    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    Quote: Haha, thats allright, i know its a lot to shell out for an amp, and i was worried about the issue of whether it would drive the HD 650's as i had heard people had trouble. I read up and found out that apparently the HA-160D was designed with the 650's in mind. No question about...

    Quote: I dont know where you're getting these numbers from :/. I checked the AtoA site and they are both listed at 250mW. I think you are looking for a defect :D. The amp has no issues powering the HD 650's dont worry!

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    Quote: I'm probably about 10 hours in burn in wise, and i have noticed that the amp has relaxed a bit, the mids seem to been increasing in quality, and the bass is increasingly tightening without it reducing the impact. I am going away for the weekend and have left the amp in the...

      Quote:   I think that's because the 160D has a pre-amp? It is definetaly enough to drive HD 650's. They make the 650's sing   EDIT:   Just checked the Burson site, they are both "Output power: 200mW/300 Ohms, 800mW/60 Ohms"

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    Second day is going well, havent really had a chance to burn it in much, but the thing that i have noticed the most difference between running the headphones straight off my computer is just the clarity of music. The instruments have just separated so much more and they are so much easier to...

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    Well i just picked a 160DS up, first one they sold :D. i'll let you guys know over the next few days how it burns it/how it sounds. First impressions are amazing, the bass and mid range and just so luscious and just hang over my ears. It has actually also tightened the bass up very nicely too...

    I emailed the sales department and they said the 160DS will be ready when the distributor returns from Can Jam, i'm guessing in a few days or so.

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    I'm looking into buying this one, it looks like a good solution for someone with just a simple setup in mind. i'm wondering if the DAC/amp quality is on par with the 160D?
