Thanks for the pix Skeptic, just as Jack told me in a somewhat cryptic way, stock socket pins are also gold plated. So I decided to go with the ceramic sockets in lieu of the Teflon upgrade and ordered WA2. I will report back when I get it - with pictures of course! Jack estimates 4 weeks build time.

Would the Wa3 or Wa6 be a huge upgrade over a LittleDot MKIII? I'm currently mulling over upgrading my amp and I am also on the waiting list for a pair of Audeze LCD-2 so if I do decide on buying them I'd need an amp to match with the 650s and LCD2... In that case the WA6 would be best right? What about just WA3 vs LD3? Is it worth the swap price?

You're welcome, and thanks for sharing the info from Jack regarding gold plating on all of the sockets. Good to have that issue resolved.
I'll look forward to your WA2 pics. It is a wonderful HP amp, and I have no doubt that it will bring you many years of profound enjoyment

Get the 6. Great pairing with the HD650 and much more versatile with lower impedance phones.
