I periodically ask .. has Jack officially stated the 596 is compatible, yet? I still don't see it on the WooAudio spreadsheet

I don't know if he has made it public but I sent him an email before jumping in the 596 boat and he let me know thye are comnpatible for my WA5-LE. I have been using them since then and all my other rectifiers had been in storage,

Damn you head-fiers, I bought an Audio Technica A700 a few months ago, followed by a fiio e11 and then a Music Streamer II (I caught upgraditis quick). Yesterday I caved in and ordered DT880s 600 ohm and a WA6 with the Sophia upgrade. Hopefully it is a good combination to last me quite a while.

Ohh my lord. I'm running those right now and feel like an idiot. Tube prices are beyond ridiculous.

I do when I use the HD800 too but lately I'm been using the LCD-2 so the GEC are back in the closet.

Can't agree more. they are the best tubes I ever use in the WA22.


What is a D800?

I did emailed Jack before I started to use on WA22, he said it is fine as long as the adapter is make from someone that have enough knowledge on tube amp/design.

Correct. Mine are from Gelnn.

X2, Glenn is the man! I still need to ship him my WA22 for the SE adaptor mod.

It's said, "Out of disaster, comes opportunity." Very likely that some of us would not be enjoying the USAF-596, if not for Glenn seeking a solution to dannie01's problem with his amp and rectifier. I was following the dialogue in real-time (spectating?) and waiting along with others to see if dannie01's WA5-LE/5U4G issues would get resolved.
 
Once Clayton SF posted the first pix of the USAF-596, I had to have it! 

  Didn't even matter if I could use it or not, it deserved to be in my tube collection on beauty alone!!! Cheers to Glenn, dannie01 & Clayton SF, for introducing me to the Mighty 596!

As painful that stuff is you have to do it sometimes..... I am thinking in selling some of my stuff including headphones to finance the purchase of a SR-009/SRM-727II combo. I am not sure if I will do it but that bug keeps bitting me.

"Buy it now!" Oh, sorry eBay. I know what you mean, though. However, the great Stevie Wonder recently commented on getting older as a musician. He acknowledged his storied career and the wonderful memories it's left him with. But as much as he'd like for them to be frozen in time, it's only when we move forward that we can cherish them.
