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.....

If an end user (owner) ever gets the chance to hear the stock Voyager or any of the new GAN amps next to a modded one,  hope they report their observations here…

The stars would have to align just so, but I envision perhaps two audio friends who each have the amp—one modded, the other stock.


@kuribo You are making conclusions about something you have not heard. So you really do not know anything about this specific amp or mods.
I am commenting on your methodology- I don't have to hear anything to know that your conclusions aren't based on anything factual, just your own opinions. That's fine for you but it really has no value to anyone other than yourself unless you back it up with evidence.

Funny the Benchmark is the one with the most clarity. It is also the one with the lowest distortion. Imagine that!
As soon as the words mods or such get thrown around then the objectivists have to come in and tell us subjectivists that it is all nonsense. The trouble is......90% or more of people reading this thread are subjectivists.......they believe you can hear differences and that these differences are fairly universal......another words....10 people in the same room will usually hear the same thing.

10% of people sitting in a church do not believe what is being said there (you know, they "have" to be there). Those 10% at least have enough common sense to keep their "opinion" to themselves. On a public forum.....no such decorum!.....he he....a rhyme.. You just say your opinion over and over and over again.......well, because, "it needs to be said, it is the truth....and I am saving the world....and....I am smarter than you"

90% of people here believe it is a FACT that all audio gear sounds different and that there are practically NO measurements that tell us what sounds best. It is mostly ART......everyone has an opinion and they are all valid.....for them......but again....most hear the same thing and like the same thing when all are in attendance together (not at a trade show where the level of consciousness is so varied). I am talking small gatherings of people who ALREADY believe in differences and TRUST their ears. I have attended lots of these gatherings......and the consensus is almost always 100%.......and when it is not....it is usually the person who owns a piece of gear that is the dissenter (ego attachment).

We can trust our hearing.....there is TRUTH in audio.....but you have to do many, many, many super critical listening tests to really KNOW anything........and this is why there are so many varied opinions....as there is way too much gear out there and the opportunity to have them at the same time is extremely limited. We are all bozos on the buss.....doing the best we can. What is best today will be tomorrows boat anchor.....that is for sure.

Have a GREAT DAY......blessings and Love.
@millercarbon,


I don’t need to figure anything out.  I don’t care if you or anyone mod or not but I would never mod anything until the warranty was over.

This is a hobbyist's group, so opinions are what you get. It's not a scientific forum so if you want measurements, blind listening tests and other such distractions, you're likely to be disappointed here.

That's fine for you but it really has no value to anyone other than yourself unless you back it up with evidence.
Is has no value to anyone - no one at all? And you know this how? And who is it exactly that has appointed you as their spokesperson? Details, please.
