I employ an XPR-5 and have four channels bi-amped into a set of JBL’s with excellent results. I have another Emotiva employed in a den rated at 300wpc feeding a pair of B&W 805’s with excellent results. The amps are dead quiet when needing to be, run cool and never give me any trouble. I have put these up against other amplifiers including ML and Audio Research, dollar for dollar I cannot beat the Emotiva.
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.
