V. nice, congrats - I notice you have a pair of what I like to call 'mind-blowers' plugged in.

That will be very interesting to see. Perhaps the first cosmetically modified WA6 out there?

Thank you St3ve.

Funny thing is that I ordered black to match with dac1 but came as silver and quite match with 'mind-blowers'. I don't know what happened.

Ok, well I just had to snap a few pictures of it.
I'm not happy with the way they came out. This amp can look much better!
When the lighting is better, I'm going to try again someday.

OMG!!! Can anyone ever get enough of a Woo? Not me. The best looking black Woo I've seen yet. Its black sheen is just beyond beautiful--like black sable. Thank you for the pix.

At first my Sennheiser HE60. Then I hope to get an Stax O2 and compare them side by side.

A favor from the people that have opened their WA22 - what is the rating of the cathode bias resistor? (they are the big gold ones attached to the chassis).

Thanks in advance.

I hope that this is what you're seeking. It's the only "big gold ones" I can identify. I know nothing about amp innards.

is it normal that one of the tubes glow way more than the other? does that mean its going out and needs ot be replaced?

You have to different (vintage wise, brand?) tubes there. The one for the right channel had more getter flashing on the top which will make the tube look dimmer. Notice the shields are not the same between the two?

If they are same brand and "same tube", and tested OK, does not have to match, they should gow evenly.

Everyone should invest in a good tube tester before get too deep in to this hobby, just my 0.02

I'm picking up some nasty microphonics with my driver tubes, and I'm about ready to order a pair of HAL-O Ultrasonic RX-40s:

UltraSonic Rx Tube Dampers

Does anyone have any experience with these on their Woo amps? And, any experience using them with 6F8Gs? My 6F8Gs are about 1/2" away from my rectifier, but it states on the website that the dampers will work with tubes as close as 1/4".
