Rlwainwright, I'm interested in this amp for the reasons of the quality difference as apposed to the XPA-5. Difference in power supply(larger), quality parts, power reserves equals lesser heat. Larger headroom. Etc...I can deal with the price tag. It's mainly the quality-not quantity of power.
Emotiva XPR-5 power amp?
I'm debating on purchasing an Emotiva XPR-5 5 channel home theater amplifier and I 'm concerned of the reliability issues I've read about in certain threads. Can anyone give they're opinion on the pros and cons of this piece in detail if possible. I am running a Emotiva UMC-200 pre amp with Casta Acoustic model A's all around for home theatre. Very efficient speakers mated with Hidiamond top cords all around. My listening preference is 60/40 home theater/music. Thx in advance.
