They are still doing the math but expect at least 1k on top of current price.

At least it helps the value for those that have one!

Not wrong. As much as it hurts to see price increases it really makes a difference in resale value for already aquired gear.

Looking at my complete setup the msrp increased by roughly 3.5k€ in the past year...

Thanks for that input!
Placed and order today at a local shop and got it delivered in a half hour.

I have it powered off an AQ niagara 1200, fed from wall by an AQ tornado high current with an SR orange. From niagara to amp, I'll be using an AQ tornado source also with SR orange.

Will update after a few weeks I suppose!
roasty, what is the specs of the fuse ? Ampere ;slow blo ; 5x20mm .
Thanks 🙏

I got the adapters for the NOS Western Electric driver tubes. FIrst impressions are wow. Bass quantity and bass slam have increased. I'm liking these a lot with hip-hop. It looks like Woo Audio is sold out of the WE NOS tubes. I actually got mine WE tubes from another tube place (which were also cheaper than Woo Audio's price). The Woo Audio adapters are very well made. They sound and look great :L3000:

I have three adaptors working OK and one that is malfunctioning. the replacement adaptor I received recently was also malfunctioning (the tube refused to light up and glow and also less music from that channel). so am waiting on a 2nd replacement and fingers crossed, third time lucky..!

@Ciggavelli are your tubes dead quiet?

How much were the adapters from Woo?

did u have to special order them via email correspondence with Woo, or they're available off their website directly?
Get the adapters with the Raytheon 5842s. Those tubes are like $5 each. So, you'll get the adapters and some backup tubes as well

These new tubes are a great upgrade. Vocals are a little more forward and that bass is crazy. I didn’t think WA33 bass could be improved, but these WE tubes somehow have done it
