I waited to write this review, as I was struggling with noisy electric in my old house. I have both the Galion amp and pre-amp. Now that everything’s burned in and my electric problems are fixed (dedicated line, Furman IT 20i) I can say that I love the sound of the Galion combo. With the Eversolo DMP A6, Paradigm 75Fs, silver Kimble interconnects and speaker wire, I have been listening to my stereo almost all day long, every day. I can’t believe the openness, clarity, taut bass, fun punchiness without fatigue. I mention the equipment because it all comes together perfectly, including the power conditioner. The Galions cleaned up the sound and I could hear each improvement as I made it. I was going to replace my speakers, but I don’t want to spoil the perfection! 😍

This amp is absolutely mind blowing! Everything about it is so awesome! The bass and dynamics are amazing paired with its hint of warmth to really give you that amazing coherent sound.

I hesitated writing this review because my system is bi-amped and I only use the A75 for the mids and highs. However the results are so good that I feel compelled to write a review, just understand that there will be no mention of bass performance.

The system is not your usual hifi system. The speakers are high-end DIY and the electronics are a Roon Nucleus end point, the MiniDSP SHD, the A75 and a high power (450 watts per channel) Class D amp. The speakers use a compression horn, a 10" mid/woofer and dual 15" woofers per side. This is an open baffle design.

The system has been up and running for a little over 6 months. Being an audiophile, I've thought of next steps, but have come to the realization that there is no upgrade path for this system. The resolution is tremendous; all you hear is the recording. If the recording is bright, you hear it. You know where the mic(s) are placed. The soundstage depth, width and height varies with the recording. The center channel image is strong and placing instruments and singers within the soundstage is easy to hear and locate. Sometimes you can even hear an artist breathing hard as he/she plays. All the details are there.

And that is the double-edged sword of resolution. This system, of which the A75 is a big part, simply soars with good recordings. I could not ask for more. However...on lesser recordings, all the flaws are laid to bare. Not harshly, but they are there. This system will not hide flaws. As a result, I mostly listen to well or very well recorded music on this system.

My wife, who is not an audiophile, on occasion, will ask to listen to a song she likes on my system. The first time, she was asking why certain instruments just cut out abruptly. I explained that this is the way the song was mixed and the engineer never thought anyone would hear it. The second time, the recording was so bad neither of us could stand it. She said the song sounded better on her iPad. She played it for me on her iPad and she was right. You could rock to the music with all the flaws in the recording well hidden.

The A75 is a surprisingly high-end component for its price and I doubt that it would hold back any high resolution system. The highs are well extended and not harsh and the midrange is deep and rich. But it will not hide flaws in the recording or the choices that an engineer makes such as having a jazz ensemble with the instruments separately mic'd and the bass player who was on the left is now center stage because his solo has come up and the engineer switched to his mic, collapsing the soundstage.

We all have music that we love that is just not well recorded. You will find yourself listening to that music with a lower resolution system that does not capture the flaws in the recording. The A75 is a worthy addition to a high resolution system. But it can be a reminder that sometimes you just don't want a system this good.

I am listening to the A75 as I type my comments here.
Yosi Horikawa - Vapor on Cd. It is an exquisite album of lush soundscapes that is presented so well. The ringing bells, atmospherics and especially the string bass on cut 14 - ‘Stars’ is incredibly realistic. Boris Blank’s Resonance and Yello’s Stella truly reach air as well.
But!!!! That was after the break-in. My initial impression was - how much is it going to cost to ship it back! The sound image was so forward and in my face that it was almost uncomfortable. I have been listening to a Marantz Cinema 40 on my Polk R700 towers and they never sounded ANYTHING LIKE THIS! You get my drift.
So I waited. and listened. and changed speakers and cd players and cables and preamps and at or about 108-110 hours the first relaxation of the sound happened before my very ears. Like the starship Enterprise popping silently onto your tv screen after warp. Just, there. The bubble expanded and I physically felt the change. The next was on day eight. That is when the BASS decided to show up to the party. No more distant friend; but an intimate and close encounter thump through the oak floor. Still maintaining that tightness. The amplifier has been reviewed to the gills so if you don’t know what this Canadian is packing you should know it is palpable and powerful. I am spinning with a Pioneer 1999 6-disc (warm, fuzzy) cd /skw copper ofc rca’s and a Shanling Et3 Cd transport/Audioquest Vodka optical cable to Shanling SM1.3 streamer/Mogami platinum XLR’s to Vincent Audio SA-32/XLR to TS A75. I am very happy with this purchase. The sound of my A75 continues to evolve and for the speakers that like deep current (with zero ripple) this is a great pairing. I also have several tube amplifiers and I enjoy having the contrast of this amplifier. I rebuilt 1989 and 1997 Cerwin Vega speakers (Miflex KPAL’s, ClarityCaps -red, Mundorf ZN, Pure 999 silver wire) and the A75 amp pushes them to block rocker status. I would recommend this amplifer to anyone with a taste for Fostex drivers. The sound signature to me is similar to my TH900 mk2 headphones but even more V-shaped and forward. Again. I followed Thomas’ advice on the break-in period and he was spot on with the time factor. These are big caps and lots of them. They will get better with age.
Thanks for a great unit.

I took delivery of the Galion TS A75 yesterday, and after a long listening session, I can confidently say I’m extremely satisfied with the purchase. This unit replaces my much-loved Krell KAV-300i integrated amplifier, which has served me faithfully for the past 25 years. The Krell was a powerhouse—dynamic, rich through the mid-range, and remarkably punchy for its price point. I tested many amplifiers at the time, some more expensive, others more affordable, but none matched the Krell's drive and presence.

However, as with all electronics, time took its toll. Left on nearly every day since purchase, it ran hot and eventually developed some noise in the right channel due to ageing capacitors. I considered a rebuild but, once I factored in the cost, it no longer made sense given the quality of modern alternatives.

A high-end McIntosh was recommended to me, but I couldn’t justify spending over $AUD10,000. I came very close to purchasing the Cambridge Audio CXA81 MKII after reading some strong reviews. But then I came across the Galion TS A75—an amplifier I hadn’t heard of but which immediately caught my attention.

What drew me in was its design philosophy. As someone who prefers solid-state to tubes, I appreciated the Galion’s engineering—particularly the inclusion of large toroidal transformers and a total capacitance of 200,000µF. These specs spoke volumes to me. Further reading confirmed what I was hoping for: reviewers praised its sweet midrange, tight bass, a touch of warmth, and excellent transparency.

Ordering the Galion was a leap of faith. It's designed in Canada but manufactured in China, and returning such a heavy unit internationally would have been challenging. That said, I was reassured by the build quality described in other reviews and decided to take the plunge.

I'm glad I did.

From the moment I unpacked it and started listening across a range of genres, the Galion impressed me. The soundstage is expansive and immersive. The mid-range is smooth and sweet—just as promised—and the detail retrieval is outstanding without ever becoming harsh or fatiguing. Bass is well controlled, and there’s a warmth that makes long listening sessions enjoyable rather than clinical.

If I were to offer one critique, it would be that the initial punch doesn't quite match the 150 watts of the old Krell—it’s slightly less immediate in that regard. However, the Galion more than makes up for it with its finesse, clarity, and musicality. It’s simply a joy to listen to.

Over the years, I’ve auditioned many amplifiers—some ultra-linear and reference-grade units that are technically impressive but end up sounding sterile or overly analytical. What I wanted was an amplifier that made music enjoyable" to listen to. The Galion TS A75 does exactly that, and at a price that’s frankly remarkable for what it offers. If another brand were selling this, I suspect it would be listed for at least double.

In summary: if you're looking for an amplifier that offers outstanding value, wonderful musicality, and serious engineering under the hood, the Galion TS A75 is an easy recommendation.
