And you need a third amp to drive your HE-6 phones, of course. Which probably means, if you listen to discs, you need another CD player too, just to add to all this fun.

Any word on how that WEE is working?
 
How much power from speaker amps does it need?

What are some great headphone amps that would work well with WEE + SR-009?

You would have to find a headphone amp that also has speaker level outputs.  The site states that 3 watts is enough to drive Stax headphones "effortlessly".
 
Depending on my BHSE delivery time I may get an WEE, and try it from my 35 watt PP amp, and the 5 watt KT88 SE amp I plan to build once I finish moving.

Seriously, just do it properly and buy two amps, one 'stat and one dynamic. You'll get much better results than trying to kludge.

IMO, the most versatile electrostatic amp would have to be a BHSE w/ RK50, with Pro + Normal jacks. Will drive SR-009, OII, etc, plus the array of legacy Normal-bias headphones!
 
I agree with 2 amps as well. BHSE + GS-X MKII. I recently chose not to go that path though.

I´m planning to yes, but the proper amps like LL and BHSE are not available until 4-5 months.
 
So please give me some names of amps that are good with WEE?

Trends TA-10 series T-amps (speaker amps) are inexpensive and do a decent job. I used a maxed out 10.1 and SRD7-Pro with a pair of HE60s for a while; decent+ sound.
 
Plus side: You'll then have a nice little speaker amp after you get a dedicated stat amp. Minus: At the same combined price point, you'll get better detail (and maybe better resale potential) out of a used stat amp.

Do not use a bridged amp with the WEE, it will blow up.  That includes any "digital" switching amp.

What is wrong with the T1 with the 009's? It's starting to look like my KGSS is going in the closet for a while.

Eddie Current 2A3 + Woo WEE = profit (You don't need high power to drive stats with a WEE, I've done it with a similar.)

I've used the exact same (WEE w/ SR-009) with my Cary SLI-80 F1, it's very "ballsy". HP amp, speaker amp, & stat amp, it does it all, and does it really well.

Anybody using a WEE with anything other then a throw away Stax headphone better check what "bias supply" is in there.  No ballast resistors and other "nice" bits in some of these units...
