WA5 LE or WA22? What a tough call
Well I've seen some comparison thread on these two great amp. I was almost ordered the WA22 however since i got a slight hope that Jack "may" could do the parts upgrade for the WA22. However, on a second thought, if I could do the upgrade on the wa22 the price would be very close to the WA5LE...- BrucYSN

Woo WA22 with LCD2 - my tube rolling notes
This is going to be a bit of a long post, but here's a quick synopsis: I set out to do some tube rolling on my WA22 to see what mated best with the LCD2. At first, they really did not sound good., I found the amp/can combo to be sensitive to tube changes, but in the end got to a great sounding...- jerico

Best Headphone for the Woo WA22
I finally ordered the Woo WA22. Currently I own AKG K701's. I listened to beyerdynamic T-1 at Skylab's on a WA6 and it was beautiful. But that was a single ended setup and WA22 is balanced. I thought I'd get the T-1s but I didn't know it was a hard wire mod. The Senn HD800's and LCD-2 are...- Icenine2

Talk me out of buying a WA2
I grew up listening to vinyl on headphones. When the spouse decided to evict my (very nice, but butt ugly) disco era stereo from the house, I went in search of something that could recreate the sound I grew up with and take some of the digital harshness out of my cds. I ended up with a Woo Audio...- StanT
