I wrote a review of the Burson V5i opamp here http://www.head-fi.org/products/burson-audio-supreme-sound-opamp-v5i/reviews/17329

All of my listening tests were done using the B4 if anyone is interested.

Nice review ,so the v5i helps the B4 alot then makes the B4 more tempting?

I personally think so. I'm sure a lot will depend on your source and headphones though. The Zen 2.0 which I would say is a fairly neutral, but incredible sounding earbud, benefited hugely from the V5i. Other, less resolving earbuds that I have, did not benefit as much from the upgrade. Definitely a noticeable difference over the stock NE5532, but maybe not as much as with the Zen 2.0

As I mentioned in the review, prior to hearing one, I had a hard time justifying the price of the V5i (I got my MUSES used for half Price). Now after hearing it, I would have no problem paying full price for one.
