GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager?

Peachtree 400 and LSA Voyager GaN amps: Does anyone have direct experience with both of these amps? Can you comment on any differences that might exist in sound? I know the internals are supposed to be the same but even if that is true implementation can make a difference. Both are highly regarded by those who own them.

Might also be helpful if you listed the rest of your system (Pre and speakers).

My current system is: Bricasti M3 DAC; Rogue RP-7 (NOS) pre; Bel Canto Ref600M amps; Fyne F1-8 speakers.

Thanks in advance!

 I haven’t read this anywhere about the M225s, so I’m wondering, some  amps seem to need an hour of warm up time to sound their best….is that what you found with the M225s?

Probably true, but I can't confirm. I leave my amps on all the time and did that with the 225M. I will say that the 225M are very efficient... no idea how they accomplished that, but even under a heavy load they barely get warm. The Voyager never gets hot but it gets warmer than the 225M.

That review about LSA GAN is bad...I'd stay:away:

Really? And what review would that be? If you are addressing me, I already own one and love it.

If you don't have personal experience then keep 3rd party comments to yourself, or at least link to them. I have had one for 1.5 years+ and LOVE it. The more upgrades to cabling and transport I have done since owning it, the better it gets
