Hi, I am awaiting on my new WA 33 Elite as noted above. I have been fortunate to have had many systems over the years but this will be my first time with a Tube amp for Headphones. I am really curious as to if I will enjoy them as much. I did have the EF 1000 HiFiman amp with susvara but that was a Hybrid 2 channel amp really. I found it clipped a lot?

Current pairing my DCS Lina DAC with Aperio. Hopefully I will enjoy my first "real" tube experience. Mostly listen to Classic Rock, Modern Jazz , Vocalists etc. I post my experiences when it arrives. Any suggestions on the settings or other points to note? Much appreciated

you are in for a treat. i was scared of tubes, best sonic upgrade even more than my music server. post your thoughts on wa 33 thread https://www.head-fi.org/threads/woos-new-flagship-wa33.843710/

let it burn in, you might want a vibration plate if a desktop. blow the load on tube upgrades, no settings to discuss, i went with high impedance and low gain, but play
