V4 discrete audio opamp customer feedback
I recently purchased a matched pair of dual discrete op amps for my EE Minimax Dac. I am extremely happy with my purchase Johnny W. The System Listening with Eastern Electric Minimax DAC · DAC: tube / solid-state selectable DAC (12AU7) · discontinued Frequency response: 15 Hz – 32 kHz Output impedance: 22k (tube) / […]
To be quite honest the results are simply awesome, the Burson discrete op amp transformed the Minimax DAC in a whole new machine seems to work beautifully with the ESS9018, it adds tons of detail, as well as a fair amount of airiness. All in all music gains ‘Gestalt’, a more haptic, tangible experience altogether, […]
I am up and running and the Burson HD op amps are a very worthwhile addition. Wow! The tube side of the Music Hall 25.3 DAC isn’t so soggy anymore. The big benefit was to the balanced SS output, which bypasses the tube and output caps. The bass was kind of soft before, sounded thin. […]
A notable difference and improvement for these discrete opamps over other IC operational amplifiers tried in the Firestone Cute Beyond headphone amplifier, including the old time favorite OPA627. Busy going through my music collection of great diversity in genre and thus far it just seems to do everything right. It has brought to this little […]
I tied the clock power source into the 15V (LM7815) regulator. This worked well, for power, as well as the clock seems to regulate down to 15v so I suspect that why it’s built in regulator is barely warm vs hot. The discrete opamps installed well onto the Onix Audio XCD 88 CD Player vertically, […]
…”I have successfully upgraded my old Marantz SR8500 Receiver. One burson discrete opamp for the L-R channels the other for the Centre and Sub. I use the Marantz only as a preamp into my RMB-1095.For now I’m using cheap 7*15 regs but look forward to buy some low noise regs from you in the future. […]
“Burson audio has a great product. My (Shangling CD-80 CD player) audio terms are not good but I do have old ears. I know good sound when I hear it”… Antonio T.

With some help, i remove all the components interesting by the tweak on my Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray Player 83. 2) i plug your two discrete opamp (before op CMS ,it’s very small for my old eyes!). 3) I make myself a power supply with old toroidal transformer 250VA !! 220v-15/15v (salvage in my factory), régulateurs […]
Attached is a few shots of both the dual and single discrete opamps in my Jungson Ja-2 pre amplifier.The change in sound wasn’t subtle. This was a relatively straight forward exercise.They are slotted nicely in some sockets installed for opamp rolling purposes.An excellent upgrade from the BB2604 and NE5534’s.They match nicely with the Siemens ECC801s […]
Dear Burson team, I send you some pictures of my dac and of my system. …In visible and infra-red (fluke thermal camera from my job) Description of the Upgrade: I have a little dac based on CS8416 + PCM1798 Then, 2 NE5532 for the I/V section , and 2 NE5534 in output (1) I first […]
Here are some pics of my system. Marantz SR-8500 with dual discrete opamp.Only used as pre amp.Rotel RCD-965BX with single discrete opamp and clock. Plus loads of mods to power supply. Awesome machine. Rotel RMB-1095 didn’t find the need to mod it best amp I’ve ever had and loads of detail for HT or two […]
Finally the McIntosh MX-136 is up and running again. Fitted the discrete opamps but unfortunately ran into a problem where one channel stopped working… Eventually tracked it down to a signal ground having an intermittent connection. I have just finished watching a movie and the sound difference is amazing. The sound seems considerably more dynamic, and […]
I recently purchased some new HiFi equipment from high end Austrian manufacturer Ayon Audio, a cd player (in fact 2 models of their CD players) and a pair of tube monobloc amplifiers.. All pieces of Ayon equipment produce absolutely incredible sound The more expensive of the two CD players, the model Ayon Audio CD-5s retails […]
