitment to traditional craftsmanship.
This unique edition of the powerful anniversary edition, refined with yacht wood and silver alloys, tells a story of tradition, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance.
“Our alliance with Burmester is based on the strong similarities and philosophies of our respective family-owned manufacturers. We love creating masterpieces for connoisseurs that are globally unique in both craftsmanship and design.”
(Oliver Berking, CEO Robbe & Berking)
Precision in Craftmanship
Every detail of our limited edition is created with dedicated craftsmanship. While some elements are produced in our partner’s Flensburg factory, all parts are finished in our Berlin-based factory, where everything is exclusively hand built.
Design Concept
The BC150 speaker, the 111 Musiccenter and the 218 amplifier as a limited edition heralds the creation of our partnership. The enhanced collaboration pieces uniquely reflects the rich history of Robbe & Berking’s silver manufacturing and yacht building.
The creative use of silver and wood accentuates refined details, transforming the anniversary edition into a multifaceted work of art. Deep brown tones of wood form an elegant contrast to shimmering silver accents and the gentle champagne tone of the frame construction.
The sides of the limited edition BC150 speaker are veneered with original wood from the construction of exclusive luxury yachts, while the front panel showcases a relief specially designed for the anniversary year. The wave-like form of the anniversary relief is reminiscent of the Robbe & Berking design classic, Belvedere. The speaker’s aluminium trim, inspired by Robbe & Berking’s goblet manufacturing tradition, shines in a soft
champagne hue. The company’s outstanding expertise in silver processing is evident not only in the anniversary relief but also in the logo inlays that extend along the entire length of the side surface, emphasizing the distinctiveness of this limited edition anniversary piece.
The casing of the 111 Musiccenter glows in a sophisticated champagne anodization. The display frame and buttons are silver-plated, as is the shiny stripe that elegantly wraps around the center. These refined details give the design a luxurious touch. The 218 power amplifier perfectly complements the ensemble with its champagne-colored anodization and various silver-plated accents.
