The WA33 pictured is the Elite Edition $15K + RCA 2A3 $2400 + ... = $$$$ My gosh, you'd need to be a 300B amp owner in order to afford that thing! :money_mouth:

Too rich for this 300B amp owner. Besides, if I had that sort of cash to blow on HeadFi it would be thrown at a BHSE or KGSSHV Carbon + SR-007/009. Not on a Woo amp that looks pretty on the outside and very likely highly suspect on the inside.

How much better can it sound compared to your 300B

Not much. Being a Woo I would expect it to be more 'tubey' and euphonic, based on the WA5 I used to have.

That's not my thing anymore. I like my tube amps to be mostly transparent with a touch of tube love. SS rectification + C3g drivers + 300B does that superbly well.

I agree, at this point it is BHSE and some Stax cans.

At one point I was thinking about making a electrostat amp using four 300Bs two for right and two for left driven by four C3gs
To expensive to make and try to sell.

Have you seen the Frank Cooter stat amp with 2x845?

It is one of the most purdy bits of a audio gear I have ever seen.
