Actually I just decided today to move them and maybe even my Woo adapters for them as well, but hadn't listed them yet.

No thoughts at this writing. Though, I am curious if you might move the TS-BGRP 6F8G's...

Hmmm... will put together a PM containing lots and lots of $$$ after a late lunch.

 Ok, maybe no cash but a couple of questions that are convertible to cash.

Thanks for sharing. I'm glad to hear that you recognize the seller because I ordered a pair of his vt231 smoke glass. I checked the date codes and they were early 1940s and the tests results looked good. It was nice having so many to choose from. I ended up picking a couple of the quietest per his measurements that still had good scores.

I have read a bunch of impressions on the 6sn7 reference thread, which put the options I outlined on my radar. However with so many vintage year differences etc it's a little overwhelming.

Sid-Fi, you should visit the 6SN7 addicts forum on Head-FI to hear about different impressions. From my experience the TS BGRPs > Sylvania VT-231s > RCA VT 231. However, the TS are 4 times the price of the others.
All 3 tubes are nice tubes.
The seller Walt2680 is a very good seller. I have purchased quite a bit from him.

Nicely presented. I've always enjoyed the form factor of my Mac mini music server and its place inside the listening room.

 
I was just going to buy the Mac Mini, but I don't see anything mentioned about a digital or coaxil S/PDIF.... does the mini come with either one?

Just a little Woo porn along with some new cans. So far a good pairing.

*Almost* as good as the T1.  If your a fan, they're in that league, sound sig. Different, but round thereabouts.
 
They've got some faults. Mids are pulled back a bit for me, treble is nice except for a hotspot in there somewhere that comes out on some tracks, bass is 'better' for me than the HD800. Perhaps not the sub bass detail, but it has some physicality to it. Some slam. Not LCD2 or Ultrason 900, but more so than the 800, bout like the T1, perhaps more detailed though.
Pretty fun faults and all. I've only heard them on the Woo, so I can't speak to anything else. I'm gonna keep em around for a bit.

Yes, it does. The little one (Mac mini) features both Analog & Digital Out. Both from the headphone jack in the rear. It is here, where I once used my Wireworld Supernova 6 Optical cable with mini-TOSlink to TOSlink connector to connect my DACs or USB bridge.

Nice Obzilla! As a long time HD 650 owner, those HD700 have my attention. :D

Nice pic obzilla.
 
That would be great if someone can let me know how the WA5LE sounds with the Fostex TH900. I am struggling with the Fostex and LCD-3.

That's a pretty sweet dilema you've got there!
