Stellar sound, your way.
Effortless Power. Pure Class-A Performance.
The Conductor Stellar delivers a massive 8 watts of pure Class-A power, effortlessly driving everything from sensitive IEMs to power-hungry headphones.
Backed by our Max Current Power Supply, it has zero background noise, ensuring pristine playback at any volume.
At its core, each channel is powered by four Onsemi MJE15032 transistors, precision-made in the USA. Optimised for high Class-A bias, they bring out the clarity, control, and musicality that define the Burson house sound.
A New Benchmark for IEM Listening
Some headphones crave power. Others demand an absolutely pure, black background.
That’s why the Conductor Stellar features a dedicated amplification module engineered specifically for in-ear monitors. With ultra-low noise and high sensitivity, it reveals every subtle detail in your music—without a trace of hiss.
Whether you’re mastering tracks or just enjoying your favourite IEMs, Stellar delivers precision, depth, and silence that lets your music shine.
Remote Control, Reinvented
Included with the Stellar Deluxe, our next-generation remote control is as striking as it is functional—dressed in space grey and copper to match the Stellar’s bold design.
It gives you fluid, effortless control from up to 10 metres away, turning your listening experience into something that feels as refined as it sounds.
Precision-Tuned for the ESS9039PRO – Just Sit Back and Enjoy
The Conductor Stellar features the flagship ESS9039PRO DAC, delivering exceptional resolution and dynamic range.
While it offers 24 filters and path settings, we’ve done the hard work for you.
Each filter has been carefully selected to match our analog output stage, resulting in a sound that’s effortlessly natural and dynamic.
