Solid State Buffer

First Watt B1

Just to throw my 2 cents in if you find one. The Burson buffer is what Chris Johnson of Parts Connexion called the Cadillac of buffers. It is awesome. I have some very nice systems and components and on my well balanced system there is no negatives with the Burson buffer and big positives. You could put a want add in the classified section and possibly get one that way.

The FirstWatt Pass B-1 is an excellent discrete buffer using high speed JFETs. Hard to beat. If you are handy with a soldering iron you can build one - Pass sells the boards and stuffing guide at PassDIY.com

There's a Burson buffer for sale at John's Hi Fi Exchange in Melbourne for $300 AU.
