Didn't have a good impression of the WA33 as a pre.. But for some reason or another I decided to give it another go.
Swapped out some cables and tried the TWL Digital power cord and Cardas Clear Reflection XLR into the Apollon power amp. Using an Arctic Cables Palladium speaker tap adaptor.
Not sure if it is the cable swaps or having run in the power amp recently, but I really don't remember it sounding so good. Previously I was getting really stringent constrained sound and lack of low end. Treble was a pain.. But it sounds very smooth now and there is definitely no shortage of bass or sub-bass.
Perhaps my evaluation of the wa33 as a pre was premature.
