Headphoneus Supremus
The WA7 Fireflies, with tube power supply, is in the house. Very quiet and very hot-running. The HEDDphone midrange carries more forward, is more open and transparent, and with less perceived upper midrange sharpness in trumpet attacks on certain tracks, for example. Nice rendering of vocals. Horns and reeds have more bite. Bass is thicker, fuller, more pliable and palpable [will have to do more extensive listening to determine if this has come at the expense of a slight loss of extension]. Treble sounds less edgy, if not just a smidgeon muted, but without loss of detail. 3-D imaging is also more open and layered, but also more stable. That innate sense of "true air" that the HEDD already possesses is generally reinforced by the Woo.
