Amp for GS1000i ?

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 

Hey guys, newb here so bear with me. I purchased a pair of Grado GS1000i's awhile ago along with a PS Audio GCHA amp to run them. Everything was okay for awhile, now I find myself wanting to go to that next level.

 

I have my eye on a maxed out version of the WA-6SE from Woo but I'm unsure of what to do. The WA-5LE would only be an extra 4-500 bucks for the basic version compared to the upgraded 6SE. Is the 5 worth the extra? I cannot afford any upgrades on it so it would just be the basic version.

 

The entire setup is for analog only, no cd's or mp3's. My table setup is a Clearaudio Performance SE, Dynavector 17D3 cartridge with Dynavector P-75 MKII phono pre. So again, will the 6SE be enough considering my modest vinyl setup or would the stretch to the 5LE be worth it?

 

I apologize in advance, you guys probably get spammed with these posts but with no way to audition anything, forums are my only real resource.

 

Regards,

I would suggest to go to a Head-fi mini meet in your area? You would be able to try out your cans on different rigs and be able to ask and get answers to your questions face to face?
