Different user name, messed up email and shut myself out …. duh !

I posted a few weeks or so back about my noisy WA6. I eventually sent it back to the local dealer I bought it from. He tested it against another unit he had in stock and agreed mine wasn’t right so a new one that he confirmed was quiet is on it’s way to me soon.

I agree 100%. I never had the want to roll tubes again.

The layering and transparency is insane. It is technically capable, but still has the warmth of musicality of slower-sounding tubes, but without the drawbacks of less transparency, congested soundstage, etc.

Its magical that it can blend the best of both worlds of a warm-sounding tube and a more clinical-sounding tube

Hey, have you tried against 596 USAF or Mullard GZ32 also?

Can anyone suggest their favorite 5U4G tube for the WA6? I just ordered it will be here in 3 weeks and would like some options

It's pretty much an investment paying almost as much as the amp itself for a rectifier, but according to @ColSaulTigh it might me worth considering if you can affort another 700 EURs for it?

You can buy these socket saver from Amazon for 13DE7 tube. Woo Audio only sales socket adapter for 13EM7 not 13DE7.

This is a 9 pin socket saver on Woo Audio's website. This wouldn't work?

It works, but you have to spend $200.00 for two adapters. Buy the cheaper socket savers and save the money for tubes rolling.

Just worried about the quality of the ones on Amazon. I don't mind spending the $200
