20 Questions for the Audiophile --
 
In recent days, I sought the help of the membership here. What began as a search for a simple year-end tweak, turned into a Q&A series with me asking a few members one or all 20 questions I could think of. And though I'm still sifting and searching, these members were of tremendous help!
 
Take 2359glenn and Skylab, for example. I asked them so many questions, I may have to change my avatar pix lest they start dreaming about Mermaids.

 The membership here is great - it is only proper that I give credit. Special thanks to (in no particular order):  2359glenn; Xcalibur255; Skylab; Clayton SF; jc9394.
 
Honorable mention to: shipsupt; mikemalter; grokit; WarriroAnt, who would've have been approached had I not gotten exhausted... but are usually there for me! And Dubstep Girl, who met me cafeside to chat (virtually speaking) whether it was 4 am or 4 pm, through this difficult search the past week. 
 
To all of you... cheers!

[size=10pt]Adding to the Thank You Head-Fi WA owners. After reading much of this thread and the many reviews and comparisons of Woo amps, I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of a WA 6SE to go with my Stello DA100 and HD-650's all being fed lossless audio via fubar.[/size]
 
[size=10pt]Thanks to everyone here that provides endless information and insight about this hobby.[/size]

It seems you're now ready for Prime Time and we're ready to have you at any hour.

Thanks, how thoughtless to not include details

Color: Black
Tubes: 100% stock to start with, tube rolling is too much to deal with initially. Although I think a Sophia Princess may be in order down the road.
 


You forgot to include your stance on motor sports. Though I think we can infer something from your avatar.


Congrats on the new amp!

Excellent! Due to Woo Audio's fit & finish, the way they anodize the cladding, one really can't go wrong choosing either color.

Thanks, really looking forward to listening to this amp in a couple weeks.
 
As for motorsports. I am the track photographer for Atlanta Dragway, do some shooting at Road Atlanta for a friends race team. There is no such thing as too much horsepower in a car as long as it can stop.
 
My avatar image is of John Force (well he's in the car) I shot a few years ago at the Southern Nationals.

My breaths had become more pronounced, sometimes heavy, while thinking about getting a really nice 6F8G pair to go with my WA 6 Special Edition.

 Proceeding this new found lust was Glenn's discontinuation of 6DE7 adapters for this series.... uh-oh! 
eek.gif
 So, the dance of disbelief began - shopping, wanting, waiting for a new pair of tubes with no guarantee I'd even be able to play them. 
 
So I appealed to Glenn and though he had previously searched high & low for the right 9-pin bases, he really went the extra mile... but to no avail. Also, I quickly discovered the scarcity of premium 6F8G tubes and decided to stand down. It was quite the adventure...

Your link sent my heart racing! It will take the magic of vacuum tube technology to calm me down tonight.
