Nice glow

So silent one, what's the verdict on now having maple isolation across the board now that it has been a few days?

We got side tracked. Received two different FIVRE 6SN7GT tubes - Brown base; Black base the same afternoon as the second Maple platform. No critical listening done yet. But sticking to my earlier impression, the middle got kicked wide open. But I did make a discovery - both the 2" Maple block and the spikes aren't right for this DAC. Returned to stocking feet with each of the three components. Then Tri-Absorbers and lastly spikes and combinations in between. At each turn, the DAC returned the poorest impressions and it is affected by the changes.
I'm looking to get Brass footers next and try them under the server, DAC and amp (can only afford one set in the BIG size at this time). So, stay tuned! But yes, I'm on track with positive results and on the verge of getting even better.
SO, you really have golden ears. I can hardly tell the difference between difference cables.

Check out MH WA22 for 1450

MH, did you pick up the LF that went up for sale this morning? If I did not put in my camera purchase, that would be mine.
I just broke my Mullard GZ34 rectifier within two weeks of having it. Seemed like it was lined up like every other time, but when pushing it in the middle black plastic piece snapped off and got stuck in the WA22. Luckily it pulled right out and the amp seems fine. It hurts being such a newbie to tubes. Wonder how many a head-fi'er have done that before...
I guess good timing that I bought MH's Princess 274B tonight at least.

I may look at that. Seems like a good price. I'm content for now using the line out, but I may add that little dac in the future.
Well gentlemen (and ladies), I shipped off my WA22 to its new owner today. Kinda sad to see this great amp go. It's served me very well for the past year. On a brighter note, my LF is due mid-week.

Just traded-in my one month old Eastern Electric DAC Plus for a Wyred 4 Sound DAC 2. Really looking forward to having volume control for my WA6SE![]()
Sitting 12 feet away from the amp, this will be much more practical for me. With an HT bypass input, I'll also be able to drive my monoblocks directly in fully balanced configuration.
