I owned a VSP Labs power amp for a while some time ago. It, along with the rest of my equipment (turntables and speakers excepted) were lifted by burglars. I think mine was the top of the line 180 wpc channel called the "Gold Edition". Ran it with a PS Audio 4.6 and Thiel CS 3.5 speakers. I thought the sound was great. Would I think it to be so today? I really wonder. VSP have been out of business just about the same time I got mine. It was a transconductance amp somewhat like the Trans Nova in design and used MOSFETs as output devices. People talk about MOSFET fog, I have no idea why. The sound was said to rival that of tube amps in liquidity, but I think this was probably advertising hyperbole. You would have to pay very little money in buying it for it to be worth your while, I would think. It does not have the stuff of legends and classics like of the period, as for example, A Classé 25, early Krell, Threshold, ML amp or Arc tube amp. Very little money for a pristine example could serve you well
How good is the VSP labs Trans mos 150
I recently saw a TransMos 150 from VSP Labs. I was informed that these are great sounding amplifiers, actually sought after if one can find one. The owner has one unit in excellent condition. Like it was just out of the box. What is the reputation of this amplifier?
I have an Audio Research LS3& kef 104.2 speakers that I want to match with the TM 150.
