  1. Thanks Tim, you're a good man to be on the look-out for Emotiva gear.  I know you've been using their products for quite a while.  I started with a little Mini-X to use as an auxiliary 

    amp in a different room from my main system.  I was impressed as it worked out well.  Next was a UPA-2 and it has done well also.  Still looking for a second UP-2.  Thanks for looking.

    Have a great 4th of July everyone!   d.

  2. So, I have a pre amp that has two pre outs.  As I am using it now, one pre out goes directly to an amp and then on to the speakers.  No surprises there.  But..., I would like to use the pre amp in the way I just described, and at the  same time,  use the second pre out to send a separate but identical signal to another pre amp.  This signal would then be amplified and sent to speakers in a different room.  I have never done this so I'm asking if there will be any problems I am not aware of.  Thanks for your opinions.  d.    

  3. ^^^^^^^^^

    I agree with Deang.  Over the years I've had several La Scala's, pro and non-pro.  I have never seen a square mag K-43.  I recognize the little button dust caps, I have had speakers like this before.  I would say early K-33.  JMO   d.

    Yes. It's a gift.

    You should probably think about returning it.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  LOL That's hilarious!!

     

    Is that a LUXMAN R-117 I see under the television?  Is that part of the "secret sauce" that makes the La Scala's sing?  I've always wanted one of those!  Beautiful looking speakers.  Keep them!  You win, someone else who was slow, loses.  dee.

  5. I am still trying to set up a separate listening system in a medium sized auxiliary room on my top floor.  I have found almost all I need, except the power amp.  Before I dip my toes in the murky waters of the auction sites,  I thought I'd ask here if anyone has a nice power amp they would like to sell.  I'd consider most anything,  but I think I'm in the area of 100 to 200 watts.  Please let me know what you think, or PM me if you prefer.  Thanks,  dwillie.

    Did you notice that the speaker terminals are reversed on the MiniX? I'm sure you did if you're using it. :) This use to be my amp and I thought it was somewhat strange but it's how they are made.

    Great little amp tho...

     

    Yes, the MiniX is a great little amp. Very happy with it.  Now I'd like to add the UPA-2 if I had room in my office.  d.

  7. I have decided to try and enter the world of electronic crossovers.  This is totally new to me so I'm excited about the prospects.

     

    So I pulled out a set of AL-3 crossovers from one of my pairs of La Scala's, and they are for sale.  I haven't done any modifications or upgrades to these crossovers, they are completely stock as far as I know.  I'm asking $90.00  plus  $30.00  to ship in the lower 48.  You could also pick them up in person, and save the shipping.

     

    PM me with questions.  Thanks, d.

  8. I am completely surprised this amp is still available.  If I only had the room, I would grab this for myself.  Just last week I bought the other Emotiva amp Lyle had for sale.  A100 MiniX.

    It has worked out great for me, running some Klipsch R-14M's as my desk top speakers.  If you don't know Lyle,  he's a great guy to work with.  Buy with confidence.  dwillie
