Burson HA-160D

I don't have an answer but you could try contacting Chris Johnson at Parts ConneXion here in Canada, prices are comparable to the US and I suspect it there's a simple modification needed they may be able to do it there.

Edit: Looking at a pic of the back it seems there might just be a switch.

Many thanks

I found two websites in the UK selling these. One doe snot have it in stock at all and another, after contacting them via email, said they can have it in 2 weeks and I paid half the price now, they will let me know when they have it and I will pay the rest and they will ship it.

Price is 950GBP - itemaudio.co.uk

It seems the HA-160 has an international voltage switch. So i'm hoping the 160D has the same. But confirmation would be great from anyone who actually has one.

Remember that buying from abroad (Canada, US) will mean paying customs and handling charges.

Yes, the 160D also has a voltage selector. I don´t have it with me but I think you can select between 110 or 230V.

Let me know how the buy goes and how much the extra cost of shipping, customs etc., is and what the final price you pay.

Yes, it has a voltage switch. 110 V or 220~240V. Buy with confidence, you will not be disappointed.

The Burson is a nice match for the Audeze, i have them currently and i was impressed by the magical of this amp.

Only annoying thing is having to wait for postage due to all the bank holidays. Its coming tuesday, so that's about 6 days not including bank holidays.

Thanks for the update. I am waiting for mine too bought though Item Audio with a bit lower price to almost match the one from the US.

does anyone know what happened to the "official" Burson HA-160D thread ?

i tried searching and couldn't find it. i also checked my old post and the ones that i made in that thread were deleted.

i found a link to it in another thread but it doesn't work, 4th link - http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/555084/6moons-and-burson-have-been-naughty

I am wondering the same thing.  I can read the cached version of threads realting to the 160 on Google, but many of them give an error message on this site.

I am trying to decide between a 160D and a WA6SE.

 how can a thread disappear like that ?

and you're right it can be accessed by using google cache...
