EXPERIENCE ASTONISHING DRIVING CAPABILITY WITH THE PROPRIETARY POWER SUPPLY

Burson Audio Soloist 3X Performance is a vastly improved version of the original Soloist, released in 2015. Burson Audio Soloist 3X Performance takes up the concept of the original Soloist, including fully discrete circuitry, a resistor-based volume control (Ladder), and Class A amplification and upgrades to keep up with the times. The Soloist 3X Performance is capable of churning out 8000mW in XLR and 4000mW single-ended. This power enables the Soloist 3X Performance to drive headphones up to 110dB sensitivity without detectable current noise. To achieve such a high power output, Soloist 3X Performance includes 3 Maximum Current Power Supplies (MCPS) specially designed by Burson. These MCPS provide the Class A audio circuit with a large, clean and stable electrical signal.

UTILISING RESISTOR LADDER MUSES VOLUME CONTROLLER WITH THREE-LEVEL GAIN CONTROL

Burson Audio Soloist 3X Performance has been engineered with high-quality components for every aspect of its build. This quality is reflected in the volume control circuit. The Soloist 3X Performance uses the legendary MUSES72320 chip usually used in high-end devices. This resistor ladder circuit provides perfect channel balance, ensuring an incredible sound stage. In addition, this volume control is combined with three-level gain control and an input buffer stage. When combined with three levels of gain and our input buffer stage, the Soloist 3X Performance matches any headphone and loudspeaker amplifier perfectly. Although the MUSE72320 is an incredible volume controller, you can bypass it when your DAC or preamp controls volume. You can also use the Soloist X to boost the driving power of your favourite soundcard while centralising volume control from your favourite playback software or games.

With hundreds of audio opamps out there, you have the freedom to tailor your listening experience to your preference.

Dedicated Amplifier a must for serious headphones

Great upliftment to sound of my HD800s & other headphones. After being underwhelmed by Amp/Dac all in ones, I have realised a dedicated amplifier like this good one from Burson is absolutely necessary
