  not sure. the soundstage is huge, and the bass is actually decent,  not sure how to describe sound since i'm getting used to WA22, but i like them.
 
also surprised how transparent they sound. i thought they where gonna be grainy compared to 5998/GEC/7236, but they're even better than 5998/7236 in transparency alone, though not quite at the level of the GEC.
 
now i just need to buy a pair of WE 421A

 
Congrats on the recovery. You banged out that new order so fast, smoke had begun to emerge from your keyboard! Just another day

 for a world class gamer...

  to get the best out of the 22 you need to roll tubes, it allows much more flexibility to fine tune than the other Woos. Unfortunately this means a good stock...

 
i am seeing this is true.  very expensive.
 
thats why i might try to find an amp like WA22 that has the same tubes , but uses 6922 instead, i think i'd like that more.
 
5U4gs are expensive, i have a good variety to roll, and theres plenty more good ones out there to try out. i'm gonna try and buy a western electric 422A and a GEC U52 soon.
 
i think i have every 6AS7G thats decent except the WE421A which is on my to-buy list as well.
 
anyways, looks like to have a good stock means spending at least the price of the amp in tubes, if not more. depending on whether you want the best or just decent tubes.

Be sure to let us know your ongoing impressions of the Bendix graphite columns, as they are a very interesting tube (sonically.)

Ohh the agony. Waiting for a package on delivery day is like forcing yourself to go to sleep on Christmas when you were a kid. :3 
I am planning on buying my own WA5 LE if I cannot find one used.

You never know, there may be one in the near future...

 

[jc9394]

I guess no Woo today, still said on vehicle for delivery but I have to go soon...:mad:    Have dinner reservation that I made couple months ago...  

Well, the omakasa is so good that the WA5LE can wait an extra day.

Hello everybody
 
Just got my WA2 tubed, heated up and pushing music to T1's and my ears Glorious stuff sofar! Had it sitting on my table for a week all alone and tubeless. Was excruciating to say the least. But now all is goooooood...
 
Got a pile of tubes and more is on the way. Waiting also for a DAC to get most out of it. Tubegymnastics coming up!

 

[Ultrainferno]

We need pictures! And Congrats on the Woo!

 

[Mihis]

Pics are on the way as soon as I get some listening done I need to move it to a bit better place for pics.

Well you should let me know if there is. ^_^

 

[jc9394]

Here it is...

 

[Clayton SF]

Wow. Don't tell me that I've got to jump on theWA5 bandwagon as well. They look fantastic. I see Jack is shipping them in wooden crates again. For a time he switched to shipping them in cardboard boxes. The crates are better.

 

[jc9394]

No, this is used.

 

[Clayton SF]

No, this is used.

 
Nice. It looks shiny and new. Now go get some shiny and old tubes.
