Woo Audio Tube Mini Portable DAC and Tube Amp

The Genesis of Woo Audio's Smallest Innovation

The quest to create a compact amplifier without sacrificing sound quality led Woo Audio to develop the TUBE mini. Inspired by their previous creations, WA8 Eclipse and WA11 Topaz, the TUBE mini is born out of the desire to integrate vacuum tube warmth into a portable solid-state amp. This vision has culminated in a device that blends the best of both worlds.

Introducing the TUBE Mini

Woo Audio proudly introduces the TUBE mini, an ultra-portable vacuum-tube headphone amplifier and DAC. It's designed to deliver impressively powerful sound in a device no larger than half the size of an average smartphone. The TUBE mini is the perfect companion for audiophiles who demand high-quality sound on the go.

Cutting-Edge Technology for Supreme Sound Quality

The TUBE mini features traditional vacuum tubes combined with Woo Audio's innovative Mighty-Drive technology. This fusion offers the warm sound of vacuum tubes and the robust power of MOSFET amplification. It includes a power management system, a tube headphone amplifier, and a high-resolution lossless DAC, all encompassed in a remarkably compact design.

Vacuum Tubes on Full Display

At the core of the TUBE mini are vacuum tubes, each amplifying a single channel, paired with the MOSFET Mighty-Drive technology. This unique combination results in a sound experience unmatched by any solid-state or small tube amps, showcasing the robustness and longevity of tube technology.

Minimizing Mechanical Vibrations

Understanding the nuances of tube microphonics, Woo Audio has ingeniously mounted the tubes on a spring-loaded suspension system. This design, akin to seismic damper systems used in earthquake protection, significantly reduces mechanical vibrations, ensuring a pristine audio experience.

Signature Sound with ESS SABRE DAC

The TUBE mini incorporates an internal ESS SABRE DAC, optimized for streaming and lossless playback of Hi-Res formats. It delivers Woo Audio's signature sound, faithfully reproducing music with the authenticity and richness as originally recorded.

The TUBE mini is designed for simplicity and ease of use. It features balanced and unbalanced outputs, supports high-resolution audio formats, and is USB bus-powered for plug-and-play compatibility with various devices. Its compact dimensions and lightweight design make it the ideal choice for audiophiles on the move.

Engineered for Audiophiles

The TUBE mini is recommended for full-size, power-demanding headphones, offering a balanced headphone amplifier and DAC. Its specifications include a maximum power output of 1W @ 8 Ohms, a broad frequency response, and a high signal-to-noise ratio. Crafted with an anodized aluminum chassis and available in multiple colors, it's not only a powerhouse of performance but also a stylish accessory.

Craftsmanship and Portability

Proudly designed and assembled in New York, USA, the TUBE mini exemplifies craftsmanship and innovation. With its compact dimensions and light weight, it sets a new standard for portable audio excellence, offering audiophiles the freedom to enjoy high-fidelity sound wherever they go.

The Woo Audio TUBE mini is more than just a portable DAC and tube amp; it's a testament to the harmonious blend of traditional audio technology and modern engineering, designed to elevate your listening experience to new heights.
