Indeed, thanks... :wink:

I have a simple suggestion - could be made simpler still but, it's dinner time - you could put more space in between the goal post. And allow yourself at least 21 days with each, instead of 21 minutes.

 Hope that helps!

Step down to WA7 from WA22? I recommend WA6SE instead.

The WA6SE is not a combo amp, so he would still need a DAC, which would put him well above his budget.  I've listened to the WA7 and WA6SE side by side and I think the WA7 holds its own quite well.  I don't think that the WA7 is all that much of a sacrifice, but, as ever, YMMV.

Mayber I should look into that option more seriously. I have to confess I haven't really assumed the built in DAC would be that good despite knowing that it is getting really good reviews. I assumed the amp was probably really good with a "pretty good for a through-in" DAC. I welcome any comments if I'm totally offbase here.
 

There has been a recent discussion of this on the WA7 thread.  You might check it out, Sid.  Others have said that you need to put some serious dollars into your DAC before you can hear the difference from the built in DAC that the WA7 comes with.  I haven't tried this out myself, but I am pretty happy with the WA7/TH900 combo.

+1. WA7 is a tremendous bargain in the Woo lineup. Have a number of cans and amps in the collection and yet spend more time with T90 + WA7 for recreational listening tha all the others combined.

will my dacmagic 100 -> Woo Audio WA6 do the T1 justice? i'm about to bite the bullet on the T1 but I dont want to spend 10+ bills on a headphone to find it sounds like garbage with my setup.... I'm using the Sophia Princess and 6FD7s

Might be a little lean on the bass, some1 pmed me about this not too long and they werent impressed with t1/800 and wa6. That 1400 ohm impedance at the midbass really needs a more powerful amp or an otl that can deliver the big voltage swings the t1 needs to really bring out the bass as well as dynamics and warmth

May I hand deliver to you personally?  WooAudio is only 3 hours away, I can probably make it in 2 hours if I leave around 2AM.
