The Conductor Virtuoso PCM1793 Edition
The Conductor Virtuoso is a USB DAC, Headphone Amp and Preamplifier. Most enthusiasts use its DAC and amplifier to drive their prized headphones with one beautifully-built, modestly-priced component. With over 4 watts of power on tap the Conductor Virtuoso will drive any headphone with ease. The Conductor Virtuoso’s headphone amp section is essentially the Soloist which reviewers have raved about. Or use the Conductor Virtuoso’s preamp functions to make it the center of a headphone and speaker-based desktop system with headphone option.
How Virtuoso is it?
Burson has significantly upgraded and refined previous generations of the Conductor. There are now a stunning
100-steps of volume control with a new, easy-to-read display. When the Conductor Virtuoso is on the volume indicators appear on the face of the thick, antiresonant aluminium front plate.
You can choose from two interchangeable DAC boards with different sonic characteristics and the modular design makes for no-fuss upgrades. As always, Burson eschews densely-packed opamps and designs all discrete circuitry for superior tonality, clarity and a lower noise floor.
DAC Option: PCM1793 DAC
The remote control is worthy of the Burson badge, carved from solid aluminium with no visible screws. The touch and feel of Burson products matches their irresistible sound that pulls you into the music in a visceral, exciting way.
Cleaner Power Means Higher Resolution
Ever notice how your system sounds better in the evening or weekends?
Sometimes called the Vault by our customers, the 6mm Resonance Free Aluminum (RFA) enclosures are constructed from precision-machined panels.
Burr Brown PCM1793
Burson has worked with the Burr Brown PCM1793 DAC chip for over six years. It’s available as an alternative to the ESS SABRE32 DAC in the Conductor Virtuoso.
We’ve always felt the 1793 was an underrated chip so we developed a new FET input stage with very few components in the signal path. As a result the sound is irresistibly transparent and musical. The 1793 has the classic Burr Brown sound; it’s warm, engaging, relaxing, full of texture and a bit analog sounding without the ultimate resolution of the Sabre 9018.
