What does everyone think about using a DAC w/ tube stage and an amp w/ tube stage together?
In particular, an MHDT DAC (Havana w/ Bendix 6385) and Woo Audio (WA6 w/ Sophia Princess) amp. Anybody tried this before?

The only one I know of is DarKu. He has Woo Audio 6 SE though.

Hello there 

i use custom build Nos Dac with custom design valve stage +audiophile power supply .

It is classic Tda 1543 but with this combo it played beautiful music .

I use it with custom design T class amp with valve stage and that combo in opinion beats classic valve stage amp. Combo is just amazing very analog like I compare to friends rega moon ....my friend selling his gear to buy that type of combo I'm not joking .

 You would love it .

best regards 

tom

Bottlehead is designing a Nos DAC with tube stage which I was able to hear last weekend.  Its sound was very compelling and I am really looking forward to the release of the production version.

I am not familiar with the products you are inquiring about, but I just wanted to say if done right, the combo of tube dac with tube amp can sound amazing. That is what I run. Make sure you get some silver interconnects.
