Yes of course

I believe you mean rectifier tube.

I didn't realize that was the technical term. Which leads to think there might be thread somewhere on head-fi discussing the differences between rolling rectifier v.s. main tubes, and the impacts that has on audio.

This one is good

However 12au7 in a roll as rectifier is unique to the WA7tp so specific info is scarce

A google search for tube rectifier will probably yield some useful background info as well

Further on the WA7tp
I purchased one of the first WA7 off the line and ran with the SS power supply for almost a year before switching to the Tube ps
I was surprised and delighted at the improvement the tube ps brought to an amp I was already very happy with
All of the great points in the WA7 character were lifted an extra notch
On top of all that I have been further surprised at the amount of tweaking that can be accomplished by rolling tubes in the ps

I've been listening to my WA7 with a pair of vintage mullards cv4003 and almost right out of the box it made a noticeable improvement, Voices became more natural,more details in the music,almost a 3d sound really smooth with better bass. These tubes made a big difference to my ears. I would highly recommend them..

Give us your impression on what you think pairs well with the WA7+TP combo!
 
Boy... you're gonna make me spend again Mike

FYI - This has dropped on Massdrop with the lowest price being $799.99. There is an option for the Tube powersupply for an additional $320

I can't see what tubes you have there, If you only have the WA7 without the WA7tp the tubes won't work. The tubes I use are only for the WA7tp.. Unless there some variant of a 6C45

What an awesome price, I'll have to check & see if they have any deals on the wa6se that would be very cool...

hiii... i am considering purchasing this amplifier. i was wondering if anyone here ever compared the sonic performance of the WA7 vs the Schiit Lyr 2 + Bifrost Uber combo. I was also hoping someone could describe the sonic differences between the solid state vs tube power supply. thank you!

I've had a chance to test both and I personally prefer the Woo Audio setup. It's the most musical amp I have ever listened to. On top of that, the build quality and service is far better than Schiit. The Woo Audio does not feel like something that costs $1000, let alone the Massdrop group buy going on right now. Plus, Jack and Mike ensures every customer is properly taken care of. It's a no brainer to me.

Make sure to get the TP version as well!

The mass drop price is very tempting for me. Quick question, how do I connect my iPhone 6 to this dac/amp? I also have a Cypher Labs CLAS-R which has a coaxial input...
