Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? I thought you had it ordered and everything? What happened? What did you go for instead?
I know I did have it ordered - months ago.
Donald emailed me during the week and said that there would be another delay, then offered to refund me.
I don't mind waiting that is not why I cancelled. The reason I choose another amp is because I happened to acquire
extra money over the past few weeks quiet unexpectedly which allowed me to buy another amp I always wanted
but never though i'd be able to afford - especially from Ireland.
I went with the WA5 in the end. I always wanted a speaker/headphone amp. I am aware that the Stratus with HD800 is considered
to be a better pairing than with the WA5 but the other benefits of having a speaker amp and powering the HE6 tipped it for me.
That being said I might not be satisfied with the WA5 - I have heard it can sound lean with HD800, I will have to wait and see. If it doesn't work well with HD800 I will order the stratus again. I might even order the Stratus next year anyway if this new job works out.
