No difference. I have both.

Brown base and grey plates, black base and black plates.

If there is a difference I can't hear it.

The code GY refers to the glass shape. Not tube internal structure. Pointless putting GY because as you can see they are the same.

Cheers Badas.
 
I have a few brown base purchased from Langrax and noticed this black base on a sellers site who I am currently dealing with.
 
May as well get him to add it to my parcel.

New member of the Woo-tang clan checking in:
 
WA7 + WA7tp: EH Gold Pins in the amp, NOS GE 5-star JG5814a in the power supply, Volex 17604 power cable, and StraightWire USB cable. The RS1s and HE500s are eating this up!

  Will have a chance to try that myself soon.
 
Seems like the best between the brown and black base is the one that looks good in your amp.

anyone here made it out to CanJam@RMAF over the weekend? We had the new WA5-LE driving Abyss at our booth. Here's a quick pic.

Increased transparency tremendously, textures of the instrument more on display, and lowered the noise floor. Sounds like the amp blew its nose and expresses more freely. This was a huge improvement.
 
The only other thing that will be done is the Furutech IEC which will ship this week

Yip.
 
Treble rich. Very extended. Not harsh. Good bass. Nice warmth. I feel people that like the GEC6080 would like this. If it was a blind test they would not know the difference. A good tube. I have both and have compared.
 
Not my thing as I like it a lot darker. That's just my stupid taste. So I use GE6AS7GA.

Don't waste on finding a 6080, the only one you need is GEC.  Spend your time rolling on 5998 or 7236 instead.

No way. There are some very nice 6080 and 6AS7G type tubes. The Tung-Sol 7236 that I own would be one of the worst overpriced tubes I own. Muddied unclear bass. Most 6080's are cleaner.
