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


I heard the Whammerdyne "The Truth" at an audio show several years ago and remember absolutely loving the demo.

Can anyone offer any thoughts on these wonderful amps?

To be clear, Whammerdyne is still in business and developing new products. They did however discontinue the model you bought is all.

That’s awesome!   Hope you enjoy it.   I spoke to them over at Whammer and unfortunately It’s a little lower in power than what I needed.  He is definitely passionate about his gear.   

A lot of people are put off by the low power output of his (the whammer) amps. I was too. My downstairs living room system is a rather standard McIntosh/B & W system running at 600 watts/channel. So I was skeptical of his low output amps. No longer. I was able to score his lat Truth amp at 4.2 watts/channel. Absolute sonic bliss with Horning (98db) speakers. It's about matching the right set up. 

@sauvie4007  how are you enjoying your Truth amp? 
Which 2A3 tubes have you tried it with? 

 

Loving the Whammer!

Currently running some NOS Sylvania "spring top" tubes, gives it a little more bass than the stock JJ. I also tried some NOS RCA single plates, which were awesome, but I wanted to save them (not sure why) and feel that the Sylvania's are not really a step back at all. I also snatched a pair of NOS Sylvania "Green Leaf" tubes, that Pat recommended, but I haven't tried them yet. The NOS market is tight, so if you can find a good set of tubes, grab them.
