Hello everyone,
first post !!!!!!
 
At the moment I´m divided between these two amps.
Please give me some advise here, I live in sunny Portugal and don't have much information on the gear I want.
 
My musical tastes are general, going from rock to classical.
I have a pair of Hd 650 and a pair of Grados rs1e.
 
Thanks;

The WA6 is always a safe bet and should be able to control the warmth of both headphones with authority with all that tube power.

Hi pbui44,
I thought the same too,
thinking about the Sophia Princess tube upgrade, shame the guys at Woo don´t make any internal upgrades now.
 
Would you like to recommend any other valve head amp you think would be a good choice?

The Icon Audio hp8 mkII is highly regarded, there is a good review at inner fidelity here:
