The Galion Audio TS A75 amplifier: Great amplifier for very little money


Just finished my review on the Galion Audio TS A75 amplifier for Stereo Times. There has been a ton of very thumbs up YouTube reviews on the A75. I believe mine is the first written one. If you are looking for a very inexpensive,$1495, amplifier that just kills stuff like Rotel, NAD, Emotiva, and Marantz and offers tube like virtues in the mid-range, yet still offers excellent dynamics and bass this amp might be for you. If any of you own it already it would be great if you shared your impressions on this thread.

Based on their website it would take three weeks to a month to get it so since your review just went live a week ago how would anyone have had time to get it and break it in?  Shipping estimates seem to be a bit excessive to start with.  

The Galion offerings rely on a small network of Thomas’ YouTube pals to hype (assuming Doge’s) product. Perhaps no one is taking the bait when the market is flooded with other established brands from the far East.

@yakbob - What were your experiences then, in listening to Galion gear?

Perhaps a very large percentage of people who buy audiophile gear are not on and do not care about Audiogon forums. 

"very inexpensive"

that’s very relative. My 2cents on using this term: don’t. Normal "paycheck to paycheck with 3 kids in college" dads can be audiophiles too. Inexpensive/affordable - to them is $75.

"Jeez"

do we owe you something?

I watched the video a few months back and it did not sit well with me. Something was off. Boasting about your own product like it was made in heaven for half an hour was weird, but I have no doubt it sounds nice

I do like the stereotimes article, it conveys it well. If there wasn’t a 5% restocking fee, and a 30 days trial. I would seriously consider it.

With Doge/Galion? None. I don’t maintain a YouTube channel, and it’s merely a rebrand exercise

My post I was not meant to slight Teajay or his contributions here. I enjoy his reviews and often find great music recommendations or insight to pieces he reviews. Apologies to Teajay if my original post came off that way.
