About the WA5
The Woo Audio WA5 is a high-end, all-tube stereo amplifier that has set the standard for 300B-based designs since its introduction in 2008. It features separate, discrete amplification sections for both speakers and headphones, ensuring optimal performance for each use case. The amplifier is designed and assembled in New York, USA, and is available in a dual-chassis configuration for enhanced signal isolation and reduced noise. The WA5 is highly regarded for its ability to drive both demanding headphones and high-efficiency speakers with ease, making it one of the most versatile amplifiers in its class. The front panel offers user-customizable headphone output settings (HI/LO power, HI/LO impedance, and HI/LO level), allowing users to fine-tune the synergy between amplifier and headphones. At maximum, the headphone outputs deliver up to 8 watts per channel, sufficient for even the most power-hungry headphones. The amplifier is built with premium internal components, including Mundorf capacitors and WBT Nextgen binding posts, and features a robust, anodized aluminum chassis available in black or silver.
