Its WA234 that your using right? Have you heard the WA5 or did you jump straight to the WA234? 

 

[isquirrel]

Yep I am running 234's. Only heard the 234, prior to that I had an ALO Studio Six, a friend of mine on these forums has gone from a WA5 to 234's. He has a lot of experience with it WA5. A lot of what he has learned has carried over to the 234'a valve wise.

Have hit the sweet spot with TS RP 6SN7's, Mullard Metal base GZ34's and SERP's.

Warming up the tubes and making some coffee, I call it the paint peeler, this morning. Isquirrel, I still have a hard time wrapping my head around a 16 hour time difference. How's the learning curve, (sic) tube rolling, going with those W234 power towers?

Good morning mate, very happy now, been an interesting learning journey. Hit the magic spot with the Tung Sols RP, the Sophia Royal Princess 300B's and the Mullard metal base GZ 34's.
 
Matt is off to Japan next week and bring back some Takatsukis 300B's and 274B's for us both in early January. Looking forward to that.
 
Full moon here tonight, can't tear myself away from listening to the Interstellar sound track, its 10.45pm suppose I had better go to bed soon. How's your rig sounding?

I look forward to your impressions of the Takatsukis

Everything I have heard about them seems to suggest they will be very good. I was surprised that the rectifiers cost more than the 300B's. We shall find out soon enough.
 
Put some decent isolation under the DaVinci and the Woo's this week - I was shocked at how much difference it made, the system went from being good to really involving emotionally.

The Mullard's, SERP's and the TS all playing together nicely.
 

 

[magiccabbage]

That DAC looks like it could kill people with laser beams!

 

[isquirrel]

Thanks, this is how I have my desk setup.

Unbelievable, could it be the same full moon I saw last night? Sophia Electric tubes might not be the most revealing or detailed, but I think their strength is in the quality of their construction. The SE's do take awhile to loosen up though. My rig is sounding pretty good this morning. I've been getting more music instead of concentrating on audio gear lately. I really liked "Interstellar", will have to check out the soundtrack.
