I’ve had both the Galion TS P75 and TS A75 as the foundation of my audio setup for over six months now. I originally hesitated to write a review because I’m fairly new to Hi Fi and didn’t feel qualified to comment. But after adding a good R2R DAC—the final piece of the puzzle—I finally feel like my system has taken shape into something truly special for me.

For me, the point of the hobby is engaging with music on a deeper level than the casual listener. I often catch myself having those “holy … does that ever sound good!” moments. I’m starting to understand the sense of “air” that Thomas talks about so often.
Let me share a quick story. Last week during Christmas, I demoed my system for our guests. One of them is a professional drummer. After a few tracks, he said he could almost feel the texture of the snare drum—especially on jazz recordings. With singers who tend to work close to the mic, like Billie Eilish or Vienna Teng, I could clearly tell how close they were.

That got me thinking about what I’d been missing all these years, and why this experience feels so striking. It’s the texture—those microdetails I’ve never really heard before. Breaths. String scrape. Drumhead tension. These subtle cues are finally being revealed. I’m hearing more than just notes and chords; I’m hearing the physicality of the instruments as they’re played.
And I think that’s ultimately what the audiophile pursuit of “more” is all about.

I am very impressed with the positive change in listening pleasure I am experiencing with the addition of the P75.
I have never heard anything this good in my home before.
I’m not able to describe what I’m hearing like a reviewer could but I would not expect anything to better what I have without spending far more than I’m able to spend .
I would definitely recommend this piece to everyone.

Who really loves music more?
The one who listens to it anywhere and anytime via smartphone, Bluetooth headphones, or TV?

Or us?

The ones who need a treated dedicated room for it, who meticulously obsess over speaker placement, where not only every single task in the playback process is handled by a dedicated device, but even cables seem to play an essential role.

Instead of actually listening to music, we spend time on YouTube letting ourselves be persuaded by equipment that’s far beyond our budget.
Instead of truly enjoying music, we focus on picking out individual sounds.
We dream of the next amplifier—and as soon as we have it, it doesn’t take long before we’re longing for the next one.

Just like junkies craving their next fix, we crave the next upgrade.

But Thomas delivers the finest heroin here!
Anyone can afford it if they’re willing to make the necessary sacrifices—and once you’ve had it, you don’t want anything else anymore!

I’m a proud owner of the TS A20 and the Navy preamp, and I’ve shamelessly “borrowed” the TS120 SE for so long that Thomas could probably report me for it by now. And sure, I could now talk about how great the stage is, how every detail is brought to light without ever becoming fatiguing, and so on—but in the end, only one thing matters: I no longer long for any other power or preamp.

And when I just want to listen to music briefly in between, it’s like taking a nap without setting an alarm. It might last 10 minutes or 3 hours—and when you’re done, you don’t quite know who you are, when it is, or where you are. It takes a little while to return to reality.

And I love it!

Music sounds so good with Galion that it takes first place again.

I’ve owned lots of equipment from McIntosh, Carver, Parasound etc The TS P75 is a game changer for me
Highend Sound at a down to earth price, talk about a no-brainer,Bravo Thomas Bravo

Build Quality 5 out of 5 not had time too assemble MY TS120 SE YET
INTO MY SYSTEM . Will in few days Time? Must say it was double
boxed . Excellent packaging. Thankyou Thomas and Galion. would highly recommend anyone Looking for HIGH Quality tube AMP.

Awesome

Thank you Thomas for making a great amp! Wish the light was a bit dimmer. The ONLY complaint! thanks!!

I don't write review often. Actually never.
But the Navy from Galion deserves one.
I built a new sound system in a second room lately. It's a hobby room (mainly for 3D printing). The space is a bit crowded but the acoustic is pretty good. The system evolves around these components: speaker GR Research X-LS Encore, DIY amp class A F5M, and my old and trusty pre-amp Sim-Audio P5003.
Usually when I change a piece of equiment the enhancement is subtle.
I was suspecting the pre-amp was olding back the performance of the whole system. So I looked around for a pre-amp and stop my search at the Navy from Galion. Bought it, received it, connected it, let it warm up an hour or so, then I sat down for listening. I was prepared for an evening of swapping pre-amp all night looking for subtle enhancement... Then came the first note out of the Navy. Short story: I never came back to the old pre-amp. I didn't need to. The enhancement was so obvious. First impression: air, precision, decay, texture, which make the presentation more musical, a lot more musical. With symphony No. 2, of Franz Schubert, from the Canadian National Art Center orchestra, I see the orchestra in from of me. The precision is outstanding. "Don't smoke in bed" from Holly Cole is sweet! I can hear all the subtlety in her voice. Amazing. "Songe" from Vincent Belanger: like I never heard before. Tom Waits, etc... All good. Some albums I had problem with (I didn't like the presentation, too muddy, no soul) now sound amazing. Example Guy Belanger, "Post card from London" recorded at Abbey Road studio. Each instrument has more air around it. I like it.
Anyhow. This is for sure a big improvement to my setup.
I don't plane to roll tube: I like it as is (Psvane). I'll upgrade the tubes once these one reach end of life (2000 to 3000 hours according to Thomas).
Thanks Thomas for the nice discovery. I really like the Navy.

I decide to purchase a set of TS A75 together with TS P75. Just have faith in Thomas through following his YouTube channel. Many of his honest and insight into many reviews really got me thinking. I was a serious audiophile from 90s to early 2000. I have stopped seriously and critically listening to musics for the past 15 years. Now that I’m more settled, I want to enjoy the music like I used to especially like when I was in my teen. So now I considered myself Music lover and “Gadgets lover”.
TS A75 was first hooked up at a substitute for ASR Emitter II Blue Version, I just want to know if it could drive my Avalon Isis. And wow, I don’t expect this kind of fun and musicality. The resolution is nearly there with ASR Emitter II. What surprise me is that TS A75 could easily drive my Avalon Isis with ease. I really enjoy casually listening to music through this amp and (later with the addition of TS P75 which is phenomenal) I love the amp period. I have had and still have many many high end amplifiers in the past. Classe, Audio Research, Atma-sphere, Art Audio, Plinius, Spectral, Innersound, Conrad Johnson, McIntosh, Cayin, Sansui, Accuphase, Odyssey Audio and Jadis. They are all superb. What I’m trying to say is that TS A75 also makes me enjoy the music as many of them do.
So thanks to Thomas once again.

BTW, I also bought Navy Pre Amp. Will put it to listening soon. And TS P75 is very lovely.
Hai

My ears are not yet sensitive enough to make the subtle differences between different cables. I replaced my Oehlbach wires with c300s and I "think" the sound is better but that may be a placebo effect. However, I am certain that the sound is good which is precisely what i was looking for. Perhaps one of the days, I will have the time and motivation to replace C300s with some other cable and discern the sound signature.

Thank you Thomas, for creating such a wonderful sounding preamp,it has brought my listening room back to life. I am experiencing open beautiful vocals and all instruments sound incredible, better detail with drums and cymbals.I previously was using a Sansui 9090 DB for about 30 years.I cannot wait to see what else you create in the future!

The TS120SE is truly amazing. I have had valve amps for years and after changing to the TS120SE with the Shuguang valve option I will never look back. The TS120SE is highly recomended. I have to say something about Thomas and his business ethics. He is totally focused on making sure his customers are happy with the product and goes beyond the call of duty repsonding to emails personally. Thank you Thomas

Wow listening with the A75... precision but never at the expense of musicality,,, this is a golden road at a paupers price...

I have enjoyed this amp greatly for the past few months. In comparison to my DIY ClassD amplifier, I and others agree that this produces the superior experience. I am far from experienced enough to give a comprehensive description, but the sound it makes from acoustic guitars is an obvious enhancement. Voice is slightly better in a way I don’t know how to describe. I like using a separate subwoofer to lift up bass beyond what my (very flat curve) homemade speakers can do, so I cannot speak to the advertised bass enhancement.

The amplifier itself has no difficulty playing loudly. I look forward to testing setup alterations with it to see how it reacts: for now I only use a Topping DAC in front of it. There are many directions I can take to grow.

Of the greatest value, my customer service experience was superb. Thomas was thoughtful, communicative, and helped answer questions/offer support beyond my expectations. I would not hesitate to shop here again.

Criticisms? No, not really. Do be aware that the terminals are red black black red- a little different than I’m accustomed to.

Thanks!

I recently purchased a set of Galion C200 speaker cables. My power hungry Magnepan 12MG QR (the predecessor to the .7s) were previously being connected with a pair of $39 speaker cables I purchased from Amazon. What a difference it made! Even my 10 year old daughter commented on the tighter bass her Taylor Swift album was sounding on the system. I also experienced tighter dynamics and micro details on my jazz records. Overall, money well spent! Oh let me not forget to mention the wonderful packaging it came in as well. With a 14 day trial period it is almost a no brainer to try it out. I did and I'm never looking back!
