just got my T1 back! they replaced the entire headband, my old one was the 5k series, this one is from the 11k series beyers. seems like its a little wider, the leather is softer,and the sliding mechanism is nice and solid, it doesn't move all over the place like the old one, it actually clicks into place like its supposed to!
 
peter and the entire beyer service team are awesome!!

Holy Crap!! I just got my setup ergh...setup!

I'm going to running an O2/ODAC + HD650 to running a

Toslink Optical>Gungnir balanced>WA22>Balanced HD650.

Difference is night and day!!! These headphones are so much more detailed now but still warm. I'm still new to the headfi game but man what a difference. I'm burning in my WA22 on stock tubes but I have the upgrade set. So happy. The decision I made was after reading this forum for the last few weeks. Thanks everyone!!

Can you post a pic when you get a chance?  I am curious what the 11k series band looks like.

Get a hold of the Treasure and GZ34, they will tame the warm of the HD6x0 (lift the veil).

or mighty 596 (assuming it retains the same sound on the WA22 as on my WA6-SE)

looks about same as old one, maybe a little wider, and the leather is very soft, finer than old one.

 and dangerous... look at that tube arsenal!

 
i got way too many tubes now, yet it still feels im lacking tube rolling options at times.
 
if i get WA22, i'll be selling quite a few of them (the 6DE7 and the 6922/EZ80s)

Just be patient, very patient. They will show up and the eBay gods will fall asleep. then you move, and move fast! I got one for $60 not long ago off ebay. Same with my 421A. Or find a 'secret seller'.

So how does one go about acquiring GEC  A1834 / 6AS7g brown base tubes? I see the ones that are always offered on ebay for $250 to $500 per tube. I would like to hear one in my WA3+.

what i still want to know is if WE 421A are really better than TS 5998  or if they are just a $500 a pair version of the 5998.
