I bought an open box Soloist 3XP and it was pretty hot. It was defective and sounded horrible, but luckily the vendor allowed me to send it back for a refund. I don't think I want to try it again, so moving on to something different and the search continues.

I have a question. Where do you get the XLR to RCA connectors to utilize the balanced output? I read the manual and they recommend using ONLY Burson connectors, but the unit does not come with it. I looked on the Burson site and their dealers and NO one has them for sale.

I was going to order some Nuetrix connectors but am now having reservations. Burson claims using other connectors can damage the OP amps.

Any insight would be appreciated.

I emailed Burson and they were able to send me an invoice link to make the purchase for the adapters. I'm not sure why they don't have them listed on their site.

I don't know where you are and what suppliers are near you but Burson provide excellent customer service and I have a Conductor 3x and it is stellar. Have you had a listen to an operating burson headamp? It's worth a try, I really think they are good value price vs performance too. I have a Sparkos Aries too. Can highly recommend the product and the company.

my burson soloist 3 generates a noise(maybe ground ?!?!) but when i put my hand on the case all noise is gone. the noise is so faint that it is bearable but I was hoping someone could help help me find a solution ?

Are you streaming music from a transport ? Have a router nearby the AMP ?

Did you purchase from an authorized Burson dealer ? Sounds like you got a dishonest dealer more so than a Burson issue?

No to both but it's only when I make physical contact anyways....

Did I dream this, or was the volume control wheel clicky before? I just connected a pair of headphones through 3,5mm (usually only use XLR), and suddenly the volume control wheel has no clicks when I turn it!!??

Mine never clicks either balanced or single ended.

Usually it "clicks" a little bit for each minor step

There is a small tactile bump on every step on my amp.

I'll have to agree. A tactile bump, but I do not hear any clicking sound.

Looking for opamp to add a lot of wamth and thickness. Any ideas?

I actually have the timekeeper 3i / smsl400 paired with a susvara. Want a little more weight on the vocals. I'm not sure how much difference an opamp can make but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

V6 classics are a bit smoother and warmer comparded to the standard V6 vivids.
