Emotiva amplifiers review/experience?

Anyone had a chance to try out the Emotiva amplifiers and compare them to some of the more well known brands? How are the sound quality of the amps and how do they compare to other brands? Are they significantly worse or by some slight margin? Please let me know as I'm very interested in their products! Thank you!

I have Emo's modest UPA-2 in my dedicated stereo room and it is a terrific amp. Very dynamic, very detailed, excellent bass control, all the reserve power most would ever need. No hint of "grain" whatsoever through my PSB Image 6Ts. The fact that it was $289 delivered is simply icing on the cake.
I question whether any of the outspoken critics of Emotiva products in here have ever actually spent time auditioning them.

Why would anyone knock off bryston? I mean, if you're going to parrot a big bad power amp design, wouldn't you pick something more worthy of cloning than bryston?
For instance, Krell or Dynaudio or Boulder or Goldmund??
