Whammerdyne “The Truth” or their other amps .....

Hi,

No I have not. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. I’m torn between trying to get the “Truth” amp or getting the more wallet friendly DGA1 which looks awesome.
I’m generally a 300b fan but that Whammerdyne Truth amp hit me hard. Truly awesome and I’m sure either will be perfect on my Avantgarde Duo XD.

get one of the Whammerdyne's that have the external transformers, worth the extra cost over the DGA1, as the transformers make a huge difference!

Great advice. I’ve been obsessing about what model to get. They all look very well made. 
I prefer warm/sweet and assume they all have the same or similar house sound.

 I love the bias control of the DGA1. Some of the others look a little more complicated but not too difficult - if that makes any sense.

I didn't see (or know) of a difference on the others, after visiting with Pat a few times, I think the key is getting the biggest transformers you can afford for the best sound, that seems to be the major difference between the models.

Well isn’t this peculiar. I distinctly remember another “joeinid” from other forums saying he emphatically was done with “tubes”. Now look what we got here...haha. Just teasing you Joe. I’m desperately wanting to try another First Watt amp but I myself am in love el84 tubes and have an AudioNote amp on the way in a couple weeks.

My vote is get the DGA1 as that’s what I could realistically afford down the line and would love to hear your thoughts on it. :)

Good luck in your pursuit!
