Remember to replace the crappy stock tubes with something nice! Old Mullard's and Amperex tubes would really make it sound much better! Your gear is only as good as the weakest link, in your case, the tube.
 

Thanks man...I'll check it out.  So far quite a strong headphone out....enjoyable.  The speaker outs are supposed to be like 85 watts per channel I think, and the Leben's were like 15 watts if I remember correctly.  The Leben wins that contest by a fair margin with my small KEF Q1's.

Here's another vote for the fisher. Any of the x or kx series. I have a x100c and it sounds excellent. Another member here bought one needing repair. He quickly sold his wa22 soon after he got it serviced. I'm not saying it's better than the woo, but at the very least, it's not far behind as a headphone amp and the speaker outs provides 25wpc and sounds excellent as well. Many owners say their easily on par with 2000.00 tube speaker amps.
