E-MU Teak Repair - Any Experience?
Hello, I am wondering if anybody has any experience contacting E-MU support, sending them headphones for repair, or getting them back fixed. Can anybody share any experience? I have been emailing them for a while now, but nobody has responded. Thank you.

pc38x still has audio coming through with the volume dial turned all the way down
Finally got my hands on the pc38x. I mostly wanted to try this headset because of all the good things i heard about it. Out of the box i wasn’t really impressed. My 50 dollar astros were just as loud if not louder. After setting up an EQ on dolby access i got them sounding a little better. But one thing that really bothers me is the volume dial on the headset. When i turn it all the way down there’s so much audio still coming through, like the headset is turned up 10-20%. Is this normal?

My little room work in progress.
It's not done, I apologize for the mess. Health issues have put this on hold. It's a small room and I'm likely to sell off my KEF 104.2 loudspeakers and some other gear after surrendering the living room to my wife after her patience of 35 years. She deserved her own little sanctuary.

New addition to the stable.
I made the decision to take advantage of the $600. price on the HiFiMan Arya Stealth, here pictured with the Meze 109 Pro. I think 2025 is going to be a really uneventful year so far as new purchases. I've also upgraded my Fiio BTR7 to the newly released BTR17 and I purchased the Earmen stack which consists of Amplifier, Linear PS, DAC & Streamer.

I sold off my WA7 last year because I thought I could get by on a hifi-m8 with a balanced connection. The only result was that I listened to my LCD-3 less and less. To me, the WA7 by itself represented the point of diminishing returns. By default, I think Woo Audio did an exceptional job pairing a excellent DAC and outstanding standard tubes for the amp.
I'm looking forward to pairing it with my LCD-X!
I was willing to step down from a LCD-3 to the LCD-X to save a few dollars. I don't think there is a simple step down from the WA7. My current DACMini is definitely not it.
I am still on the fence about the tube power supply. It looks cool but takes up double the space. I am skeptical that the power supply itself will dramatically improve the sound. Perhaps a little different. But better? I ordered without. Added. And thinking of deleting it again. Second time around for you with the WA7. Are you going SS or tube for the power supply this time?
Personally for me, I was really satisfied with the Vali sound but hated the noise floor and microphonics. Tried the Magni and it definitely didn't sound as good as the Vali for my taste, with HD650. Hence I'm now looking for a low-maintenance tube amp that sounds good, looks good, without overheating problem, won't blow my headphones up (this requirement takes Valhalla 2 and Lyr 2 out of the question). That basically leaves me with Crack and Woo. Given that I'm probably not that hugely sensitive to minor details in sound, I think WA7 would suit me better than other offerings from Woo.
Now just seriously debating between WA7 and Crack. What's pulling me back from buying the crack is that I have a pair of HD650 as well as K712, and Crack won't work nearly as well as WA7 for the K712 due to the output impedance. Maybe I should consider WA7 vs Crack+O2...
I'm also very hesitant on that audio360 article, this guy is talking a +40% increase in soundstage using the WA7tp over the SS.
If you want to upgrade to the WA7tp afterwards, as long as you bought the WA7 already, just tell them the serial number on it and it's available for $400 ($80 more, but you can always make that decision later).
AudioMan612: "I'm currently trying to figure out if Woo will still allow people with older WA7's to buy the new tube power supply at a discounted price as opposed to $649. They were basing it off serial number before. I'd love to get one, but I just can't spend any more money on audio gear for a while.
Edit: Looks like I can get it for $399 still. Well, that will have to wait unfortunately."
