08.02.2025 06:41
Woo Audio has unveiled the anniversary version of the Woo Audio WA24 20th Anniversary Edition reference tube headphone amplifier. Each element of the WA24 20th Anniversary Edition has been carefully selected to achieve the highest sound quality. The amplifier is based on four custom-made 3A/109E vacuum triodes with medium gain and direct heating, chosen for their low noise and durability. The single-ended topology of the amplifier provides the highest gain, and the oversized output transformer - the highest power and dynamic range for even the most complex headphones.
The model operates in the frequency response from 10 to 40,000 Hz and is suitable for working with headphones with an impedance of 8 - 600 Ohms and a sensitivity of 74 - 120 dB. For connection, there are balanced outputs (4-pin XLR and 4.4 mm Pentaconn) and unbalanced - 6.3 mm and 3.5 mm.
Woo Audio WA24 20th Anniversary Edition is equipped with a precision step-up transformer STEP-UP, using a nanocrystalline core and oxygen-free copper wiring. Replacing traditional active components such as vacuum tubes or transistors, it simplifies the amplifier circuit, reduces interference and significantly improves performance. The two-tier chassis of the Woo Audio WA24 20th Anniversary Edition, made from a solid aluminum billet. Each amplifier section is housed in a separate shielded case.
The Woo Audio WA24 20th Anniversary Edition tube headphone amplifier is available at a price of $ 12,999.

Burson Audio Timekeeper Voyager – High-Performance Monoblocks
Burson Audio has introduced the Timekeeper Voyager mono power amplifiers, operating in Class AB and delivering up to 200 watts per channel into a 4 Ohm load. The Timekeeper series of amplifiers has been in development at Burson Audio for over fifteen years. The latest Voyager model is designed to operate at high idle current, allowing the transistors to operate in their most linear range, thereby minimizing distortion. Despite consuming over 100 Watts in standby mode, the Voyager achieves Class AB performance in a compact design, rivaling much larger amplifiers.
