The V2+ DAC is brilliant! i cant get enough of their sound, its very organic like with full of life!
2 negative things though;
1. I just wish they had XLR preamp out , Burson needs to start incorporating XLRs output in their DACs, not sure why they wouldnt, especially considering theyre Timekeeper amplifier has XLR input in bridged mode!! V3 anyone ?
2. They need to fix ground/floor/hiss noise issue! Although I fixed the ground issue myself by changing the ground cable and both end connectors to make the contact much more solid, this eliminated a very annoying buzzing that came on and off randomly, it did help alot, but still though, other DAC have much quieter background noise. Really if they work on tuning these it would simply be a truly amazing DAC.
Nonetheless, even though floor/hiss noise is something that is very annoying to me, i did much comparision back and forth with other dac, and the Burson pulls me in so much more in wtv i hear, the sound is so brilliant i cant even explain why, but ill try with this; its simply effortless, organic, bass has textures, layers and everything simply sounds alive, kind of like how a fully opened flower has a crisp, fresh, organic, layered, textured and depth to the smell compared to a closed/soon to open flower that would still smell good, but is kinda dull and shallow smelling ! lol
All of that really compensate the negatives and make me forget about these issues right away, thats how glorious that thing is!
Btw anyone here ever compared the Auralic Vega or Altair to the Burson V2+ ? thoughts?
