Great seller. Beautiful amp. Thanks again!

I never noticed the issue with the pot until I got my Clears. Had used it prior with the 600/800s/LCD-X which require me to turn the knob past the 9-10 mark. Deciding on my options. I plan to find a way to attenuate the balanced signal between my Schiit Modius and LP but haven't decided on the...

The common misconception is technology vs. design. Balanced cables are not better than unbalanced cables in most use cases. However, balanced outputs on balanced amplifiers often are designed to deliver more power than additional unbalanced ports that were added for cable compatibility. This is...

What did you end up picking up?

Thank you for introducing me to Fostex. Great seller. Great communication. Quick shipment across the country. A very positive buying experience.

Tung-Sol 7236. I have the WA3 connected to the unbalanced output on my Schiit Modius. The WA3 works fine with my Amperex 6922 and JJ 6922 using the same power tube. Just not the EH 6922 for some reason.

Has anyone had bad experiences with EH 6922s on the WA3? Tried two different sets and they both had hum, despite working fine on my Liquid Platinum.

Just rolled a pair of Amperex Bugle Boy D-Getter ECC88s (not sure of production year) and I love the result. Very warm, liquidy, smooth signature. Plus, it's cool to have tubes made 60 years ago.

Got a hell of a deal on a WA3 and tube collection. WA3 Preamp Tubes: Amperex Bugle Boy 6922, EH 6922, JJ 6922 Power Tubes: Tung-sol 6080, RCA 6080, Westinghouse 6080 All for $330. So far I’m loving it. Pairs well with my 650 and 800 S.

Is this the kit or an assembled model? Edit: Nm, reread the post. My apologies.

New owner here. This is a long thread and seems to be less active nowadays. Can someone recommend a socket saver that's currently available for order? I'm looking to try out various tubes. Any recommendations for a warmer (that stock EH) but detailed signature?

I read it as 800(s) since there’s two of them.

So, something strange happened to me. I bought a lightly used LP (late 2021 model) and it has worked perfectly for the past week. Today, I had a pentaconn to XLR adapter delivered and it made my 660S/800S sound fantastic with their included balanced pentaconn cables. However, just now I...

Looking for an assembled Bottlehead Crack tube amplifier for my Sennheisers.

Looking for a Bottlehead Crack tube amplifier for my Sennheisers.

V-Moda quietly changed their Immortal Life Program. Now they only offer 20% of the headphone value. They conveniently waited to add the M100 Master and M200 to the step up until changing their policy. So now upgrading from M100s will only give you $50 off (vs. $125 off previously). On social...

How does the BL01 compare to the BL03?

I actually messaged you about them but I don’t blame you for keeping them. Ended up getting a pair and am absolutely blown away.

Lmao. Alright, cool. I’m going to order them and report back.
