Headphoneus Supremus
I can't say that the WA22 will replace my Benchmark stack for these headphones, but it is a pleasant and very different experience hearing the 4 through tubes. Less resolution, less bass extension and impact, and some softening of the general sound, but the tubes help to bring forward the mids in a more balanced way and give the bass a more generalized warmth. Far less listening fatigue too. Very chilled out and euphoric compared to the solid state amp. I could definitely grow to love this pairing.
