Welcome aboard :)
 
I didn't hate the stock tunes either. I think the quality of the stock tubes vary quite a bit. What are your cans?

HD800.
Yes I guess the quality varies. I got sylvania power tubes that look beyond old and one of them is not even straight which is a bit bothering as the unit looks so beautiful otherwise and that tube is really really distracting..

Haha - but at least it seems they sound good :wink:
 
But if you are gonna hang around here, it wont take long before you have got other tubes. 6AS7Gs are often very smooth, nice and affordable. Great place to start rolling IMO

Great! Night table amps are a necessity of life :D
 
Looking foreward to some comparisons between the WA7 and WA2. What are your imperssions so far?

Haha, I have three so far :) When I win the lottery, onward to the higher Woo end!...

 
LOL - you beat me then :)
 
We have to rename it the "Multiple Woo Owner's Society", I guess. 
 
Are you building an intentional collection or just having troubles making yourself selling off after upgrading?

Bad people, bad influence in this thread, especially DG.  She gave me the tube bug big time.

 of course with a new gadget you don't go back to the 'old' one - but I will do a back to back comparison and share.
The first impression is more controlled power :)

Hi everyone, I'm waiting to receive the WA6/SP/6WE7 tube upgrade which was shipped today from Elmhurst, N.Y. and I'm in Statenn, Island, N.Y so I should receive it in a couples of days, (can't wait)!!! I purchased this amp to use with the Grado RS1i, there are almost 2000 posts on this thread and I've just found it and started reading it. I've only read a little bit so far, but I see that many people like the Senn's with this amp, can anyone comment on their experiences with the RS's or other Grado's with the WA6? Thank you.
