WA5-LE (Lite Edition) is a single-ended triode (SET), class A tube amplifier. It differs from the highly acclaimed WA5 only in that it is a dedicated headphone amplifier and cannot be used to drive loudspeakers. In all other respects, WA5-LE is identical to the WA5 and offers the same captivating sound quality. WA5-LE is designed around the audiophiles' favorite 300B vacuum tube. This tube provides exceptional transparency allowing the listener to experience music close to a live performance.

Madison ★★★★★

I was a bit worried about heat with a tube amp, but the WA5-LE's chassis stays surprisingly cool even after hours of listening. The clarity it brings out in my Sennheiser HD 800s is addictive, especially with complex jazz recordings.

Madison G. ★★★★★

The WA5-LE really shines with high-impedance headphones—my HD800s sound incredibly detailed and airy now. I’m impressed by how quiet the background is, even with sensitive IEMs plugged in.

Hannah ★★★★★

I’ve been running my high-impedance headphones through the WA5-LE for a week now, and the soundstage is remarkably wide and airy. The tube warmth is exactly what I was hoping for, but it never gets muddy on complex tracks. Only wish it had a preamp output, since I might want to connect speakers late
