I enjoyed hearing about the results. What genre of music did you feature?

 
Didn't have a huge amount of time to tube roll as had a pair of cans and 2 pairs of speakers to dem, but spun Annie Lenox and Fleetwood Mac with the 596.
 
The bass was really fast and tight coming out of such small cabinets with the 596 slam behind them the bass guitars came through into the room live :)

I ended up ordering a Synology NAS to replace my aging WHS.  Want to thank those on the Woo thread who provided guidance.  Once I get everything working I'll report back how it sounds pumping through the WA22

  Definitely not the most sexy purchase I could have made.  Would have rather purchased Seamaster's WA22.  Gotta keep the plumbing working though or amps and headphones aren't much use ...

had w5k sounded good with wa6-se. no noise either considering its sensitivity. however besides woo, there are probably better amp choices for the audio technicas.

Woo Woo the order i placed with Woo for 1 matched pair of 6GL7/6EM7 plus one pair of 6GL7->6DE7 Teflon tube adapters, has arrived i have been burning theses tubes in now for 8 hours, i could wax on here telling how the vocals sound like honey dripping on the wings of angles...but what you want to no is this.
I can now here the breath of the trumpet the lift of the air from his finger been lifted of the trumpet, more sound stage a lot more detail and more air more frequency, when i listed to some classical guitar i could feel the string been plucked, and there is more bass as well not a lot but you here it and controlled.

My Woo WA5 is currently with my dealer for upgrades - based on others success here I'm going to try the Mundorf Silver in Oil as coupling caps in place of the V-caps and Audionote resistors. Also been having some microphony problems, so Im hoping we can identify and fix those also!
 
Alas this means no Woo for over a month :frowning2: not sure how i'll cope!
