I was literally just listening to first gen WA6 with Verite Open 2 minutes ago. Plenty of power and with the right tubes sounds amazing!

This makes me very very happy to hear. Pun intended

You do realise that, at the end of each year, whoever posts the worst pun here gifts a good NOS tube to everyone else on this thread?……

I think I'm too biased to be a good judge here!

You made me laugh out loud. Very funny and solid material. I love this thread too much

An excellent tube combination for WA6 Gen1 is the Brimar CV1863 rectifier with a pair of NOS gold pin Mullard 6201 (on 12A#7 —> 6DE7 adapters).

[Deep, clear, sinuous bass; palpable, sculpted midrange; extended treble with body, without etch, without glare. The layering and precision of imaging in soundstage is really engaging. Overall, musically coherent!]

About to pull the trigger on a WA6 2nd Gen, i'd be importing to UK. Can I just confirm it'll run on power here with just the right setting selected? No need for right transformers etc. Woo website suggests it will. Thanks.

I do not have WA6 2nd Gen, but i do have WA6 SE 2nd Gen. There is a red switch in the back that you can switch to 220v or 115v.

Just be sure to check where the switch is set before firing it up.

 

[RobWilde]

Thanks both.

Hello, I don't suppose you could point me to a link for these adapters please. Been trying to find them tonight as I plan to try your setup and, let's just say I don't know enough to work out what's what. Can't find anything clearly labelled. Thanks.

Congratulations! It's a great tube that. No doubt you will enjoy your purchase. One of my personal favourites in my collection.

listen in the dark, the Sophia's give a good light show
