  Our new LSA VT-70 is an amazing value. It is our first tube amp.
See the new Stereophile review where it was Class B rated.
They summed with:

"As long as you couple it with reasonably efficient speakers, it can hold its own against upmarket competitors costing several times as much. Affordable, delectable, and just about unflappable, this LSA VT70 is a tonic in inflation-blighted time."

In the new Headphone.guru review they say:
"Furthermore, with its epic soundstage, laser-sharp imaging, deep bass, and linear timbre, along with its incredible musicality regardless of musical choice, the VT-70 is one of the better headphone amplifiers that I have listened to, competing with offerings from other manufacturers at two to three times the price. And that doesn’t even take into consideration its ability to drive Loudspeakers, which will be covered in the other half of this review over at HiFiAudio.Guru. If I needed to go out today and purchase a new reference amplifier for headphones, the VT-70 would very likely be my first choice."

In the Part Time Audiophile review they say:
It was hard to avoid the words “for the money” with the LSA VT-70 integrated amplifier review—when you listen to it, you’ll constantly use cliches such as “
punches above its weight” and “giant killer.” I had to get past that because the VT-70 just is. There’s a logic and reason behind its excellence, and it’s not completely tied into its price.


It has the warmth, the clarity through the midrange and the linearity I need from an EL-34, and it asks for so little in return. Once again, this is one of those products that I wish they had when I was a journeyman audiophile curious about getting into tubes for the first time. If that sounds like you, take a chance on the VT-70. I can’t think of a better centerpiece for an under-$5,000 system.

In the summation of the 2 part review on the speaker amp side of the VT-70 Hifiaudio.guru summed with:
"For the time being, the VT-70 will remain as my reference amplifier for all speaker tests not to mention personal listening. I cannot recommend this amplifier enough, dynamic, balanced, and musical with a huge three-dimensional soundstage and precision imaging at what is for a tube amp, pennies. Add on top of that a reference-quality headphone amplifier and it is the perfect solution for the budget audiophile."

Here is a user quote:

Walter, Just want you to know that this amp is fantastic!  I have it hooked up to a $6k pair of Esoteric MG-10 bookshelves and it sounds incredible.  I am an experienced Audiophile and I think your amp, for the cost, embarrasses better known, more expensive tube integrated's costing 3x as much."

Thank you,  Jim C. 

 
The VT-70 is a 35wpc remote controlled integrated EL-34 based integrated amplifier. It has 3 inputs, a headphone amp and a subwoofer output. The damped meters work for both biasing as well as power output. It uses modern era production techniques with a balance of boards and point to point wiring. It includes an elegantly crafted, piano black, tube cage.

This 46 pound amp is PrimaLuna's worst nightmare

They sum with: "The LSA VT70 is the perfect amp at the perfect price, whether investigating high - performance audio for the first time, taking your first spin with a tube amplifier, or perhaps looking for a great second system. It’s musically satisfying, aesthetically pleasing, and gets the job done."
Highly recommended.  #toneaudioapproved

Here is another user quote:

"Thanks again Walter. This amp is incredible. Totally blows the Willsenton R8 out of the water just in sheer dynamics, punch, musicality and huge soundstage. I know because I owned one.. Key word.. owned.. This is fresh out of the box. Just hooked it up this morning. My jaw dropped.. This has a true hi-end sound that I've never experienced with any other tube amp before and I've had quite a few.. Or any amp for that matter.. Thanks so much for bringing this amp to the table for such an outstanding price."
