Hey all,
I new to the head-fi community, I recently purchased a WA2 to pair with my T1s. My question is what is the best rectifier tubes for that setup? I mostly listen to rock, synthpop, indiepop, electronica and trance. Is it even worth getting new rectifiers? Or are the stock tubes good enough? Thanks for all the replies in advance.

@ MacedonianHero Sure you're not thinking about rectifying the WA22, not the WA2?
Oops...sorry. Seeing things in my old age.
In that case, EZ80 Telefunken or Mullard are the best way to go.
As much enthusiasm as you have for gear, you're not old, just year challenged
Lmao.........that's been some time ago buddy, I'm passed the 50 mark
We're still young....its a state of mind.
Absolutely, we're kids at heart, or we'd be smart enough to be happy with what gear we have instead of keeping up with the new goodies!
Ok, so maybe I wouldn't be smart
