Hi All, I have read all I can find on these 2 amps for use with the Sen HD600. I am building my first headphone based system and am looking to get a very good sounding amp for the 600s. I have a DAC and CD player. Will also listen through iMac/iPod/iPhone. My budget is $700 tops. I have not...

Hi,   Would any of you think the AKG Q701 would work well with the Woo Audio WA3?   Thanks.

Looking to buy one of these asap. Please let me know your thoughts and why.   The reason i sway toward Pan Am right now is the reviewed bass response. Looking for something to compliment electronica.   Cans are all over 250ohm and up to 600. go to are dt770, and am picking up a few...

Hello guys,   I'm quite new to headphone world (while experimented in hifi), and want to go for a tube amp for a HD650.   Reading this forum a lot, I started to select one, and then basically choose: - Schiit Lyr, - Woo WA3, - Woo WA6 (or WA6-SE), - eventually Ray Samuel Raptor...

Hey guys, so my WA3 arrived just a few days ago and I have a few questions that I think you guys could answer for me. I've been burning the amp in for about 25 hours so far, and I have noticed differences in tone, warmness, and bass response. However, the one thing that has been absent the...

Hi all, Was wondering what could be the E09K's RCA line out ? And how this sympathic little amp could be hooked up to an existing integrated amp? Can the 09K be hooked up to the Fiio A1 ? For which use. Maybe should I explain what I've got in my mind: I have a pairs of ASL AV25 DT...

Hi guys, First and foremost please forgive my poor English. I'm new onto the forum, and as per title, I'm looking for a mint condition WA3 amplifier which include a preamplifier section at a bargain price and preferably in Black. I know that's not the forum for placing ads, but as I have...

Hi all,    I'm posting this here, since I can't think of any better place for it - apologies if it's not quite the right place.  The question is  - what's the first thing you'd change about my rig, to try and make a step up in quality? Any advice or just opinion, no matter how specific or...

As the title says, which will have more synergy and sound better for Jazz and electronica with some J pop and classical rock. I'll be using a Audio-gd NFB-10ES2 DAC, if that matters :D. Thanks, Thomas

Hi Guys,   First post on this forum I'm reading for a few months now... I've read a lot of interesting posts, but I'm a bit confused now with the choices I have to make. I listen to folk, blues, jazz, a bit of rock and classical. I will own a Sennheiser HD650 and have at the moment a RME...

Alright, so i've been lurking around threads for a good amp for the Beyers but i haven't bought them yet because i can't decide which ones, main uses will be for listening to Rock, Pop, dubstep/electronic, and alot of gaming(all games, fps,rts,rpg,mmo,etc)i would say50/50 for between music and...

How does the WA3 do as a preamp?  I've decided to buy one for my DT880s, but I'm stuck on the preamp option.  I have a pair of B&Ws that barely get used as they're currently the mains in my basement home theater.  When they do get used, its mostly for gaming or movies and I feel like they're...

Hey guys,   Got a new WA3 this week that I have been enjoying until disaster struck today. A few minutes after I turned the amp on I saw a bright white flash come from it and the amp seems to have lost all power on the left channel. I only hear anything through my cans (dt990 600s) when the...

I'm getting ready to order a WA3, but had a couple questions.  First of all, is this a good match for my DT880/600s?  I see it more people seems to use it with Senns, but it seems like this would be a good choice.  Would there be anything else in this price range that I should look at before...

Sorry for creating a new topic, but I did not see a recommendation thread on Summit-fi.   OK, here is my situation: Currently own:  AKG K701 + Sennheiser HD650.   Using my Onkyo reciever as headphone amp (and its headphone out is very capable, it can drive even the Hifiman HE6s).     I...

I think I've narrowed it to Bottlehead Crack or DarkVoice 336SE.  Any preferences between these, or something in the price range that I'm missing?  Also, how hard are the Bottleheads to build.  I'd like to to do it myself so I can do more kits in the future, but have no soldering experience.  Is...

Beware I'm pretty noob to this subject. I've been searching the forum here and it seems the woo audio wa3 would be a good amp for the HD600s. I currently have them amp'd with a Fiio e9 ran into my X-fi fatal1ty sound card. I do a lot of gaming. I am constantly listening to music while playing...

I just picked up some HD650's from Amazon and need an amp.   I know there are like six hundred and fifty billion threads about the HD650 and amps on here, and I think I've done a lot of digging and reading, but I keep getting confused about some things.   I'm looking to stay at or around...

old thread

Usually tube amps are said to sound warm/dark/mellow...etc...   Are there any that buck this trend by offering an analytical/cold/bright almost solid-state sounding presentation?   I heard that Apex Audio may do this, but have yet to hear it.

Want to get a nice amp for my HD650. I'm looking at the Woo Audio WA6-SE or WA2. Which will be better for the HD 650? I am also going to use this amp for future headphone purchase (either the LCD-2 or LCD-3). Thanks.

I've been lurking these forums for a while and currently have Ultrasone 580's as they seemed like a good set of beginner headphones. I've enjoyed them quite a lot but want to take my next step in my audiophile journey.   I listen to pretty much everything so I want a well balanced set of...

Hi buddy, I wonder to start this thread earlier when I received my amp and searched that there is no such tiltle so I start it. Please also state what headphone/s you're pairing with and how do you love the combo. My WA6SE arrived by mid-March this year. I ordered a Sophia Princess 274B and...

Anyone have any recommendations if one is better than the other?   I like a lush, rich, vibrant, impactful tube sound and listen mostly to classical symphonies (well, I listen to rock, hiphop and other stuff as well, but I have a separate rig for that).   TIA!

What is the difference between the wa3 and the wa3+ Thanks
