    Woo Audio WA7TP (tube power supply) Impressions Thread

    Hi all,   Selling the short DC cord (1 ft/30 cm) that connects the two units -- shoot me a PM if interested! :)

    MCINTOSH LABS INTRODUCES NEW HEADPHONE AMP MODEL MHA 100

    Don't know if it was mentioned, but has anyone hooked up their MHA100 with a Chord Mojo DAC? Wondering if that's a good pairing, as the McIntosh DAC seems to be its weakness (it doesn't even do DSD for goodness sakes)...

      $4K and it doesn't even do DSD? That's a shame...

      Lol whoops, my bad -- thanks to the both of you regardless!   And thanks to the SleepyOne for identifying the mystery machine :)

    Woo Audio WA8 Review - Head-Fi TV

    Hand Banana, that's one sweet transportable setup you've got there -- would love to know where I can get my own hands on a Pelican case like that. I ordered a case from Tube Depot, and it looks nothing alike.

      LOL. I love this description. So great.     Metal or plastic knob, can anyone confirm?

    Gah! It's posts like yours that make me waver in my resolve to wait until Black Friday before ordering!    Since I'm also based in Toronto...

    Can someone who's received their GOLD wa8 unit post a picture of it running under dim lighting? Thanks in advance!

    MCINTOSH LABS INTRODUCES NEW HEADPHONE AMP MODEL MHA 100

    Well, the WA7+tp combo sounds a tad more natural to my ears, and the human voice in particular seems to have more "presence" and "air."  Whereas McIntosh seems to resolve more detail, and is "smoother." Or at least that's how I remember it.   I've only heard the HE1000 once, so I can't comment...

    Thanks Koolpep. Looks to be an audiophile-grade Monoprice cable. Lol.

    Surprised that a USB cable is being included, since Woo doesn't normally include things like that. I wonder if there is anything special about that cable. Maybe the cable colour matches the amp? That'd be cool...

    Maelob is right -- I own and enjoy both the MHA100 and the WA7+tp. And I probably wouldn't keep the McIntosh if not for the very useful speaker output.

      Leaning towards gold as well, even though I think a more conventional colour like black or silver would sell easier on the used market (where buyers tend to be more price sensitive). But subjectively, the gold finish plus tube glow just evokes more of that warm tube goodness to me.    ...
