Always Sounds Great...

After a few minutes of warm up you should be ready to go, at least that's all the time my WA6SE max takes.

However your new WA6SE max will take a few hundred hours to really reach the sweet point and start to stabilize. But after about 50 hours it will start to sound very nice.

My WA6SE always sounds great... though... I usually allow it to warm up for at least 10 minutes... before listening through it.

But... it sounds much better... after its warmed up for a couple of hours, or so - much more detailed, with a more open, airy, 3D sound stage.

I've only got about 150+ playing hours on it - so, it may be much more stable after a lot more burn in (with less variation in its sound as it warms up).

Yes your WA6SE will continue to stabilize until about 800 hours.
I should note that my 6SE has the upgraded parts and the DACT.
Also note that Mesh plate Rectifier tube's are more sensitive to vibration.

Hello Grandofan2 and Takezo:

 

Would you mind if I cite your comments in another forum?

 

AndAudio is the biggest Headset forum in Taiwan and we have more and more Woo users here.

However, most of us don't have knowledge and experience of tubes.

I decide to share the knowledge I learn from Headfi.

 

If you don't feel comfortable about it, please let me know.

I will remove it.

 

Thanks & regards;

Ivan.
