Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite
Something shiny new to join the blackness of the WOO.... Now I have to start re-listening to all my reference tracks again and do alot of 650 vs 800 comparisons. Initial impressions compared to 650's from WA6SE w/stock tubes. More open (like removing cotton from my ears after...- GouldPhoto

It's dark, looking at my reflection in the window, soft glow of tubes from the Woo, Pink Floyd playing, waiting for my wife to get home. Life is good. Tomorrow will see the Pink Floyd box set arrive, and comparative listening begins...- GouldPhoto

So now that I have mentioned Woo, I see there are Experience, Immersion and Discovery Box set (all studio recordings remastered). I think the Discovery Box Set is a...- GouldPhoto

I am officially a Woo owner now. After a walk in the park with my wife this morning, we were discussing if we should go out for lunch or wait for FedEX to arrive. Before I could answer a van pulled up in front of the house and the driver was carrying a box labeled WOO AUDIO. What perfect...- GouldPhoto

Headphone case search
I am using a case that came with my color calibration hardware/software. It is the perfect size to put the original Senn foam in and have room for cables and misc stuff. I made a cutout for ipod/nano, have the LOD, portable amp, charger, earbuds in there. It does not have a lock on it, other... -

Bookshelf / Standmount Speaker Decisions
I'll throw in my 2 cents. After listening to Paradigm Studio 20, PSB Image B, Totem Rainmaker and Rega R1 bookshelf speakers, I ended up with a pair of Totem Rainmakers for my desktop speaker rig. I am using them nearfield and they sound wonderful. I also tried them out in a larger room which... -

Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
First brief listening. Like Hellenback I am using this amp to drive HD650's. So I have iPhone (lossless music) > whiplash audio LOD > Arrow > Blue Dragon Cable > HD650. This little sliver of an amp can really grab hold of the 650's and push them. Started with some familiar albums that I...- GouldPhoto
