Just wanted to share my new set up with you guys...what do you think? Sounds lovely..I love SACD files on Ifi DSD

Hey cats, just upgraded from k702/apogee quartet to Ifi dsd, Ifi usb 3 and hifiman 560... I love the resolution from sacd resources with the new set up, and the resolution from the hifiman 560- it's very engaging. But I must say k702 was no slouch after all these years. Maybe the wa6se is so...

My current set up....

I'm curious now it will match up with a wa6se!!!

Great! We will also get the Ifi idsd micro, to upgrade from my Apogee Quartet I'm using as a dac. I've downloaded DSD files, and I can really hear a huge difference between flac and dsd, in my current set up. Will iDsd will also make a difference in sound?

Hello Friends,  I currently have a system of AKG 702 and Woo6se amp. I'm a professional jazz drummer and my wife a is professional classical bassist. I had bought the 702s to hear the cymbals in most neutral way possible, but my wife says weak bass of the AKG is not a neutral sound, it's just...

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on a HE560. Do you guys have any experience with wa6se and He560 pairing? Would it work ok?

He560 looks great but it's little stretching my budget. I was thinking more $500 dollars. Maybe that is not enough to upgrade from my 702s?

Great, Thanks!!! Less gear I haul around, the better. 

Hello Friends,   I'm a long time happy owner of a upgraded wa6se.. My headphones are Akg 702s.   I have been with this same gear for about 5 years, enjoying my gear. I'm not really into tube rolling, or buying/selling/trying a lot of new gear. After a long time with this set up, I just feel...

Hello Friends, I'm going to purchase a new dap for my ER4S, most probably the Fiio X5 II. Do you think I need the amp  (E12A) that fits this dap, to get a sound? Or would E12 work more likely for ER4S? Any body here own this combo?? (ER4S + fiioX5 + amp/no amp?)

Hello friends, Does anybody know which DAP has an A-B loop function, and if possibly a slow down function? I'm a practicing musician, and this feature really helps practicing along. I have this on my as an app on my iPad, but it would be nice to have a dap with this capability.

Dear friends, This has been asked before On this thread, but got some varied answers. Can the Er4-pt really equal the Er4s with the included adaptor? Is there any loss in quality of sound?

shoot..I just ordered a Fulla yesterday without reading this thread. I just assumed Fulla would be fine like other schiit products. I just wanted something convenient for my Etymotic IEMs. I had no idea there were so many complaints. Just out of curiosity, can we take a poll of how many...

Hello Friends..   Im a happy owner of Wa6se/AKG 702..I've had this combination for few years now, and been happy about it. At the time I wanted to hear more SS sounding, accurate, well defined cymbals in my jazz recordings. I never tried a different amp, except for the headphone out on my...

Dear Friends,  Im a proud and happy owner of 6SE...I use it with with akg701. I had this set up for 4 years now, and it works for me.      I was wondering if I can use the 6SE as a preamp for my powered studio monitors. I can use the headphone out directly into the monitors. Has anybody...

Between 400-700$. I know this hobby is about non dimishing returns, I just can't justify paying more than thousand dollars right now. But I do love my wa6se, and I would like to bring out it it's full potential.

Quote: Thank you... Any recommendations for headphones for this set up for acoustic music??   I was thinking Sennheiser 600s?

Hello Everyone!   I haven't posted here in ages.. But I'm back..   Since we are talking about k701/702s with wa6se..I have a question..   I've been a happy owner of K702 with wa6se with blackgates, sophia for couple of years. I own a dacportLX dac.   I listen mainly to jazz...

Hello Woo audio friends...   Just letting you know, unfortunately I will be selling my Woo Audio 6se in August. (I'm moving countries, and I need to downsize...I will build a portable system instead of my current desktop set)     I had ordered it with the black gate upgrades. It also...

Update on my new 6GL7 tubes with the Woo adaptors...   I had reported a high static noise issue in a post few days ago..    The noise was coming from my dac. I got new usb a-sync dac and the noise is gone. (My new dac is a dacport lx by the way)     I love my WA6SE.

  Quote:   Ok, after 2 hours, the noise dropped drastically. Not dead silent like the 6EW7s, but not bad at all. Now there just some white noise when I turn it all the way up. I wonder what that was all about but I'm much happier :) maybe the adaptors needed to burn in?

Ok, Finally got my 6GL7 to 6DE7 adaptors, and some 6GL7 tubes for my WA6SE.. I also switched back to my Sophia.   WOWeee. This set up, completely changed the character of the amp from the stock tubes.   My initial experience is the amp is about twice, or one/third more powerful than...
