I don't find Paradisea 3 warm at all and that was the reason I moved up to Havana and now with the HiFi Tuning fuse which add additional warmth, I am still replacing the output capacitors which may turn the DAC even warmer....

Did you have your Paradisea 3 with your Woo Audio 6? If so, how did they sound together?
