Emotiva amplifiers review/experience?

my xpa-2 has never clicked

Here is an idea. If Bryston has a 20 yr. warranty, are they saying their products won't last that long?

The thread was about the XPA 1 on EMotiva lounge...It being a 'differential amp' with different circuitry. Unfortunately, as much as I wanted the amps, (the warranty means little when you are shipping 90 lb amplifiers) But I have not knowledge to question their construction techniques....But it should have turned up in the check out period or they were following blindly, another company's schematic Otherwise the $1700 holiday price is a 'gift'

I've never listened to any Emotiva, but I have to wonder, at that price how would something like a McCormack DNA-1 compare? These and other reputable amps are available in that range. For me, Longevity isn't the issue, just sheer sound quality. Any comparison with some quality value price pre owned amps.

As I posted earlier in this thread, I was debating the same thing. I did end up picking up a McCormack DNA-1 Rev. A, which cost me several hundred more dollars than a XPA-2, here on Audiogon. Have not received it yet, but will report my findings.
