Hey guys, my current setup is a Pico -> EF2 -> HD580.

For my source, I'm very satisfied with the Pico so I will be using it for a long time. Might upgrade to the Paradisea/Havana in the future.

For my headphones, I'm loving the HD580 and will be doing a cable upgrade soon. I was also thinking about picking up either the HD650 or maybe a high-ohm Beyer - not certain yet though.

Anyway, onto my main point, the EF2 gave me a taste of the tubes, and I really love the warm, lush sound they provide - thus, looking to upgrade to a better tube amp.

Ideally, I would love to upgrade to a WA6 but it's over my budget (~$500). My second/cheaper choice is the DV332. Any other suggestions would be okay too.

My main concern is, I want something that's a noticeable improvement from the EF2 (or EF1, since they sound similar. I'm just not sure if I need to spring for the WA6, or just get the DV332 and be happy. Which would be a better value? Are both of these noticeably better than the EF2/1?



Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated, thank you.
