Emotiva XPA DR-2 Gen 3 Amp (AB output - input H)


Anyone have any experience regarding Emotiva XPA DR-2 Gen 3 Amp? The output stage is Class AB, but the input is Class H (Power Switching Amp).

Planning to drive my Focal Electra 1008BE.

Thanks.

I tried Emotiva about 6 years ago.  I found the sound very thin and hard sounding.  When I opened the unit up, there was a huge empty chassis with 3 small boards.  Power supply was a joke.  Emotiva is midfi that likes to pretend it is high end, only it is not. Once an Emotiva is out of warranty, they won’t repair it, so be warned.
