    EDIT: SOLD

    After upgrading to a Torpedo 3 recently (thanks @brencho), I'm going to let go of my trusty WA6 SET Class A Transformer coupled headphone amp. With the associated tubes, this is a maxed out WA6 and sounds very sweet with dynamics like the HD650, or planars like HE560.

    This amp comes with 2 after market rectifiers (plus stock for 3 total), 6 pairs of driver tubes, Woo Audio adapters for 6GL7, and ships in original packaging. The tubes may have to be shipped separately, pending packaging, but i'll cover that cost.

    I'm hoping to sell as a package deal, and include the following:

    Amp:

    Woo Audio WA6 Amplifier

    Rectifiers:
    Mullard GZ72/CV593 rectifier. Arguably one of the best rectifiers available for this amp. I had a Sophia and chose to keep the Mullard. Purchased NOS from Upscale Audio in 2013. Has ~500 hours on it. Wonderful sounding tube. ~$100 value.

    Brimar 5Z4G NOS - 20 minutes on this guy, just listened to briefly. Great sound, not as warm as the Mullard, but very good. $30 value.

    Driver Tubes:

    RCA Fat Bottle 6GL7 x 1 pair (NOS - ~150 hours)
    GE Fat Bottle 6GL7 x 1 pair (NOS - ~8 hours - just tested to verify they were good)
    RCA 6FD7 (my favorite) x 1 pair (NOS purchase) - ~350 hours on them
    ProComm Japan Made 6FD7 - a great sounding tube actually, a little less warm than the RCA, but slightly more detail/less tube warmth.
    6DR7 - NOS, 1 Pair
    Raytheon Japan made 6EW7 - no hours, never had a chance to try.

    Adapter Kit:

    Selling my official Woo Audio 6GL7 <-> 6DE7 adapters/socket savers with this bundle.

    I don't have a very flexible schedule, so it may be tough to make that work. What part of town are you in?

    Not tyre kicking, but asking for the benefit of fellow foreign devils, but is that a switchable dual-voltage power supply I see?

    I work in the Galleria, but live in Katy, so it's going to be tough making that work.

    Yeah, I feel you, I'd like to buy it from you then. If we can orchestrate a place to meet and stuff. I really just wanted to test it out and stuff first.
