I have tried (meaning bought and lived with for an extended period, not just briefly listened to) dozens of amps. I've owned a WA6 and WA22. The WA22 had about $600-700 worth of upgrade tubes. I had it before I built my Crack. As soon as I built the Crack (and had lived with it long enough to be sure that what I was hearing was real), I sold the WA22 and have never regretted it. The Crack demolished the WA22 with my HD800s. By comparison, the WA22 sounded thick, slow and muffled. Of course, the WA6 and WA22 are WOT, which might account for the difference, and I have certainly heard good things about the WA2 (which is obviously OTL).
Best regards,
Adam
