AMC 2100 or Emotiva UPA-200


I have sold my B&K ST1400 amp due to financial situation. Also lost my job due to COVID-19 so my budget is very limited. Right now I have looked at 2 brand, AMC 2100 or a Emotiva UPA-200 amp. This is going to driven by a Rotel RC-970BX preamp. I have a pair of DIY speakers with Dayton Audio drivers. Thanks in advance and happy listening

sorry to hear about your job loss . . . Hope you land on your feet.

as for amp selection, I know nothing about Emotiva, but have owned a few AMC amps as well as many different B&K amp, including the st1400.
It was some time ago but I recall being very happy with the 2100, especially for the $ I paid (~$120 brand new iirc). Not as smooth as the B&K, but very nice to listen to.
