Woo Wa22 balanced vs unbalanced input
@ardilla, I pasted a quote from the mfg's posted design philosophy. XLR output DEFAULT : Average level (0 VU) = +4dBu= 1.228 VRMS on XLR (between pin 2 and 3) Output trim (adjustable in menu) = -18dBFS Max output (sinewave) 9.79V RMS or 13.84V Peak or 27.69 V Peak to peak (Voltage swing)...- nututubes

Woo Wa22 balanced vs unbalanced input
tomlink, thank you for your excellent description of operation. I also use the MyTek 192 to feed my WA22 / HD800 combo. I use the straight pass through mode. The WA22 input really comes alive with the higher voltage balanced output of the MyTek (higher than my previous setup). I chose to use a...- nututubes

Mytek Stereo 192 DSD DAC/Preamp/Amplifier Thread
Quote: Hello DG, FWIW I also have the MyTek 192. I didn't find the MyTek HF output to be sufficient for driving my HD800s. I now run the MyTek balanced outputs in "volume bypass mode" directly to my WA22 balanced inputs. I had been using the WA22 to power the HD800s, but I now feel that the...- nututubes

Mytek Stereo 192 DSD DAC/Preamp/Amplifier Thread
I don't own the Mytek 192 DSD yet. I do have a Woo WA22 balanced that I currently use with my Sennheiser HD800s. I plan to use the Mytek XLR balanced output to WA22 balanced input. The question that I would like to ask is if anyone has tried the Mytek XLR analog outputs direct to HD800s? or must...- nututubes
