Schiit vs Burson?
« on: July 05, 2014, 08:53:24 AM »
Looking at getting an end game desktop setup.

Gungnir+Mjolnir or Burson Conductor, which is better?

My chips on the Schiitstack. Burson Conductor isn't too bad, but I'm constantly put off by the bullshit the spew on their site.

Burson makes nothing endgame.

Knowing more about your gear and what your tastes/needs are would help.

Okay yeah... there are many options out there aside from just the schiit stack and Burson, but it really depends on your headphones and your preferences.

What headphones? Can you reterminate jacks to balanced 4 pin XLR by yourself? I'm not a big Burson fan.


Also Asgard 2 or Vahalla 2 are other amps to consider depending upon what you want or actually need.
