How do you compare LCD-2 LCD-X vs HE560 with Bursons?

Indeed a lower interest than expected. On the other hand I've noticed that many campaigns with quite expensive offerings tend to really start moving the last couple of days. I really hope that's the case here as well since it's a seriously good unit.

I've used a couple of low impedance hp's with it (SR325is and Fidelio X2) and they sounds just as terrific as everything else I've tried it with. Heck even the 11 Ohm ASG-1PLUS iem sounds amazing from the V2+.

I'm pretty much done with my review and will post it tomorrow but I guess I've kind of spilled the beans already

I don't think I've ever listened so much to any device in such short time, insomnia ftw.

 
Thank You. Looking forward to your review...

I too am very surprised at how quiet it has been with Burson's IDGG campaign.
 
As an owner of Burson's 1st gen Conductor and also the Lycan opamp testing bench.  I can say Burson really have got it spot on if you want an amp that will let you really hear your recordings.  Very neutral in nature, transparent, articulate are just a few words that come to mind when describing the Burson's signature.
 
And its not only about their products either.  Its also about the people that are behind the scene.  I'm sure most people would have had the experience in dealing with after sales service that drives you mad, not the Burson guys.  I had a couple of dealings with Burson's support staff, they are quick to respond and were able to provide solutions that certainly keep me happy!
 
For those that are sitting on the fence, this really is a great deal too good to miss.  You are paying for the price of a mid tier PRC product, and getting a high end amplifier that can compete with something that is two to three times the price.
 
Unfortunately, there is one big problem with buying this product, and that is you will want to throw away all your MP3's and re-rip all your music to high-res/lossless formats.

Hopefully this will help and shed some light on the performance of the V2+ for those who's curious about it:

I'll need to do some editing on the pictures when I get home later today but other than that it's done.

Thank you for your ongoing support for Burson. This is our first IndiGoGo campaign and I must admit that we didn't plan it well. After speaking to industry peers recently, we realised that such a campaign needs active involvement from IndiGoGo some 60 days prior to its launch. ie, we should have told IndiGoGo about it and work with them (pay them...) to ensure its success... Nevertheless, we'll honour all the perks accepts by audiophiles and work hard to deliver them on time. : )

Furthermore, we are delighted by the fact that this campagin has generated a good number of pre-orders made directly with us. These contributors could not participate on IndiGoGo due to their concerns with import duties and taxes. When their CV2+ are available, we'll work with them and our regional distributors to ensure that their units are delivered to them with no additional postage and duties payable.
 
Thanks for all your support and thanks to Peter for his in-depth review of the V2.

 I'm really excited to read this.  I am one of the backers for the V2+ and even though people here said it's pretty much a sure thing, I couldn't help but have a little slice of concern about the fulfillment given how the campaign was progressing.  I'm moving my way up the hi-fi chain and I can't wait to listen to the unit after all the great things I read about Burson.  My newly acquired HiFiMAN HE-1000 and I will be waiting impatiently :p

Considering the latest succsess of the Fostex TH-X00 massdrop campaign it might be a good idea to start such a campaign via massdrop (too) next time... 4.000 buyers of this headphones alone receiving a daily newsletter from massdrop with newly added audiophile stuff even in the 1.xxx price range could be attracted... Not knowing the exact business model behind massdrop I can hardly think of another opportunity to reach your peer group massively more easily.

Thank you guys for all your kind word of support.
 
Yes, we are a bunch of old schools that better with circuit design but not very good with the new age mass media online marketing. :frowning2: We will learn from this and hopefully we'll do better next time  :)

Quality is much better than quantity as I have experience with other campaigns.  Done once done right is the best motto to have.

But you guys were wonderful to communicate with. Specially Alex and Dennis. I am sure you will do well with this product.
I am waiting too for my CV2+ and timekeeper. Out side indigogo campaign of course (-:
