My Elac Carinas need way more than this. Who knew buying bookshelves to save space meant I had to clear out a wall?
Another saved image from years ago.
This lot was for sale on eBay from Las Vegas Nevada, so *they* went to networkable DCi boxes and sold off all of these. Casinos, Pbhh. :)

Woo Audio WA7 Fireflies - tube headphone amplifier plus DAC, silver or black finish. Original design of the tube protective "cage", other aspects are just OK.

I think this looks delightful, especially with the optional matching power supply. I'm not a valve amp person generally, or even a headphone person really, but the sonics might tame the sometimes too-exciting treble on my Sony Z1R. Perhaps when my Mojo breaks. :)

Thats some serious office space! About aestetichs, why dont they make VFD´s anymore. Really miss those, they have a certain glow and feel that oled´s dont have.
Yes, it is odd that Audio Research chose to mismatch the colors of the OLEDs in comparison to their VU meters lights (i.e. green vs. blue).
I wonder if they are configurable. In any case, the Audio Research frontplates are gorgeous as always.
