Makes me wonder how much further the HE6 can go from the WA5 K1K output using speaker taps. Anyone out there that can compare the WA5 K1K output to speaker taps for the HE6?
The specs from the owner's manual for the WA5 give the K1K output as 8W into 120 Ohm.
I am using my WA5 to drive a set of Monitor Audio BR5 floorstanders (6 Ohm, 90dB) and it does this perfectly well up to moderately loud levels (louder than I want to go).
The power supply unit on the WA5 weighs in at around 30lbs - there's plenty of transformer iron sitting behind those 8W.
Do you have some photos of the insides? One thing I like about Audio-gd is that he shows the insides of all his amps on his web site.
