Woo Audio WA6 + WA6SE: Tubes, Comments, Pictures, and Advice
Jun 21, 2015 at 2:47 AM Post #2,120 of 4,839
Looking at getting a wa6se or wa2/22... Anyone know how the 6se compares to the Schiit lyr2? I think my lyr2 is ok, but I'm not all that happy with its bass extension I guess.

 
I own both, the Lyr 2 is really nice but is a hybrid amp; if you like the tube sound you really want all tubes (and that costs more).

Wood stand and rubber feet?  Yikes, dude.  You're losing detail. 
 
But the beer looks great.
 
Try a Symposium shelf with no feet, like so.  You'll be amazed:
 
 
 

 
 
BTW, I have no connection to Symposium.  In fact, my base is actually a clone.
 
Peace from Japan.

Yes, I did - sorry I wasn't very clear! I've got the stock 6DE7s, of course, and a pair of Tronix 6EM7s cos they were cheap and I fancied giving them a try. Out of those, the 6FD7s are unquestionably the best, but I just wondered if there was something out there that I was missing out on! Perhaps not!

Love my 6SE, though I am a bit jealous of all you 6 owners with your 6SN7s!

Need to try 6f8s

7n7s arrived today. They are warm, the growler is cold, and it's after 5:00. Let burn-in commence!

Hello! Been reading through the thread the last couple of days and I'm looking for the 6FD7 driver tubes. What do you think is the best place to order them from?
I've been looking at the Woo website and he sells matched pairs. Maybe a little expensive but is this a good source for the 6FD7's?

eBay is your best bet, imo
But tubes are costly.
$50 a pair is really a decent price.

Thanks, any specific brands that are better than others? No need for a matched pair right?
Woo Audio sells matched pairs, big bottle for $52, maybe that's a pretty good deal after all.
Anyone knows if he sells NOS or new producion?
