Ah thanks for that, I'm glad I asked. I was looking at the 6SN7s but might go for some LinLai or NOS instead.

Those Sophia tubes look absolutely gorgeous. How do they sound? I've been thinking of picking up a pair for my WA6SE.

That is quite the nice looking setup! I see you got Woo's headphone stand too. The Utopia is really amazing with the Euforia 😍

Four is definitely something of a financial commitment at over £400 for the set. I will say that two gold lions as power tubes behind the PSVane 6SN7s really sweetened the treble and extended effects like reverb to my ears so definitely worth it on their own.

Hey all I picked up the Euforia AE a few months ago to replace a Woo Audio WA6SE that turned out not to be dead afterall. Either way... Upgraded tubes to a matched quad of Genelex Gold Lion KT88 and printed myself a DAC enclosure/amp stand. Originally using the Sennheiser HD800, and...

Yes, sorry, I meant to say "leading me to believe it's the adapters". The two pairs of 6DN7 are the only tubes I've had that need the adapter, so no :/ I can't find any cheaper ones anywhere either.

Well this is my second pair of 6DN7s which had the same problem, leading me to believe it's the tubes. Hum is pretty much non-existent with my 6EW7s

Sup guys, I'm looking to get some advice, since I can't find any conclusive information elsewhere. I have a WA6SE with a Sophia 274b and a pair of 6DN7 drivers. I do my listening through the Sennheiser HD800. I'm noticing a lot of hum that: Is faintly present when the volume is at 0 Gets...

I'm using the HD800, so quite high impedance. I've messaged the seller of the tubes. Shame they weren't perfect on the first try. Where did you get yours from?

Yeah, I thought the same about the adapters. It's pretty much a pin to pin conversion, so shouldn't interfere too much. Ahh that's annoying. I guess I'll keep looking :(

As a side note, does anyone have any experience with the Sylvania 6DN7 on a WA6SE? I just got mine and some tube adapters (Admittedly some cheaper ones from Ebay instead of the Woo ones) and there's a prominent hum to them for some reason. This didn't happen with any of my other power/driver...

I had the same reaction! I did have a handful of tubes when I bought the amp, among them were a ShuGang 274B, a couple of General Electric (I think) 274Bs, and a Brimar 5Z4G or something like that. I settled on the Brimar being my favourite, and then the Sophia blew me away. I have the...

Hey no problem!

Got my Sophia 274B in my WA6SE tonight. Here's a long exposure of its glow!

Fair enough. I didn't realise most people used his own builds. Cheers for the heads up :)

Yeah, I see your point and mostly agree. I'm being a little over-cautious if anything because I don't want to break my stuff. From what I've heard, the ones Glenn builds cuts the voltage/current slightly so they don't get overpowered?

Oh, I didn't think I could do that yet because my account is very new. Still, seems like this forum was created so people weren't constantly harassing him for his work. I'll wait and see if anyone else can point me in the right direction first, or if he has time to reply here.

Hey Mordy. I have seen those, but I don't know a great deal about them. I've heard that there are special adapters that 2359glenn makes that allows the tubes to be used with the 6SE, otherwise it'll kill the amp or the tubes. Will they do the same job as Glenn's?

Sup guys! Anyone know where I can get some of those 6SN7 -> 6DE7 adapters for my WA6SE? And would I be making the right decision getting those really sexy looking Psvane ones? Also, take a four second exposure of my setup.

Hey, I'm Nathan. I'm relatively new to the audio thing. Started off with a pair of Beats Pros (cringe). I upgraded to the Sennheiser HD558, then jumped up to the HD800 with a Little Dot MKII. Swapped the LD out for a Woo WA6SE and eagerly awaiting my new Princess 274B. I've also had a...
