The Cat is out of the bag folks. Stellar reviews are beginning to surface. You guys can say we acted quick.
LSA group stands for Larry Staples Audio Group. LSA has a range of loudspeakers and a range of tube hybrid amps that may look familiar. They were the babies from DK Design from Daniel Khasen, and bought out. DK Design amps started making serious waves in the press then hit cult status when Exemplar's John Tucker began performing SERIOUS modifications. What did good ole' Larry do? John Tucker is now LSA's Vice President of Engineering
These are 6922 tube and Mosfet hybrid integrated amplifiers. (Okay using 6922/Mosfet Lamm Hybrids have left serious impressions on us ) that do 150 into 8 and 300 into 4. They have pre-outs and 4 inputs one of which is a MM phonostage
Tube rolling is highly recommended by LSA
So how much for a tweak to taste high grade 6922 preamp, Power house SS dual mono poweramp with massive torroids and a phonostage in one big, solid, macho package? $3,200. NO TYPOS. That's right. Less than P150k.
How about the loudspeakers? Hmmm look familiar don't they? Sound familiar too? You might mistake them for curvacious VSA's (Von Schweikert Audios) and in as far as the LSA1's are concerned you would be exactly right! Albert Von Schweikert designed them for LSA. We promised you a replacement for the VR-1 at the same price. Well, this is as close as it gets.
Rear ambient tweeter on the LSA2 ($2500) . Hmmm.
I have been corresponding with LSA's President Brian Warford and he is a truly a man of music he is even a member of and Assistant Conductor for the Nashville Symphony Choir. (Check out the fantastic CD of NSC's Grammy nominated Missa Solemnis)
These guys are true music lovers and the products are simple and elegant but by all accounts capable of delivering extreme performance at very reasonable prices.
These are products for people that need quality music. These are even more perfect for those that don't want to sacrifice a lot of real estate and do not want to deal with the mess separates create. Most perfect for guys who have wives to appease
This is a teaser. Stay tuned! We have made the first order. Some models like the $8,000 ribbon tweetered LSA2 Statement are not even on the website yet.
