$150 more, and you get balanced/single ended, tube/SS versatility? Best $150 you will ever spend. Even stock tube sound is stunning!

Im talking about wa6-se not the regular wa6.

I have the Mjolnir 2 right now for the HD800 and I have recently try the 74 reflektors but it was a bit veiled. I was wondering if anyone has other suggestions when it comes to tubes for the HD800, my HD800 is Anax modded as well. The Orange Globes are a bit treble forward too.

I am currently running some amperex 7308's with my HD650's. They are cleaner sounding, more bottom end, and wider sound stage than the orange globes. I also have some telefunken e88cc's that I really like as well. Both are a cut above the OG's.

I found 74 reflectors to be really good.  But they need some good burn in time.   Make sure you get some hours on them till you really judge them.

Perfect example of the use case for a tube warmer!

No doubt the tubes at 25 hours of use sound very much different than the same pair with 150 + hours.

I beg your pardon. I should say: $341 less and you get balanced/single ended, tube/SS versatility? Best $341 you will ever save. Even stock tube sound is stunning!
 
EDIT: Plus tax.

How does this amp compare to wa6se?
Im thinking about getting this amp or the wa6se for my endgame setup in the future.

Having owned a WA 6 SE for a couple years and having sold it, I can say with Woo amps you're definitely paying quite a lot for the machined aluminum chassis and less for what's inside. For full disclosure, I've never owned or heard a Mjolnir.

Hi Schutzee

She was actually listening to your 74 reflectors that I got with your mj2. We were at a S.Florida meet on Saturday. I also just scored some legit 75's with only 50 hours on them. Coming this week.

Oh man so lucky, where do you find these reflektors lol.

Found them here on head-fi for 150. I let you know how they sound after a few days of listening.

Awesome on the 75's   . They are some sweet tubes.

Question, could someone explain to a relative neophyte to tubes what exactly is a 74 reflektor (or is it reflector)? Obviously that's a tube, but are we referring to a particular brand and model?
 
Very curious as my Mule 2 should arrive Friday (so glad I work from home on Fridays!).

Check  out this thread on 6922 type tubes.   http://www.head-fi.org/t/761078/6922-tube-review-17-top-6922-6n23p-e88cc-cca-7308-e188cc-tubes         
These are the type used by the lyr and mj2.
Another good resource to read about some of the different 6922 types is  here.    http://www.upscaleaudio.com/6922/
