I ran across and listened to some SS gear from EMOTIVA today. Has anyone heard of this company, used their SS Amps or other gear? What do/did you think about the sound?
i've had emotiva amps before... i would get them for HT due to the nice bass, but not for music, they are not musical at all, the midrange is uninvolving/dull, among many other things
"..That being said, so is my $500.00 Onkyo receiver:)"
I am considering order the pairs od UPA1's for FM radio listening but I have never had gut to do so. I feel safer with Rotel, Parasound and Adcom for non-critical listening.
I have the USP-1 preamp and have been very satisfied. If you have a perfect listening room, and expect the ultimate in the state of the art, go elsewhere. But I have a large, assymmetrical living room, with very high ceilings on one side.
Driving Vandersteens and a big Bag End sub, it does a fine job with both digital and vinyl. Not the last word in sound, but a solid performer.
