Never heard the Lite, and only heard the GS-1 briefly under poor conditions (noisy background). It sounded wonderful. From what I read it sounds like the A100 shares a similar sound sig with the GS-1. Both seem to have that "wire with gain" type of sound. Beyond that I couldn't say.

Just want to add a couple points I've noticed on the build quality of my A100 I've just received. The amp is still burning in, so I won't comment on the sound quality yet. The VU meters on my unit were canted upon delivery. Although this is an easy fix, it does require cracking the lid open to straighten them out. I also observed that they are wired incorrectly with respect to the left and right channels. A signal input that is solely coming through the left channel will make the right side VU meter dance. This is probably also a quick wire swap, but it does indicate a lack of attention to detail.

Some may think these are pointless quibbles. Call me er, particular. It bothered me to the point of having to fix it!  Otherwise, the amp seem fairly well constructed.
