Is the WA7d a good upgrade over the m9xx?

[bl42ed0]

I'm currently using the m9xx as my daily dac/amp but the wa7d is on massdrop for a decent buy. Is it worth the upgrade to the wa7d?

I'm currently using the m9xx with:
-HE-560
-TH-X00
-LCD2v2

Thanks!

Just have to say that I haven't heard the M9xx but the 560's have sounded good with Woo that I've heard not the WA7 but have heard them on the WA2 and 22 and they shine. The WA7 is also good but didn't hear the 560's from them.

To be honest, I'm perfectly satisfied with the m9xx as it's pretty balanced and clear. However, we all know 'satisfied' only cuts it for a while before we're looking at 'what's next?' lol. I'd prefer something with a bit more bass and ability to bring out female vocals like in EDM. Something to closely replicate what I got from my HE-500s. Am I going to get that with the WA7d? Or would I be better suited with something else in the $650 price range?
