Are there still 2 types of the CM Module? I don't see anything specifying which one to order anymore...

You're welcome!
Yeah, I find the site a bit confusing as well.

Burson's lesson from this should be old school audio design philosophy is good but old school internet woes are not! 
 
But alot of head-fi users may not care to remember the time before web 2.0 (i know I don't!) ...all this hassle could be a real put off for 
younger buyers (or not, im just riffing)

Tried with iPhone 5/CCK and the standard Tenor chip.
Result:
- without a hub, iPhone reports inability to work due to high power requirements -> does not work
- with a passive hub - it plays, but at least during first 10s of playback, there are interruptions and clicks.
 
Not optimal. Anyone had a better success?
Thank you.

Was so excited to swap out the USB card in my Conductor with the CM6631A upgrade after hearing many of you rave about it. Took my Conductor apart, pulled the DAC card and took out the original Tenor USB card. However, when I went to put in the CM6631A card I noticed that they had sent me the cable connector version instead of the pin connector version. Doh! That's not going to fit. So I went back to my order form and sure enough, I told them that I needed the pin version. Sucks! Have a note into Burson to see how quickly they can get me the correct version of the card. This is where it stinks that they're literally on the other side of the world "down-under" and wonder how long it will take to get the replacement here. Hope they don't want me to ship the original card all the way back before they provide a replacement. Ugh...

I noticed that with the new site they removed the option to choose which version of the CM module you could order, when I asked them about it they just sent me a link to order it. Maybe you're supposed to be proactive I guess and tell them which one you need?

And I agree it does suck having to ship it back to Australia, everyone knows the only way to send it is via Kangaroo, but the darn things are always stopping to eat vegemite sandwiches....

Yeah, that's weird. I just looked up their site and it says "this account has been suspended". That's not good!

And now it's back up again. Guess they paid their bill...

They're complete amateurs when it comes to their site...

At least they know what they are doing when it comes to making amps :)
