How long does Class A have?
@phd  +1The question the sheeple never ask is "WHOSE SCIENCE? They would rather trust the fake news than question it and do some researchThe truth is out there 
Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200)
Last night I played my absolute worst torture test cd Wilson Philips Greatest Hits, and for the first time I was able to listen without earsplitting pain, but the music IMHO SUCKS. I ordered 5 more sets of the iso devices

FYI, I replaced 2 sets of springs with the devices I provided the link to a few replies belowThey really work, and are stable unlike the springs. I'll be buying more for my XOs, Oppo 105 and speakershth  
What preamp with your GaN power amp?
BudgetI find the Voyager very holographic, which IMO means one doesn't need a tube preamp. I am using an Audio Alchemy DDP-1 + PS 5 and loving it, though I am sure there are better preamps, but at what price? I recently saw a DDP-1 +PS 5 on AG ads...

Last night I listened to Jackson Brown Solos Acoustics Vol 1 and Janis Ian Breaking Silence Both have been played hundreds of times, with Janis having been played on lots of different systems over the decades. I also saw her live in a tiny Musicia... 
What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report

@viber6 As you know, I have enjoyed my EVS 1200 for 2 years, giving it tons of praises. Every song I have played through the Voyager was played many times through the 1200. There is no reason to go backwards. The Voyager/GaN technology at least h... 
How long does Class A have?
Im no climate change advocate, but electricity is getting more expensive, not less. I ve owned class A heaters, and 250w tube heaters, so there’s the added cost to cool the room.I have been in possession of a LSA Voyager GaN amp 350/600 wpc. My pr...

And it’s not JUST audio tweaks, as getting my roof siliconed proved to be very beneficial.  More though, speaker XOs are typically done by ear in a specific room, to a specific amplifier, or taste. My Emerald Physics 3.4s (12" concentric drivers w...

@viber6 Perhaps you've overlooked this... I remind anyone interested in this amp to read the Absolute Sounds Technics review in Jul 2021 issue. As I read it the other day, he nailed everything Im hearing, which should help you decipher my scribb...

Last night I listened to Alison Krauss + Union Station New Favorite. Listened to it at least 50-100 times. It was always entertaining, but I simply wasn't prepared for how everything sounded so clear, so focused and natural. Not even thinking abou...

"Blows away" in this case means the sound stage is bigger, wider, deeper , significantly more life-like (micro-details are much more evident) than the amp I had such high praises for, but compared to what? Certainly not to the Voyager, which, BTW ...

I neglected to mention "power". My last 4 Class D amps were: Emerald Physics 100.2SEs (100wpc?), Audio Alchemy DPA 1 (125/200), PS Audio M700s (350/700) < none of these adequately coupled to my room; ~26 x 35 x 12, lots of glass and terr...

@grannyring I know what you mean, I meant by comparison using the same PC, iso devices (Machina Dynamica Springs) and WW XLRs

In further assessing my stock Voyager, I finally got around to classical. First up was Yellowstone by Chip Davis. I have a connection to this as I visited Yellowstone and hiked around. On one hike along close by a river a small herd of Buffalo...
