No, but I am looking at them. Possibly XPA-5, USP-1 & UMC-1 (if it ever comes out). Also looking at building some Bottlehead tube amps for 2 ch listening, possibly using the XPA-5 for the bass bins and the tubes for the rest.

mark1101 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Look over in HT forum. Those guys use Emotiva and speak highly of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixonrsx Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 The UMC-1 has been out for about a month now, I really want to get the XPA-5 for my RF-7's, RC-7, and RB-61's, I have heard nothing but good things. I was told they might start packaging deals, so Im saving up now and hopefuly can get an XPA-5 and UMC-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told they might start packaging deals, so Im saving up now and hopefuly can get an XPA-5 and UMC-1. Good to know about the possible packaging deal. I also like the processor upgrade deal and the 30 day return policy. The UMC-1 is listed as 'in production' with no BUY button on the page. I'm currently running 2 ch HT so I guess I could wait for the processor, knowing my luck it would be part of a package deal ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhoak Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I drove my La Scalas with an Emotiva UPA-2 for a few months. It was a good combination. I recently sold it in preparation of getting a UPA-7. It'll be driving a pair of DIY Cornscala mains, an Academy center, a pair of Heresy surrounds with the remaining 2 channels driving my IB subwoofer. I can only hope that once running it'll all sound as good as I think it will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Sorry,no umc available now,or for several weeks or more be my guess.I bought the lmc and lpa when they first launched,never a problem and comparable to the Rotel set I had previously @ 1/3 the cost.I hit 115 db in a large room clean and easy.

Arky Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 It'll be driving a pair of DIY Cornscala mains, an Academy center, a pair of Heresy surrounds with the remaining 2 channels driving my IB subwoofer That should sound quite nice.
