Discrete Audio Opamp
Burson V6 Vivid and V6 Classic fully discrete audio opamps
Both designs evolved from the Burson V5. But just as evolution is never linear, two V6 circuitries emerged to compete for the hearts and minds of music enthusiasts.
Designed to optimise audio performance
A surgeon never uses a Swiss Army knife. An astronomer never studies our universe with binoculars. No matter the industry, specialized tooling is required to optimize performance. This is often overlooked in audio design, where general-purpose IC-based opamps are widely used.
Our opamps are specifically designed to optimize audio performance, and our V6 discrete opamps are our sharpest tools yet.
The Best Upgrade and Easiest Upgrade
Measuring 12.4 mm × 14.5 mm × 29 mm (0.48 in × 0.57 in × 1.14 in), the V6 are the smallest discrete op-amps in the world. They conveniently fit wherever they’re used.
The V6 are the only opamps in the world with reverse voltage protection. While other opamps are instantly damaged if installed backwards, the V6 are designed to survive such accidents unscathed.
Unsurpassed Performance Driven by Passion and Refined over time
The V6 Vivid and V6 Classic are the results of over 12 years of research and six generations of designs. They are the most refined we have ever created.
Unsurpassed Quality
Like our passion for audio, our Opamps are guaranteed to last a lifetime. We use the best components and enhance their performance through painstaking selection and meticulous component matching.
A lifetime warranty covers every Burson Opamp in the world right now, from V1 to V6—an offer no other op-amp manufacturer dares to match. Together with the reverse voltage protection featured in our V6, these advantages demonstrate our commitment to quality and our care for our customers’ investments.
