    Woo Audio WA8 Eclipse supported tubes

    Hi =) I got this amp and wan to do some tube rolling. I have never tried this before and to be honest I get so confused over all those letters and numbers.

    Full-sized headphones, warm signature, what are my options?

    Hi, I bought a Woo Audio WA8 with a pair of Jomo Audio Trinity Brass IEM's. Unfortunately I am not satisfied with the sound signature on the Trinity (treble is a bit much for me and the bass is severely over-bloated, at least to me) so on the lookout for a new pair. I am after full sized...

    Title says it all. I am buying the IEM's and have my eyes set on the Woo. I really like their products and have owned several full size amps from them. BUT, are there better alternatives out there in roughly the same price range that might be a better choice? Hope I can get some help. = )

    Best IEM for electronic (trance) music - price not important

    Topic clearly states it.   I am after a warm, rich and detailed sound, musical if you will. Bass is not overly important.   Only universal fit IEM's.   I've looked at the Westone UM3x but would like to know if there might be something better out there. My knowledge of IEM's are slim...

    Chord Blu+DAC64 or Wadia 581i?

    I have been searching the net for a good CD player, but I also need a DAC. I found these two solutions but would be good to hear some thoughts on this. On a side note... The Blu has a DAC built in, so why do they use the DAC64 combo in different reviews around the net? Other fine CD players...

    Well, hehe, This is kinda weird. A guy is selling a new pair of these for 900? The ad was on ebay. It was pretty quickly down and he said he got an offer so he took it down.
