For sale is my Woo Audio WA6-SE (Gen 1). Well loved and well listened to, but I have no headphones at the moment that benefit from the OTC design, so it's time for it to find a new owner.
A little history about this amp here: it's a pre-2010 version, meaning it can't take 6DF7 tubes and the like, which is something I did not know until buying it 7 months ago. The condition is excellent, as you can see from the photos, and there are barely any scratches (I found one which is pictured). The amp's age is the only reason the condition is marked as "good." It was also recently sent to Woo Audio for a tune-up ad inspection with a WA6-SE box with custom foam inserts they shipped to me, so it'll ship out in the same box. They took it in, inspected it, tighened both input jacks and a loose screw in the transformer, cleaned it up, and sent it back to me within factory spec. So you'll be getting essentially a factory spec amp, with a power cord included, OH and with some great of tubes...
On the amp in the photo is the well-known Brimar 5Z4GY, which has a very slight hum out of the high impedence jack (Mike from Woo Audio told me this was to be expected with that tube) but super addicting sound, and a pair of Toshiba 6DE7's from Woo Audio. The 6DE7's cost $200 and sound like it, and the Brimar was around $50 from England and sounds like more. The other tubes available with the amp include the following input tubes: two pairs of 6EW7's (one from ebay, the other from Woo Audio - another $200 value combined), two pairs of Sylvania 6DE7's (also from ebay), a pair wonderful of Selectron 6DE7's (ebay), and then three rectifiers: the stock rectifier (which Woo Audio sold me to be used as a reference) the Electro-Harmonix 5U4G the amp came to me with, a Mullard-made CV593 (ebay), and a Preferred Series 274B (from TheTubeStore.com), which gives some extra bass bloom and increases the soundstage quite a bit. All were bought NOS except the older Sylvanias, and all have far less than 100 hours on them.
Becasue the box only can fit one pair of 6DE7's and two rectifiers, you can pick any two of the rectifiers and one pair of power tubes from above for me to ship with it. If you want the other tubes I'll sell them separately for $100 (shipping and PP included) as they will have to go in another box. So it's $600 for the amp + your choice of tubes or $700 for the whole kit and caboodle.
And that's all folks! PM for any inquiries. PP fees and shipping included for all. No trades. Thanks for looking!
