you have a WDS-1 already?  how it compare to your former.

Better.  I like it better than the Bifrost and better than the VDA-2.  Not just the features, but I think the sound is clearer.  Feature wise, it has everything you could want in a DAC.  Build quality is every bit as good as Woos other stuff (owned two amps).  I wish I could look inside, but I don't know how to open it.

I'm very tempted to get one to compare it to the PWD...

It will be 3 weeks waiting for me on Monday, so wondering the same thing as you...

5-6 weeks is pretty common (I was quoted 3 took about 6 for the SE), I know its hard not knowing, specially when they give you an estimate thats off - but not much can be done.. you'll be happy when it arrives though!

On the GEC, I did have a conversion on this thread with Rob (Skylab) and both of us agreed that 6080 are not really worth it compare to regular 6AS7G with the only exception of GEC.  The GEC 6AS7G raise another level but the gain is lower compare to 7236 and 5998, it is a prefect match to both Denon D700 and HD800 but not so great with LCD.  Every since I got my hands on the GEC 6080, I either gave or sell all other 6080 tubes.

Just placed a "wanted" ad, would love to find a lightly-used matched pair of these.

Good luck, I was lucky to pick up "panamared" gec 6as7g few days ago. I have not tried them yet, just picked them up from th PO but was busy at the office, will give them some love tomorrow as I will be working from home.

They will be my backup since I was regretting selling my backup pair few weeks ago.

But if you get tied-up, 

 I'll pay for the round-tripper (USPS). Put 50 hours on 'em and make 'em do what they do!

That would be me. I was quoted 3 weeks and didn't hear anything well after that. I don't think Jack will proactively email you at all about delays, but will reply. I emailed him after 4 weeks and was surprised to hear back that it would be another 2 weeks. It felt like a really long time, but these are high-end long-term purchases in my opinion so the wait really becomes pretty insignificant in the long run. Then again, its easy to say that when I'm listening to it as I type.

Recently an owner reported it took 6 weeks for his to arrive. Heck, I've been waiting 7 months for a pair of Thunderpants.
Me too.

Man, nothing like sitting in my recliner in the dark with the glow of my WA22 after a 16 hour day...

Let's just see if anybody did actually see my question. Has anybody listened to both Woo amps and Little Dot amps?

 

[Silent One]

Hope you get feedback soon. However, this is one side of the party. Perhaps, if you also pose the question to the Little Dot MK VIII SE thread as well...

I owned a MK VI and the WES - not really a useful comparison, though I was pretty happy with both

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I just received shipping confirmation for my WA6SE! 3 weeks minus one day since I placed my order. Will post some picks when I receive it, including the loop out option and integration in my audio rack.

Congrats! It's only 0815 hours on the West coast - so, I'll raise a glass of Mimosa in your direction while I enjoy my waffles!
