Elegant design, well constructed, easy to assemble, what more could you ask for !

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.

My TS P75 sounds fantastic better sound stage, more airy sound, more detail, I been using the Threshold T2 Preamp (and my TS P75) sound much better for the $$$ you can not go wrong,
My Power Amplifier is a McIntosh 225 sound great whit the TS P75 I’m very Happy 😊

Very smooth sounding while being airy and 3 dimensional with a good recording. Well worth the money.

The Galion amplifier is detailed, involving, and it is a steal for its asking price. I’ve spent the better part of the last decade listening solely to tube equipment in my main system. I still like tube gear, but this amplifier excels in detail retrieval while drawing you into the music for a pleasurable listening experience. It doesn’t sound quite as rounded and full bodied as tube gear but it provides better detail and grip in the lower frequencies. It used to be that low cost solid state gear would have some sonic shortcomings that would prevent long term enjoyment. I can’t find any sonic shortcomings with this wonderful amp in any regard. It plays with more control and grip than its modest specs would suggest. Overall, it provides a pleasurable listening experience with all genres of music with no noticeable faults. Is it the giant killer some say it is? It might well be, as I have not listened to everything out there. But to my ears, this amp sings. I’m very impressed with it!!

I’ve been chasing great sound since 1978, when I got my very first stereo. Over the decades, I’ve listened to countless amplifiers whether solid state or hybrids, always looking for that one piece of gear that could truly bring my music to life. With the Galion TS34, I’ve finally found it.

The TS34 gave me everything I’ve ever wanted from my music listening sessions: clarity, warmth, emotional engagement, and a sense of presence that feels truly alive. Whether I’m playing records or streaming, the TS34 pulls me in. It doesn’t just play music - it lets me feel it: I have a live performance in my room, every time. The soundstage is expansive, the midrange rich and nuanced, and the highs are detailed without ever being harsh. It’s as if the TS34 understands what music is supposed to sound like.

Equally impressive is the experience of working with Thomas, the founder of Galion. His passion for audio and dedication to his customers are unmatched. He was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and generous with his time. Every question I had - whether technical or philosophical - was met with prompt, helpful feedback. It’s rare these days to find that kind of personal connection in a company.

After nearly five decades of listening, experimenting, and upgrading, I can say with confidence: the TS34 is the closest I’ve ever come to my ideal sound. It’s a revelation.

I have had the TS P75 preamp for about a week. The sound of my system has improved substantially. A lot more of the songs go from decent to great. I noticed the most change though in the subtle details such as the decaying sound of a cymbal sounding more real. The same goes for drums, piano, or the sound of a guitar pick sliding along a string. I went back to my old setup and picked Bob Dylan's Sarah. The new setup with the TS P75 sounds more real.

My current higher end DAC has a built in analog preamp that I have heard cannot be removed. I discovered that contrary to what is usually recommended, the sound quality went up substantially if I increased the preamp volume and decreased the volume to listening levels in the software. I am moving to a class D amp with 10 times the power and realized that my volume adjustments would become more extreme. I have also heard that tube pre-amps are typically best for class D amps.

So, I took the chance with the TS P75. I turned up the preamp in my DAC to the volume that is supposed to eliminate the gain and act as much like a strait wire as I could obtain; I was worried that that built-in preamp still in the signal path it would destroy the benefits of the TS P75. I turned the software volume up to 100%. Now, I have great sound and I can control the volume just with my remote; the sound is much better than what I could accomplish with the volume tweaks. The remote is also heavy and machined out a solid piece of aluminum, so it can serve a secondary role as a personal protection device.

I purchased the P75 with the A75 after seeing multiple YouTubers reviewing them, and I'm very happy with the sound of my new equipment! I've never owned $5k equipment, so I can't speak to the "punching up" aspect of the Galions, with which the Tubers were obsessed. This is solid equipment with great sound, and with the added ability to tune the sound by rolling tubes, all for ~$3,300 for both the pre-amp and amp. This is affordable audiophile hifi, and brought life back to my speakers (Paradigm 75Fs) without hurting my ears. The bass is tight and fully present and changes with different tubes (I tried the Mullard 12AT7s), and the voice is front and center, with a beautiful timbre. The sound stage is vey deep, and I'm hearing things like a bow being pulled across the strings of a bass violin in ways I haven't heard before; hearing Tom Waits keeping time by tapping his foot on Ol' 55. NOTE: Don't be afraid to move your speakers and change toe-in to find the sweet spot. Kudos and thanks to Thomas for achieving the goal of affordable audiophile sound!

The TS-A75 is presently the mainstay poweramp of my 2.1 channel setup #1 of 3. It has wonderful drive, speed, clarity, imaging, depth, upper range sweetness, and lower end grunt. It also pairs very well with various DAC, preamp and speaker combinations.

I presently use Qobuz Connect to stream from my PC - either via isolated USB into a re-clocker outputting AES/EBU, or via HQ Player and my LAN. Over the last year, I've switched between a wide variety of DACs including a Prism Sound Titan, various SMSL/Topping/FiiO offerings (DO100 Pro, DO200 Pro, D300EX, DO400, E70 Velvet, SU-9 Ultra, SU-10, DX7 Pro+, K7, K11 R2R, etc.), xDuoo TA-22, Audalytic AH90, Gustard A26, Gustard R26, and Gustard X30. I've also switched between various preamps including Schiit Mjolnir 3, Ladder Chopin, Modwright LS 100, SMSL HO200, xDuoo TA-20 Plus and TA-66, Topping PRE90 and A90 Discrete, and no preamp at all. My most recent speaker change was from Klipsch RP600MII bookshelf speakers to Wharfedale Super Lintons.

Various combinations of the above pieces, with the TS-A75 as the constant, were all superb in their own way. There wasn't a bad sound to be had with any combination I tried. Further system tuning at this point is simply for personal preference and experimentation, but there's no plan at present to swap out the TS-A75. As an added bonus, the TS-A75 also runs cool. Great job, Thomas!

First, I just want to echo Bill McF's review and his assessment. I too have a TS A75. I've have now let my TS P75 play for 30 hours as Thomas suggested, and the sound is waaay better than expected. I have by speakers located on the same wall as my bedroom door where my stereo is located. I was watching TV in my living room letting my stereo run (first seven hours) when I walked in my bedroom for a second to grab something. I just opened the door, and I stopped dead in my tracks. The projection of the sound was at least three feet farther into the room than I ever heard at the normal low volume I have my stereo playing when I burn in new equipment. I trust Thomas and Loic that this preamp will pair well with a variety of amps, but I can only give my endorsement with the TS A75. It truly is a match made in heaven. The combo sounds much better than some of my friends' gear that is close to double the price. If your DAC is lean sounding ( I have a Eversolo DMP-A6 master edition) don't worry, the very subtle warmth and soundstage of the A75/P75 pairing compliments the clinical nature of many delta sigma DACs. You get the best of both worlds. I was thinking about buying new speakers, but probably not now. I have reached audio nirvana already.

Just received my TS P75 yesterday and have been busy testing out its performance. This is the 3rd unit from Galion - started with the Voyage TL speakers, bought the TS A75 and snapped up the TS P75 as soon as it was launched. Thomas, if you decide to produce a DAC or floor standing speakers count me in!!

Not much more to add to what Thomas has been expressing in his video - 3D soundstage, Bass, Mid-range are all as promised. It really brings out the best from the TS A75, and the tubes really work their magic...

I received this 5 days ago to. pair with my TS A75 . I am a every day golfer but since this TS P75 arrived I have not left the house This combo has me under house arrest ! True story , but seriously this is as advertised. Now I can just listen to and enjoy the music and not thinking about upgrades anymore. Thankyou Thomas for what you do !

I reached out to Thomas after I heard about the TS Voyager MkII SE speakers only to find out that he was no longer producing them, as it was a passion project and as such he could not afford to continue to produce them at the price point for which they were being sold. I was heart broken. I then asked about the overall numbers produced and he gave me some ridiculous small number. So the likelihood that I would find a pair on the used market would be slim to none. Then my next play was to ask him if he would share the crossover design with me so that I could try to make a pair for a donor set of XSA-Vanguards. He declined, but said that he probably had a pair of crossovers in storage that he would sell me. Sold! He shipped them out to me and they are beautiful crossovers. The materials and workmanship are the best that I've seen. That's not saying a whole lot, as I haven't seen a "lot" of crossovers, but they are awesome looking crossovers.

I did find a donor set of XSA Vanguards, but now that I have them I have held off installing them in the Vanguards. There are two reasons for that. One, the Vanguards sound very nice and I think I want to hold onto them in their current configuration for a while. Two, the donor set is in dark brown. I really want a pair in bamboo if I can find a set at the right price. I've seen some, but the price hasn't been right. At the moment I'm in no rush and I'm satisfied in knowing that I have the Voyager MkII SE crossovers available whenever I'm ready to use them. Thank you, Thomas.
