Is there a disconnect on the pricing? A single price is $599. Times two is $1198 yet the article states a matched pair are $1299. Is WE going to charge $101 to match tubes?

I have the WA6-SE V2. I bought it at the end of 2017 and have run it in about 200 hours. I tried the stock tubes and also bought the 13EM7 tubes with the adapters which are nice but the magic for me seems to happen with a pair of NOS Sylvania 13DE7 tubes. For the rectifier I bought the Sophia 274B. The amp is awesome. Best headphone amp I have ever owned.

I also have the same combination of tube on my woo 6 I tried the 13em7 s for a while and your right the 13de7 has a much more relaxing sound
The 13em7 sounds more open but the 13de7 has more emotion .
I just purchased the 12sx7s and the 12sn7s heard these tubes are an amazing combo with the Sophia princess.

Happy rolling

Could you offer any impressions of the WA6-SE with your Focal Clears? I've got a pair that i'm really enjoying, and considering my Woo options for getting the most out of them, so naturally your amp is on my radar. Any insight would be much appreciated - thanks!

No sure which article you are referring to. The WA6-SE goes for $1190 in the US.

guys i have a question, sory if the question sound a little silly..
I have wa33 with custom speaker out and want to use it as preamp for my integrated amp cambridge audio azur 651A, but I don't know how to set wa33 as preamp.
Should I made a custom cable with banana plug to rca? and insert the banana plug to wa33 speaker out then connect to azur rca input?

You would use the XLR preamp outputs on the WA33 to connect to your amp. But your integrated amp doesn't have XLR inputs so that won't work. You would have to get your WA33 modded by Woo or get a new amp.

Have you called or emailed Woo Audio to ask?

I have only had the Clear for about a week and a half. I have had them on break in since I received them. After about 20 hours they sounded a bit thin but now that they have 120 hours on them they are beginning to sound like I thought that they might. I need another week to really get them broken in before I do any critical listening. Focal recommends 200 hours on these. I will post my impressions when done.

Cardas makes XLR to RCA connectors. I use them all the time. You would use the XLR to RCA to convert the balanced output to an RCA output to feed your Azur. Don't do that speaker thing. It's not the way to go.

Does anyone own the KR AUDIO 274b rectifier for the wa6 2nd gen and how does it compare to the Sophia 274b .
Thanks guys

This seems to be a really good question. Maybe they meant $1199 per matched pair?

Anyone has both liquid carbon and WA6se?
I have WA6se and thinking about get an LCX from Massdrop because of the balanced output.
Wondering wether that is some kind of waste money.

I have a WA6 (not SE) and a Liquid Carbon and I like both amps. The balanced output on the LC makes a noticeable difference on some headphones, and a small difference on others - it's hard to predict without trying. I enjoy some planar magnetic headphones (e.g. Audeze LCD-2 and ZMF Omni) using the balanced output. On other headphones (e.g. Beyerdynamic T1 and MrSpeakers Aeon Flow Closed) I prefer the single-ended output. YMMV, of course.
