Hmmm.. Food for thought, thanks Silent One and grokit.

 
Your new signature is looking right nice, Ahzari. 

 Can't wait to hear the TH900 paired with a Woo... or even my own amps!

All of my 6FD7 tubes showed up today, but I can't listen to them until I get new capacitors . So tempting to just try them.

You find any DIY help yet? What caps would you like to feature?

CV181 tubes are in the WA5 now, working from home today so plenty of time to let these guy's burn in with the GZ34's and Fleetwood Mac.
 
Ear is still a little sore but getting better thankfully! Still a little muffled, I thought when I plugged the Mullard's in, one channel was quieter than the other, until I swapped the headphone around!

No DIY people yet, but I did find a place that will do it for me, I just don't know if I want to pay the fee(85$ I believe), lol. I'm going to get the http://search.digikey.com/us/en/products/EET-ED2D471CA/P11614-ND/483212 , and I tracked down some black gate N 16v470 that I will probably get as well. Would you do the same?

I am adventurous but have not worked on internals yet. I'd be open to having it done though.

Thank you Silent One! its really really hard not to want the TH900s if you have ever been a fan of the D7000s. I always loved my Denons and these were the most natural upgrade, the price is definitely steep but the way I see it, if you can sell some audio equipment you see this replacing (as I did) - its worth it 

.
 
With the 6SE the TH900 sound great, the bass is remarkable/even better than the famed LCD3 and Signature Pros in that area (at least to my ears), but the treble and mids seem more neutral, not as liquid as I was hoping, but I feel that may be my amp. the 6SE has always been pretty neutral with all my headphones. Hence my questions about the WA22 and WA5LE, not that I can afford either right now, but maybe I can save up in the coming months.. and here I thought the Fostex would satiate my spending appetite for a while...

Currently sitting in a room full of girls - Faye Wong, Sammi Cheng, Karen Mok, Gladys Knight, Vanessa-Mae, Soraya... D7000's making it right! Well, on my budget anyway. With patience (and a job) I'll bring those Fostex home later this year hopefully.

My backup USAF-596 (NOS 1956) arrived yesterday. I set out last night to use the listening session for burn-in. Got so wrapped up in hearing these fantastique females perform, I forgot to install the rectifier. 

 Maybe Friday night...

Wow, SO you still up? Keeping the bay warm with your tubes?

Can't go to bed until breakfast... and Karen Mok "I Will Be Fine" 

  on volume 10!

Hummm, Fleetwood Mac. My favorite band!!

Hopefully they will mend their differences again and go back to the studio for one more new album as planned before Stevie extended her tour, again.
BTW going to her concert next month.

I think you will liek it. I ordered my WA5-LE after listening to my T1 on Jack's demo WA5-LE.

I have a T1 on the way, I am looking forward to seeing what it can do on the WA5.
The HD800, while amazing in it's own right, wasn't quite for me, hopefully the T1 retains most of what I liked about the HD800 and shuffles the sound more towards were I like it.

I hope so. It has arrived today, so as soon as I'm off work, I get to find out.
Now I'm just waiting on some tubes in the mail.
