LSA Voyager GAN Amplifier

Just got mine last week.  After 24 hours of play all I can say is that this is not your father's class D amplifier.  There is not one thing about its sound that reminds me of the class D gremlins that I do not like.  The low end filled in and now has deep impact, the midrange is the love child of a beautiful tube and clean hybrid amp - just gorgeous.  Highs are very clean and extended. Spatial cues are top notch. My system has had some damn good tube and solid state amps in it before and it has never sounded this good.  I am blown away with the quality of sound coming from class D amplification at this price point.

This 300 wpc amplifier is a real winner.....

FYI.....the LSA Voyager and the Peachtree GaN 400 use the same amp boards and power supply.  The only thing different is the case, jacks and wires.  They will sound slightly different, as everything makes a difference.....but basically.....when someone is talking about the sound of one......they are talking about the sound of both.  We shall soon see whether or not the new $3000 Wryed for Sound 400 W GaN amp is also using these modules or have developed their own.

BTW.....the LSA/Peachtree amps do not have zero feedback......they use low feedback.  Darko is wrong.

ricevs: Change the fuse in a Krell....you will get different bass response.
That’s a real beauty, (it’s a good laugh so long as your not serious)

atmasphere: I’ve not seen anyone detracting from Krell on this thread.
Pays to look a little harder, or you only see what you want to see
" Larger quantity of bass is always associated with lower quality and accuracy, as shown by the Krell."

What exactly is being said here? Its possible I misinterpreted it and if that's the case my prior statement would be false. FWIW I've not heard excess bass from any system I've heard with Krell amps. As solid state amps go, if anything I'd say they are a bit dark on top compared to the brightness of many solid state amps. And that's not a bad thing- most solid state amps are bright due to distortion.


**If** you can change a fuse in a Krell and the bass is different, I think you'll also find that the mids and highs are different too.

Every one knows big Krell’s bass is their forte.


Take a chill pill, your still       off over the GaN by GaN Class-D thread which all sold out and I pulled.
