BURSON AUDIO SOLOIST 3X PERFORMANCE Headphone Amplifier Preamplifier Balanced Class A

A vastly improved version of the original Soloist, released in 2015, Burson Audio's Soloist 3X takes up the concept of the original Soloist, including fully discrete circuitry, a resistor-based volume control (ladder), and Class A amplification.

An astonishing power

The Soloist 3X is capable of developing a large power of 8000mW symmetrically or 4000mW asymmetrically. Thus, it is able to accompany demanding helmets as well as extremely sensitive models without any audible noise.

In order to achieve such a high power output, it includes 3 Maximum Current Power Supplies (MCPS) specially designed by Burson. These MCPS provide the Class A audio circuit with a large, clean and stable electrical signal.

Elitist volume control

The volume control of the Soloist 3X uses the legendary MUSES72320 chip, usually used in very high-end and much more expensive devices. This resistor ladder circuit provides perfect channel balance, ensuring an incredible sound stage. In addition, this volume control is coupled with a three-level gain control and an input buffer stage.

The shortest route is always the best

To reduce the length of the signal path when using an external DAC or preamplifier with volume control, Soloist 3X allows you to bypass the MUSES72320 volume control.

It is also possible to use Soloist 3X to boost the power of your favorite sound card while centralizing the volume control of your favorite playback software.

Finally, the Soloist 3X also adapts to your listening experience, integrating AOPs mounted on DIP8 and therefore easily interchangeable to modify the sound reproduction.
