Conductor 3/3X Performance

Burson Audio's mission has been to create Hi-Fi products that speak for themselves from the very start, putting all of their resources into product development with little spent on advertising or other overhead costs. The Conductor 3 Performance (3P) brings this ideology to life featuring customizable opamps and a powerful multi-gain headphone amplifier contained a tidy enclosure. With connectivity options including TOSLINK, Coaxial, Bluetooth, USB-C and analog inputs, the Conductor 3P will handily serve as a headphone listening hub. Upgrade to the Conductor 3XP, and you’ll trade the traditional RCA audio outputs from the Conductor 3P for fully balanced XLR outputs.

Sound that adapts to you
Featuring Burson Audio’s custom V6 Vivid opamps out of the box, the Conductor 3P and 3XP will impress with their solid state sound signature. The magic of the opamp design philosophy means that you’ll be able to tweak the sound of your amp with a simple swap of the opamp modules and be back listening to your music in no time.
Digital versatility and performance
The Conductor Performance series features the ESS Sabre 9038Q2M DAC, expertly integrated into the digital board by Burson. Each version of the Conductor (both 3P and 3XP) features a USB-C, TOSLINK, Coaxial, Bluetooth and analog audio input, giving great flexibility in a compact package. The Conductor 3XP uniquely brings balanced connections to your system as well.
Bringing balanced connectors into the mix
Opt for the Conductor 3XP, and you’ll gain balanced audio outputs, in the form of a 6W balanced headphone output, and with traditional left and right balanced outputs on the rear. These outputs work in tandem with the specialized design work put into the Conductor 3XP to ensure you can make the most of your listening systems’ capabilities.
