I don't know what kind of standard those guys live with.
Standard CD maximum output level is 2V RMS. Even the peak to peak equivalent voltage of that is less than 6V. Most power amplifiers are designed with a gain set to output maximum wattage with a 0.5V RMS input. "Standard' line level is generally regarded as between 0.5V to 1V RMS. I don't know where the heck they got that 24V rubbish. It can be the max peak to peak voltage output of an active stage/opamp supplied at +/-12VDC, but it absolutely is NOT any kind of standard output level for any cd, sacd or etc.
Strange that they managed to find the output impedance figures of the CDPs to put on their web, yet miss totally the output level figures which is right next to it on the specifications page.
cdbd - "Are you sure this isnt a joke?", well, it is much more scary to know that this company has long been in existence and the Burson op-amp is in fact pretty well-known, and not too long ago someone had started a thread about it: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=146876

I still think these people make them, and Burson re-label them.

Divide the numbers by 10 and they make more sense.Emailed to Burson sales dept:
Dear Sir,
Your discussion of standard signal line level on your website (http://www.bursonaudio.com/burson_buffer_160.htm) is wholly inaccurate.
If this is an honest error and it is not your intention to sell your products on the back of lies, I trust you will remove the inaccurate information immediately.

They did remove the inaccurate information immediately and replaced it with something less glaring but still as unconvincing.
The impedance mismatch part stayed and is used on the PC AUDIO & IPOD section instead. If the person in charge of writing this had any sort of advanced engineering knowledge I'd have guessed that he would also look through and correct any other mistakes rather than getting other people to point it out for them, but this wasn't my expectation to begin with.
And he wouldn't have mistaken this for the output stage of a sound card:
When it is just a bunch of capacitors and resistors... for the midi port.
They got the other two correct though, but 67% accuracy doesn't spell good for a professional.
I wish I'd taken a screenshot of the original content to see how this unravels.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Yup. It's still there. Capture it while you can.
