Burson conductor headphone amplifier / pre amplifier / 24bit 192k dac with usb input

Advertisement

Avoid static shocks to the inputs or outputs. Before connecting or removing a cable, touch any
grounded surface, such as the chassis of a component that is plugged into an AC socket. Inputs and
outputs can be safely connected to the Burson Conductor when its AC power is switched off.
Switching between Pre Amp & Headphone Amp
When the front headphone jack is connected, the Conductor will operate in headphone amp mode.
Output signal from the Pre Amp RCA will be switched off. Please disconnect headphone output from
the font panel to switch the Conductor into preamp mode.

Output level switch

The Conductor has three levels of outputs. It allows better matching to different audio systems.
There are no right or wrong settings. Please refer to the table below for different levels of gain.

Connecting to AC Power

Check to make sure your Burson Conductor has been manufactured for operation at your AC line
voltage. Attempting to use your Burson Conductor at any voltage other than specified on the rear of
the unit may cause damage that is not covered by Burson's warranty.

Using AC Line Conditioners

Of the wide range of power line conditioners currently available, some can provide improvement in
sound while others actually degrade sonic performance. Use caution in selecting a power line
conditioner for your system. In particular, avoid using inexpensive "surge protectors". Although these
can prevent damage from high voltage spikes, they often degrade performance.
Break-in and warm-up
Careful listeners will notice that the sound of the Burson Conductor improves steadily after the unit is
powered-up. A new unit will undergo more dramatic changes when power is applied for the first time.
Depending on the resolution of the system and the attentiveness of the listener, you may find that
the sound continues to improve over the first several weeks of operation. If the power is disconnected
for a period of an hour or more, the unit will undergo similar but less dramatic break-in.
