GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager?

Peachtree 400 and LSA Voyager GaN amps: Does anyone have direct experience with both of these amps? Can you comment on any differences that might exist in sound? I know the internals are supposed to be the same but even if that is true implementation can make a difference. Both are highly regarded by those who own them.

Might also be helpful if you listed the rest of your system (Pre and speakers).

My current system is: Bricasti M3 DAC; Rogue RP-7 (NOS) pre; Bel Canto Ref600M amps; Fyne F1-8 speakers.

Thanks in advance!

Really? And what review would that be? If you are addressing me, I already own one and love it.

If you don't have personal experience then keep 3rd party comments to yourself, or at least link to them. I have had one for 1.5 years+ and LOVE it. The more upgrades to cabling and transport I have done since owning it, the better it gets

I think he meant this one , don't really understand what this may yield referring to sound quality, apparently highs are fine with this amp. I may also confirm that tomorrow

It is pretty strange that in this day of measurements, that LSA would allow a product that measures this poorly to hit the market without a few tweaks that would drastically improve its sinaid and other measurements and maybe even the sound.

But, what I really appreciate about ASR is their teardowns...lots of people measure and listen...but that doesn't tell the whole story about safety and reliability.  It looks like the gan350 is a mixed bag:
