Cheers!
 
I've been enjoying my T1's with the WA3, and the D7000's with the WA6. I hope to upgrade to the Fostex TH900's eventually, to replace the Denons. Soon, hopefully I will be getting the AT W3000ANV. Does anyone have experience with this AT and the WA6?
 
I finally got to try the LCD2 at the Woo room at a recent hifi show, and liked them a lot. I would guess though that they need more power than the WA6? (I was listening to it out of the recent WA7).

yeah WA6-SE or WA7 would drive them better. im sure the WA6 would be ok as well though, but the WA6-SE will sound more dynamic with lots of extra power left over. 
 
you could probably even buy a WA6-SE as an all rounder and just a few warmer sounding tubes to use with the T1

I truly prefer my LCD2's on the Schiit Lyr,(with BiFrost DAC), over any other amp I've heard them on.
That includes my recently purchased WA6. The Lyr is a tube amp, so you have that nice sound in an amp that is adequately powerful for the Audezers.
I prefer Sennheisers and Grados on the Woo.
ESPECIALLY the Senns.
 
 
I am in search of 9pin to 8pin adaptors to run 6sn7's on the WA6.
I imagine Woo offers them, but I just wonder if there's anybody else out there carrying them.
 
Have ordered a USAG 596 rectifier and adaptor... that will be fun, once I've done with burn in on the stock rectifier.
 
Even early on, I SO love this amp!
My Senns are spending so much time on my head, my LCDs are getting jealous!

I pulled the plug and got the WA6 non se with vcap upgrade. Is there any mod I should think of doing to pair with my akg 702 65th anniversary editions and yulong d100 Dac? I cant wait to try this setup!!! What do you guys think of this combo?

Have just sold my WA6 five minutes ago

.....but will keep the Sophia Princess and eventually will upgrade to a WA6SE....if I can find one second hand.
Meanwhile my Phoenix has to tide me over but I just think I can get more out of the HD800 with a WA6SE....at least I hope so!
Just like the "journey", trying out different configurations,components etc.

+1 for WA6SE.  Should also add a WA22 or WA5 to your list too

.  The journey will never end...I'm looking for a nice DAC to replace my Bifrost here too.

Should be a great choice.  Congrats!

The Mytek DAC's specs look great!  The form factor is just perfect to just slide into the old Bifrost's slot.  I was eyeing on the W4S DAC-2 and the Oppo BDP-105.  Thanks!     

 
Love my W4S DAC 2.  Found one for a steal on eBay.
