  How could a headphone amp weighing 75 pounds be "Lean"?  

haha......... you know that never occurred to me

  The longest I had to wait for an amp was 12 weeks. Eek!

I waited close to 4 months for the WDS-1 (not an amp, obviously).

Did you guys get estimated shipping times with your invoices?

 
I didn't get an ETA with my invoice, however, I did email Jack and asked him how my amp was coming along and he responded telling me that it would be 2 more weeks or whatever the ETA was on his charts.
 
Before I placed the order, though, I asked him how long the wait would be.

Yes, how do you like the WDS-1?

Dang, I must be very lucky to have my WA22 built in 6 days.  Holy Moly Cow.  

 

[Dubstep Girl]

my woos have always gotten made and shipped in a week or less.

hi DSG,
What mod did you have done to your WA22 ?  Was it done directly by Jack?

  Which aftermarket tubes are you using for the HD800s? 

EML 300B Mesh, EML 5U4G Mesh, Sylvania 6SN7 brown base.  
 
I have a pair of 596's with adapters, but (to my ears) they took too much base from the HD800.  The EMLs offer more bass punch.  The 596 offered better clarity.  
 
I also tried the PSVane 181 TII (Treasure 2) for drivers.  Nice tubes, but not remarkable.  It's been 6 months, but every time I put them in, I went back to the Sylvania.  I'd like to try the Sophia 6SN7, it's on my short list.
 
I would really, REALLY like to try the Takatsuki 300B.  But honestly, I'm pretty thrilled with the sound these days.

My WA22, built in 2009, took 6 weeks to build.

The 2010 Midsummer release of my Black WooAudio WA 6 Special Edition took 8 weeks. Production was interrupted by an Audio Show, you know the ones that are put on for us...

everything you order seems to get delayed

You have no idea what it is to wait until you put a deposit down on a BHSE.  The wait is epic.

I like the WDS-1.  It seemed like a small, incremental improvement over the Gungnir that I was using before it.  The bass is crisper than with the Gungnir and I have found that the WA22 opens up just a bit more with the WDS-1.  I'm not nearly as good as many others here at describing the differences in sound that I hear from one component to another, but I do believe that the WDS-1 is worth the cost.

True. Maybe my silent nature is due to waiting...
