TS120 Special Edition Amplifier

The entire process was easy, ordering, shipping and setup. The amp came double boxed, well isolated with foam. I’m very impressed with the quality of materials and workmanship, a beautiful, solid piece of equipment. When I hooked everything up, put on the first record, everything worked perfectly, instant music, no fuss. The amp is powering Klipsch Heresy speakers, they sound great now, I’m excited to hear what they sound like after break-in. I love having the option for a little tone control. I’m now working on speaker positioning to get the best bass and sound stage possible as the diodes are breaking in. Having never seen this amp or anything from Galion, It’s fantastic to receive equipment much better than anticipated. Kudos to Thomas Tan and all the folks at Galion.

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.

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

This is my first huge step into HiFi audio. I am so pleased I started right here, with Galion and its founder, Mr. Tan. In wanting to have an idea what to write about, I have put approximately 50 hours on this amp. With knowing the amp has a break-in period of 300 hours, it’s hard to imagine better sound coming from the unit! The soundstage is huge, gigantic, full, rich, and a few other adjectives I can think of. This is a retirement gift to myself and I’m pleased as punch with it.

I had a friend over for a listen session. Halfway through a Quiex pressing of Brothers In Arms, my friend looked at me and asked where all the sound was coming from. Actually, he almost yelled it, the TS120SE is loud! I was perplexed, an adult man asking such a thing. I pointed at the speakers in disbelief and smiled because he was truly asking how a wall of sound could come from 2 speakers. He had never heard a wide soundstage with instruments separated in such a way.

Carl Orf’s Carmina Burana/ O Fortuna has never sounded so great, strings and vocals, are just fantastic from the TS120SE, the bass thumps quite well and is never bloated! Metallica on Megaforce label sounds excellent and the label is a known weak pressing. Yes, classical, classic rock, metal, punk, and even Taylor Swift are played here. Lol. Gershwin,to Genesis, Mozart or Metallica, BeeGees and Beethoven, they all sound so darn good through this amp. My record collection is extensive and full of minty 1st pressings along with MoFi, Quiex, Classic Records, and other audiophile pressings and the TS120SE squeezes all the sound out of them. I’m glad Thomas has created the TS120SE to allow me to enjoy this collection to its fullest extent.

To say I’m a satisfied customer is very understated!
That brings be to my title question, what the heck took so long…..to create something sooooo good, for such an affordable price.

Thank you, Thomas!

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.
