In my experience Psvane KT88 tubes can sound fantastic but are unreliable.

I installed a full set of Cryotone tubes in my TS-120. It is a major upgrade. Totally silent, dynamic, tight. I suspect people would give up on tube rolling if they installed Cryotone tubes. They are just awesome.

What’s the best speakers for this?

All amplifiers should have integral graphic equalisers thatb can be switched out to direct . How pedantic of audiophiles to dictate to listeners what they should be hearing !

The lights aren't on.

Tone control is factual nothing else then another volume control variation, so in my opinion adjusting treble should never produce lesser detailed sound, on my amp it certainly does not and using tone control is essential more about taste then the level of quality. Could not live without it.

Horrible demo for some self-proclaimed audio guys.

Thomas is the galion TS120 Special Edition a good match for my dynaudio heretage special?

Did Mr. Wilson want to trade his system for your Gillian amp? Please do a follow-up video and let us know. Thanks you sir

Speaking of tone control buddy , this thing looks busy with all the lines ,buttons , nobes, and lettering and lights. To much going on with this amp. Tone it down on looks. Good luck pushing your amp, sir .

I still wonder why this person does this.. The amp mmmmmmmmm...mmmmmmm????

Tone controls are only good for crappy recording...

87 db on the A400’s. Is this really what the TS 120 SE made for?

I am a “FAN” of audiophile research. As a fan, I have enjoyed learning. The learning is the fun. The incalculable computations of component pairing. I very much enjoyed this. Thanks

HI guys, can someone help me what amplifier should I buy to this speakers (I just bought them).

I own alot of these tubes and yeah Thomas I agree 85 percent ' kt120 to me have a warm tone and Golden lion hard to beat in clarity city ' but Tad can get very techtile in a good way ' and stock P.s.vane classic imho is a very good tube for a wide range of speakers thanks Thomas

That’s some nice amp by Doge 👍 oh, wait….

It all depends on the recording!

thanks for those super clear explanations ! 🙂

Was it the demo track but sounded very much upper low bass … can’t really hear low ends…

Made in China zhu Jiang?

It has to be Mundorf silver in oil 😊

Those Clarity Cap CMR's are absolutely AMAZING. Well done!!!

Class A plays better for me.

How long can these custom made caps last? My concern would be losing a cap and not being able to replace ???

Do you still have those speakers ?

Love it when they play proper music!

There is a video on youtube of a man breaking the cheap psvane kt88 and the most expensive (Tii), and its the same tube. They just colored the glass of the Tii, so you could not see the inside.. There is so much bullshit in the industry...

Whats the song called guys? Need to test my set ups lol

Give me a proper warranty other than 1 year and I’m in, otherwise it’s too much of a risk.

Hey Thomas , How does it work with Focal Kanta2 ?

I find this so funny !!!!

Do you actually believe that electrons moving in one tube is different from other electrons in another tube? Maybe they go faster in one typer of tube. Maybe they add some other stuff into a tube that colours the electrons green, blue or another colour. I know tubes wear out, so maybe just make sure you have a new set of tubes with every listening session.

Everyone is oozing MONEY $ .You have good intentions .But 70% of us cannot put the volume up in our ''apartments'' more than 7 o'clock ...Thank You Those who have houses are VERY FORTUNATE ...

Thomas: 1st of all, hats off to a great accomplishment. I'm ready to buy. But I don't know which version, standard or SE, will best complement my speakers, either Klipsch Cornwall IV or Klipsch Forte IV. Also which tubes? Thank you. Oh, with no phono input, can I connect a phono stage to any of the numbered line inputs?

You are a genius 😁

Yes!

A great amp indeed, but Thomas, would it be a good partner for elektrostatic speakers? Any experiences?

How did he have less bass with the 601’s vs the 8000? Everything I hear about monoblocks and bass control is much better than Intergrated

It is great to see someone take a really good integrated amplifier and spend the time and money take it to the point where it could be a great amplifier. I own a Doge 10 mk 3 and was having an issue I thought might be terminal and contacted Thomas as I was having issues with Doge customer service, or lack thereof. Instead of trying to push his product, he walked me through an easy fix for my problem. That is what you call customer service, even for a non-customer! My next amplifier will be a Galion TS120 SE as it looks like a significant improvement over my Doge (which I really like), and I know the CS will be excellent. Thanks again Thomas

I have wanted this since you announced it. I am saving my penny's.

Class A for the win.

Hi Thomas, love your channel and great work bringing an amp to market. A potential addition for future revisions would be to allow it to accept EL34 tubes. These are more romantic than the KT88 and would offer a warmer and possibly more engaging sound that might appeal to some users (like me). Depending on the exact circuit you're using, this could be incredibly simple to incorporate. Just a thought.

Very good

Bass quality with tube amplifiers is NO secret ...........max bass and lowest distortion when the tubes have currents within minimal difference in mA bias.....

Do you have any plans to add a balance knob to the TS120? Or is there a reason why not? Thanks

"Tube rolling" fancy word for changing tubes

What is the title of this song that is playing

can i be mr tubes? i'm a local tube guru mainly deal with guitar amps but did some work on home stereos and studios. all this hard work and you compromise on modern tubes? this amp deserves better. if you let me be mr tubes ide recommend for the galion ts 120 se: vintage brimars if you can get them for a special combination of british warmth and liveliness, old mullards will be smoother ,ge's are nice and clear with huge lows with definition neutral mids and crispy highs. rca's and amperex are amazing as well. if you can't find or afford the holy grails mentioned above than matsushita and tungsram are very nice sounding sleeper nos tubes with complex midrange for less money. we are at the bottom of the barrel regarding nos so getem while you can.

i have the mk 2 se plan to pair them with an old arcam power amp and a rogue rp 1 tube preamp. i think that longplate mullard or brimar preamp tubes will be great with these speakers.
