I am really at a loss for words to describe how happy and pleased I am with my Galion TS120 SE tube amp. I am one that feels you have to actually listen to amps, speakers or other hifi equipment before you spend you hard earned money on any equipment. Based on talking and emailing with Thomas and watching and reading a lot of reviews on the amp I bit the bullit and ordered one. I must say the first surprise was when the rather large wooden box showed up on my porch. Best packing job I have ever seen. The second surprise was how easy and uncomplicated the amp set up was. After only 30 minutes the music was singing in my room and I was in awe. The clarity and soundstage were awesome and has only gotten better over time. The TS120 SE drives my Klipsch Forte IV’s, Dynaudio Special 40’s and my vintage ESS speakers with ease. I have learned over the several months of listening to the amp that my preference is class A mode with no tone controls on. Class AB is good but gonna stick with class A. The amp is a keeper and it will never leave my listening room. Thomas I must also tell you that you and your customer service are awesome. I don’t know many companies where I can pick up the phone and call the owner and have a long conversation with and that is greatly appreciated. By the way I also love my Galion speaker cables. Thomas thanks for putting the hard work and time to produce such an awesome tube amp.

This is an OUTSTANDING class a/b power amp, which is diffrent from a great amp at the price point, From a Staunch el34 tube guy of 30 years I'm happy to report that I'm now using SS, If you don't have super hard to drive speakers buy this thing and get off the merry go round of this hobby, to these ears this amp does things I've truly not heard from any SS amp I've audtioned in the last twenty years, most of the ones I audtioned sounded to me like they were "shouting" at me they weren't fully fleshed out, highs were great and bass was thumping but the stitching that held the music together took a backseat to some degree, some were better than others but for the most part they all had that in common, This thing is a different beast altogether, everything is fleshed out, energized if you will, The first track on Buddy Guys "Sweet Tea"lp sounded so good I couldn't stop laughing as in one of those WTF moments, Buddys voice has aged but he still can produce power and man oh man it was down right spooky, u could FEEL him picking that guitar, Next up, Reggae Sounds by Linton Kwesi Johnson, and wow no kidding about the BASS response, the coasters were shaking, my Zu dw6 speakers with the 10inch woofer were smiling, but the bass wasn't overloaded or flabby in any way, zero bass overhang! Two days later after being out of town, I was pumped to get home and spin some records, I was starting to wonder if I maybe overhyped my first listening session and tried to approach this session a bit more practical try to dissect this things character and I failed at that completely, first record played was the Plimsouls "Everywhere at Once" and all that practical jive went out the window, I just started to boogie, this thing has tone for days, I couldn't sit still, That was a late night, and looking at the records I played I was allover the place, just to name a few Circle Jerks, Miles Davis,Diamanda Galas, Peter Tosh, Sun City Girls, Slayer, Sinatra..I was listening to music not records to test a certain frequency, In my opnion many companies similar to Galion are taking the industry by storm, brands like schitt, and Zu come to mind, 20 years ago this kind of performance wasn't avaliable at anywhere near affordable price, I'm happy to say that my current system is pretty much bought direct (Zu,Schitt) but this thing is the crown jewel..the fact that this thing is so affordable is a cause to cheer, If making a connection to your mudic collection is a priority look no further...like I said it's a no brainer!...If I had any quibbles it's the color ( sooo tired of black and silver )and this of course is not Galions fault more of a industry gripe, however it is built like a tank and the finish is very well done, the looks are purposeful and just kinda blends, but when you fire this thing up you'll look twice...If you can live with 75 watts and these are a POWERFUL 75 watts then you have found your amp...I did

best amp i have ever owmed

I bought this to drive my vintage pair of AR3a speakers, a 4 ohm load that drops down to 2 ohms. My 100 watt amp would go into protection mode. The TS A75 does the job with power and finesse.

I was listening to the Galion TS34 and I am so happy with it. Even though it didn’t pass the break-in period, the sound quality is great. Detail, dimensionality, voice, and attack are features that I recognize in this amplifier. I was afraid about low-frequency performance, but it has more than enough torque in the bass, in my opinion.
The sound profile selector and the tone adjustment give a useful tool to improve the sound on those records that don’t have the best quality.
The instructions in the manual to bias and change the mode are very detailed and clear, making it easy to do without any difficulty.
As a tube amplifier, I expected to have a heater on in summer, but I was wrong. The heat dissipated, especially by the tubes, is perfectly manageable. I have a side-open audio deck.
The solid construction of the cabinet is a feature that we don’t see these days.
My conclusion is that the Galion TS34 is an excellent balance between price and quality, with the bonus of an unusual adaptability to satisfy the “test” of most of the audiophiles.

I can hear the improvement in the bass from the very start. And, the C100 speaker cable is a well made product. I have placed an order for another pair.

Amazing sound especially paired with the TS A75 Great Synergy

Paired with the TS Voyager TL Speakers the synergy is awesome.

Going from tube power amp to this amp is a pleasure, especially now that I can hear a well defined, deeper bass through my transmission line speakers.

I haven’t had a lot of time to break in my new TS A75, but already the soundstage is wider! Can’t wait to see how things progress.

Also, the ordering process was easy and I really appreciated the personal update emails from Thomas.

Hi Thomas. I probably have the most humble set up of all owners of the amazing TS A75, but having heard other set ups with far more expensive gear, I'm not shy to tout now that my mid tier gear sounds epic! I only stream music from Qobuz using a Wiim Pro to a Denafrips Ares 12-1. My previous amplifier was a PS Audio Sprout 100 integrated that ignored the internal DAC and the signal was sent out to my Wharfedale Denton 85th Anniversary. All these complemented with a Rel HT1003, not the fanciest but not too shabby. This was already a pretty good set up for the money but I knew I was short on the body and detail. Image precision was very good although the lack of detail had an impact on it. Soundstage was fantastic though. Following your recommendations I let the Galion on for 30 mins and usually let it warm up about 5 mins before playing music. It probably already has over 50 hours of playback and it absolutely sounds fantastic now. The interesting part here is that I was concerned about what pre-amp was going to use that was worth the quality of the Galion, but oh man, I had a great solution in my hands. I consulted with PS Audio technicians and users of the Sprout 100 if they would recommend using it as a pre-amp and all I got from that bunch was good comments about the results of such set up, so I did it, and I probably am, and will be for years, the only crazy using your TS A75 with a PS Audio Sprout 100 as a pre-amp and I LOVE IT!!! The sound now has meat, the bass is powerful, controlled and textured (now I know what this means) while the mids are very present and voices are natural and the highs are clear, detailed and airy without being shouty, sibilant or excessively bright, just perfect. As a result, image precision is much better and the soundstage remains very wide. I understand that the sound I'm getting is the result of the integration of all the elements of this set up, whether it could be improved and how is a mystery at this point, maybe the next step is upgrading the speakers... who knows... right now I'm in heaven and I know for sure that a couple of friends that have invested a lot more are going to be envious of what I've put together without having to sell a kidney. Thank you Thomas! you've really achieved something awesome with this amplifier. PS, I know your preamp TS P75 is coming soon... but I'm not sure I want to put that money in a new preamp instead of speakers... decisions decisions! =) Thanks!

I have a pair of klipsch speakers and forever I have tried to tame down the brightness because they're fatiging, we'll this amp has saved the day, I'm very pleased with the warm sound and detailed music. I love it I may buy another one in the future to biamp them.

I noticed an immediate Improvement in the bass response and in soundstaging. I actually had to turn my Rel t9x down a notch. Great amp for the money.

Cables and cords came in and out my audio shed in the past 20+ years but seldom they "Wowed" me. But the moment when I plugged the P-200 to my preamp my bookie transform into a floor stander, the sound stage was extended to both side walls with great depth far beyond the back wall, tons of information is in between the speakers, it was so vivid and life like...made me wonder what potion Thomas had put in his cable made it sound so good with such a small price? Any short comings? Yes, if I could have a little more density in the vocal then it will be perfect, because the midrange of my speaker is soft. Thomas said the P-400 is a little sharper in comparison maybe it helps. Alright I ordered one! I am really craving some meat on the bone. On the day I received this cable I gave up all my appointment, thank God my expectation came true! That little sharpness is magical, the "Wow" factor kick in, that was the moment when I put the P-200 on the preamp and the P-400 on the DAC. Now I am busy trying to replay my CD collection one after the other... but at the same time I raised another question, should I order a second P-400 to replace my $1200 power cable from NBS which servings my Poweramp?🤨🤔😖

Yesterday afternoon, my favorite UPS driver pulled up and she had a dolly with a large box on it. I had to stop I think for a moment. I didn't order anything recently and then it dawned on me, It's my TS34 being delivered. Later that evening I unpacked it put the tubes in configured the speakers (bipoled Klipsch Forte IV) and took it out of standby then let it warm up for a good while before I started to stream.

For some reason, Spotify had defaulted to a jazz channel and I'm not a big jazz fan, but the sound produced by the TS34 was phenomenal with jazz. I swear I could even hear the springs on the bottom of the snare drum. Needless to say I'll be listening to more jazz. I also noticed an increased size of my sound stage. The next few days are going to be spent tweaking the speaker position and discovering my favorite listening preferences with the TS34 as it is breaking- in.

This is my first tube amplifier, and I spent quite a long time investigating different brands and their requirements. I definitely wanted a self biasing amplifier. I didn't want to search for a screwdriver every time I changed from class a to ab. Besides the convenience of being self biasing, and as I said the increased sound stage the big surprise was the richness in sound reproduction from the TS34. My Forte IV's, (depending on the recording), can after a short time, create listening, fatigue, and to be quite frank, make my ears want to bleed, but I found that the TS34 tamed the Klipsch.

Thomas, thank you for developing the TS34 and bringing it to the market.
