"I received and testdrove (the B2 DAC) against the Mytek 8x192 on Saturday.  YOU FUCKIN NAILED THE GLORY RICH!  Interesting that it's so much wider than the purportedly wide, not deep digital.  The smile planted on my face from kick drums pretty much told my brain what was going on. Praised be Oh-holy analog.  The alter has been resurrected."

"Hey Rich - I wanted to relate my experiences with your unit - wow.

My trusty Apogee took a dive recently and I swapped over to the Burl as my primary console A to D 100% of the time - I'm really really impressed!  Amazed at the range of styles I can throw at it and the variable input level give me a whole other set of tonal colors at my hands that I previously had to do more EQ or Compression to achieve.  I feel like a kid again and my clients are raving about the results too.

Many thanks to you my friend - your B2 will be an integral part of my mastering chain for the foreseeable future. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!"
- Stephen Marsh, Stephen Marsh Mastering, Incubus, Los Lobos, Kenny Loggins, Coco Montoya

“Once you’ve heard the Burl B2, there is no going back. To my ears the whole mix sounds more dynamic, wider and deeper. Great converters.”

- Michael Wagener, Metallica, Alice Cooper, Ozyy Osborne, Motley Crue

"The Burl B1 Mic Pres are of superior sonic quality, and by utilizing variable gain and level combinations, the B1s can be used in virtually any recording situation."
- Joe Wissert, Producer, Earth Wind and Fire, Boz Scaggs, The Turtles, Ruffworld Studio...

"Put a B1, a B2, and a ribbon mic in front of a guitar amp, and the midrange is so good it will make you cry."
- Ryan Hewitt, Engineer/Producer, Red Hot Chili Peppers (Grammy Winner), Blink-182, Bob Dylan, Floggin Molly, Tom Petty...

"I've been using the B1D and I really dig it! I've tried the B1D with bass and guitars and love how you can compress the signal by driving the gain. It sounds great on heavy guitars!!"
- Rick Beato, Engineer/Producer, Creed, Shinedown, Needtobreathe, Bullet For My Valentine, Tyler Read,...

"I found the Burl microphone preamplifiers to be of very high quality and added an interesting color to everything on which they were used."
- Richard Bosworth, Engineer/Producer, Barbara Streisand, Don Henly, Warren Zevon, The Jacksons...

"After listening to the B2 I wanted to get an idea what was out there, so I demo-loaned 5 converters from Cutting Edge Audio in SF and did a brief shootout of my own. With each converter I recorded a rock mix from 2" tape through my Board into PT HD at 88.2k, 24 bit. ...openness on the high end, slight saturation / warmth, and deep bottom and "a 3d sound" describe it perfectly.  None of the other converters had such a deep bottom or smooth highs.  The B2's stereo image was the only one that sounded 3D.  The first thing I noticed was the kick drum, then the bass.  Really deep, warm and round.  Frankly, none of the other converters I tried sounded much better than the 192 with the Big Ben.  In my little shootout, the B2 stands out as the only one that actually sounds like analog.  I don't know how you did it, but hats off!

The other A/B comparison I did was in tracking a female vocal through a U67 and a Neve 31105 pre.  I only had time to compare the B2 to the 192/Big Ben.  It was immediately apparent that the B2 sounded way more clear, smooth, and natural.  She sounded "prettier" through it.  Kind of like taking away the mic and listening to her directly. "

"The B1 Mic Pre and B2 Bomber ADC are both superbly designed and constructed in every way. But most importantly their sound is fantastic!  This combination produces the slightly compressed "liquid-mid" of my Steinway-D piano that I have been searching for.  It is the closest thing to analog I've ever heard minus the tape noise."
- George Stone, Director of Audio Technology at Cuesta College, when using 2 B1's and a B2.

"Just got the Burl B2, and it sounds GREAT!
Thank you so much."
- Chris Sorenson, Saosin

"...I have heard the B2 and I REALLY love the sound. It’s about dam time somebody does this right."
- Danny Curtean

"I just bought a B2 Bomber and I am really impressed about the quality of this converter. We made a test with Cranesong, Weiss, Apogee and the Burl, and the Burl beat them and convinced us all! Sounds more 3 dimensional than the others..
Best wishes from Berlin"
