The Ultimate ESS9039PRO DAC / Head Amp – Fully Unleashed​
At the heart of the Conductor Voyager is the ESS9039PRO DAC — the most advanced chip from ESS Technology, delivering stunning resolution, dynamic contrast, and ultra-low distortion.
Even the best DAC needs the right stage to shine. That’s why we built fully discrete I/V and LP stages, custom-tuned for the 9039PRO. With dual mono architecture and Burson V7 opamps, it transforms digital signals into an immersive, lifelike performance.
Pure Class-A Power for Every Headphone​
The Conductor Voyager is more than a DAC—it’s an apex Class-A headphone amplifier. Powered by our Max Current Power Supply and delivering up to 10W of pure Class-A power, it drives everything from IEMs to planar magnetic headphones with effortless control, razor-sharp transients, and a silent background that reveals every detail.
Each channel features four high-current gain Onsemi MJE15032 power transistors, made in the USA. These transistors shine under our elevated Class-A bias, delivering the headroom, control, and emotional impact that define the Burson sound.
Precision-Tuned for the ESS9039PRO – Just Sit Back and Enjoy​
The ESS9039PRO DAC offers 24 filter and path settings—but we’ve done the tuning for you. Each filter is precision-matched to our discrete Class-A analog stage, delivering sound that’s natural, dynamic, and unmistakably Burson.
No guesswork. Just pure, reference-quality playback.
Universal Connectivity – High-Resolution, Hassle-Free​
The Conductor Voyager connects effortlessly with every digital source:
- USB-C XMOS interface: Supports native DSD512 and 32-bit/786kHz PCM
- Bluetooth 5.0 (Qualcomm CSR8675): Streams in LDAC, aptX HD, and AAC up to 24-bit/96kHz
- Roon Tested: Seamless integration with any Roon Ready system
And for gamers, a low-latency headphone output delivers immersive soundscapes with precision and impact—whether it’s an orchestral score or a battlefield explosion.
Silent Power – Cleaner Than Batteries​
The Conductor Voyager features seven Burson Silent Power Modules, delivering voltage regulation up to 200 times quieter than standard regulators. The result? Zero background noise, zero distractions—just pure music.
Head+Sub Mode – Feel the Sound​
With Head+Sub Mode, pair a subwoofer with your open-back headphones for a cinematic, full-body experience.
From music to movies to games, it’s an immersive headphone setup that lets you feel every moment.
All-New Remote – Control with Style
The Conductor Voyager comes with a brand-new remote control that looks as extraordinary as it performs. Finished in matching space grey and copper, it complements the Voyager’s aesthetic while giving you intuitive, full-range control from up to 10 metres away.
Powered by two AAA batteries for 12+ months of operation, it’s sleek, solid, and futuristic—not just a remote, but an extension of the Voyager experience..
Fusion Core Power Supply – Clean. Efficient. Revolutionary.​
Powered by GaN transistors and a 1MHz switching frequency, the Burson Fusion Core delivers 360W of ultra-clean power with zero ground loop noise.
Smaller, quieter, and more efficient than linear or switch-mode supplies — it’s silent, powerful, and built for high-end audio.
More Than a DAC – A Musical Experience
The Burson Conductor Voyager is our vision of what high-end audio should be. It brings together cutting-edge engineering, musical soul, and a timeless aesthetic. Whether you’re streaming from your laptop, spinning vinyl, or diving into a late-night headphone session, the Voyager elevates your entire system.
From quiet moments to sonic showdowns, this flagship DAC/headphone amp/preamp transforms your listening into a high-fidelity experience worth savouring.
