LSA Voyager GAN Amplifier

Just got mine last week.  After 24 hours of play all I can say is that this is not your father's class D amplifier.  There is not one thing about its sound that reminds me of the class D gremlins that I do not like.  The low end filled in and now has deep impact, the midrange is the love child of a beautiful tube and clean hybrid amp - just gorgeous.  Highs are very clean and extended. Spatial cues are top notch. My system has had some damn good tube and solid state amps in it before and it has never sounded this good.  I am blown away with the quality of sound coming from class D amplification at this price point.

This 300 wpc amplifier is a real winner.....

yyz,
Amp transparency is like cleaning your metal kitchen utensils.  No matter how well you clean them, they are not nearly as clear as mirrors.  Your eyeglasses never are as clear as removing your glasses, assuming you have 20/20 vision and don't need glasses.  You can sand wood with fine sandpaper, and it is reasonably smooth, but nothing like a child's skin.  Micro or atomic level?  I don't know.

Nothing else matters to me that can compensate for lack of SOTA clarity and transparency.

chorus,
What are your reference amps, and how does the Voyager (stock?) compare?

cascadesphil,
That's generous of you to try to make videos comparing the modded Voyager to your EVS 1200.  Meanwhile, you must have heard the two amps by now, and maybe you can make a preliminary report.  Take your time before making the video.

cascadesphil,
On this weekend, maybe you will have a chance to tell us how the Voyager compares to the EVS 1200.
