Although I’m a bit of a Woo fanboy (I have 3 amps and recently sold a 4th), I’m not sure the WA2 would be much of a step up from your WA7 2nd gen. I have the WA22, which is in the same price range as the MHA200, and it’s a great amp but it’s fully balanced and at its best with balanced sources and headphone cables. If it’s in your budget, the WA5 or WA5LE are awesome. On the other hand, if you like the McIntosh look, the MHA200 should be a great choice as well. I haven’t heard it myself, but it gets great reviews.
