    Upgrading from Burson Playmate (1) to a separate Amp & Dac solution

    I’ve been a happy owner of the Burson Playmate. I have had this for some time now and have been loving it since then. The issue is that I want to get some new gear due to support issues. Burson is amazing on customer support, the issue is that I’m from Portugal, and requesting support ( i...

    Burson Playmate 2 (3W, ESS9038 DAC, Pre amp, DSD512, USB-C, toslink)

    Actually, my Playmate (1) is turned on 24/7 ... i never had any issues with it ... at least, not until now ... hope i don't regret saying this :D So ... not talking about Playmate 2 ... and still on the Burson line ... what's the logic upgrade from Playmate ... Conductor? It's a steep increase...

    Burson Playmate 2 (3W, ESS9038 DAC, Pre amp, DSD512, USB-C, toslink)

    I have Playmate (1) with Vivid & Classic opamps mix. Really enjoy it... My question is, did someone here do the upgrade from Playmate to Playmate 2 ? If so... worth it, and on which aspects? Thank you so much :)

    Philips Fidelio X2?!

    What are your feelings on the Dekoni's? I still have my Brainwavz XL (Gel) ... but since these are specifics to the X2HRs I actually got interested but on the suede version though.

    Creative Sound Blaster new series Z, Zx & ZxR

    So it's been a while i last posted here. I went and took my ZxR from the bottom of the drawer and want to use it on my kid's rig. What's the best combo for the ZxR where we can keep the "metal plate" ? ( for singles and duals ) Thank you so much

    Burson Playmate 2 (3W, ESS9038 DAC, Pre amp, DSD512, USB-C, toslink)

    Cool, i have Playmate 1 and it's been amazing. Since this thing is still rocking, I won't be upgrading, and until we have some good European support, it's a mess in terms of technical support bringing stuff from Australia, customs and stuff ... So, super happy with Playmate 1 ... ... but I...

    You can't get new earpads. I'm using Brainwavz XL pads on mine.

    Philips Fidelio X2?!

    Fidelio X3 lost that "signature sound" of the X2, being way more similar to many other offers in the market ( the problem is that for the same price range, you may have better offers right now ) ... the 9600 is just over-priced ... and i love these X2HR prices :D

    After checking SHP9600 and Fidelio X3 ... I ended up buying a Fidelio X2HR/00 at 120 EUR over Amazon :D

    Does the sound signature have a major change with the new pads?

    Philips Fidelio X2?!

    I'm still rocking my X2s ... but my earpads are a mess... Yes, i have the glued version, but they are not glued anymore :D ( ooops ) So which options do we have for replacement earpads in your opinion, the best options? Thank you so much :)

    Totally agree … the only thing that gets me frustrated is some QA stuff ( my RCA plugs, for example, if i remove the cables I always loose the shieldings ) … and … well .. the support will always be difficult because Australia … they are 12h away from us in Portugal :) On a different note, what...

    I talked with Burson ... they are sending me a new PCB since this shouldn't happen other than when there's a faulty part.. and I'm still under warranty on both V6s and Playmate. As for the blown capacitator, yeah, it's working with the Classic right now without any hiccups ... Right now I have...

    Some updated. Run some tests ( basic ) ... and I identified the faulty Opamp. It's the Vivid that was in the damaged socket. I tried leaving all the stock opamps and replacing one by one ... and one vivid didn't work at all. I now left 2 Classic and 2 stock opamps. I'm using the damaged socket...

    Actually nothing happened... I have the bang and playmate stacked... that is it. One moment everything was good and the other second it went bad. This is the Second PCB I have... everything was smooth. Just bad luck I guess. Meanwhile contacted Burson lets see. Now my doubt is ... if I order...

    Ok ... I knew something was frying :frowning2: as soon as I turned it on, there was a spark on the first Opamp slot ( if you notice on the left, it's burned ) https://drive.google.com/file/d/14DjnR9O6PoAfBtjrN57Q4z4Cu1MyPWsE/view?usp=sharing So, after that, I went to Windows that freaked out...
