That sounds great. I can't wait to get it myself. Will be using it with my UE18s since I have to keep it silent for the other half. I was told by the guys at Woo that it should be hiss free even with IEMs which is what I was searching for. Exciting days! C- Catch

Hmm, not headphone amps in the same league. I have the new ALO Continental V3 and the RSA Shadow for headphones. I generally listen to my big rig which is McIntosh tube amps. Not sure how that would compare as its such a leap in price and a very different listening experience with the big...- Catch

WooAudio WA6 Upgrades
I don't know I'm afraid. I have never heard the SE. I have ordered the WA6 for the same reason as you. It's a space thing. I wanted a bedside rig to use with headphones without upsetting the other half. I have not received it yet though so can't comment on sound either. Hoping to get it in a few...- Catch

ALO Audio Continental V3 Impressions and Appreciation Thread
Don't get me wrong, the V3 does have a great sound. It's just the hiss getting me down on it a bit. Obviously it gets buried in faster paced music. Things like Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree, Dire Straits really make it stand out. I am also hesitant about judging it right now as it has so few hours...- Catch

ALO Audio Continental V3 Impressions and Appreciation Thread
I actually find it brighter than I originally thought. Having spent more time with it I don't get the 'tube' sound I get from my big system. I am driving it with my DX100 and it sounds pretty good. Having said that, I bought it for use with IEMs and I am finding it has too much hiss for my...- Catch

ALO Audio Continental V3 Impressions and Appreciation Thread
I just received my V3 so have not had much chance to listen to it past 15 or so minutes. I don't think it's bright at all. I am pro tube and my main system is tubes as well. I don't like a 'bright' sound, but I positively loved my short time with the Continental. Hoping to spend allot more time...- Catch

Ok thanks for clarifying this. I have seen so much talk about upgrades but found it impossible to see any more than tube upgrades on the website. Will speak to them directly re this then. Thanks! C- Catch

WooAudio WA6 Upgrades
Hi, I am hoping to place an order for this amp in the next week or so. I have been reading allot about it in reviews and on the threads here. It sounds like the amp I am looking for. My large system is tube based and so I am looking for a similar setup but with a 'one box' solution for my...- Catch

Well... I have been doing allot of side by side and using CD as a source on everything from Rock to Classical and now 'I may be hearing things ' but it feels/sounds like at 128 some of the sparkle of the music is gone... at 196 I still can't hear anything but Ill keep listening Really I...- Catch

E5c and AAC... are my ears dead?
Cheers for the replies guys. As I have a pretty large collection of CDs to compress I am going to settle on 320 only because I worry that getting better kit down the road will leave me needing to redigitize all the music all over. And psychologically it feels safe... C- Catch

E5c and AAC... are my ears dead?
I have just got my E5cs and they sound a million times better than my old MX-71s but... I am finding it very hard to tell the difference between AACs encoded at 128, 256 and ALAC. I have been listening on my headphone out socket on my PowerMac G5 and an iPod Mini... My question: Is it the...- Catch
