| Receiver or Preamp athems have bass management using analog inputs. If you dont care about HDMI, its a sweet prepro. | |
| Alternatives to Emotiva UMC-1/audio vs HDMI If I was going to upgrade from a UMC-1, I would spend the $1600-$1800 and get a used Anthem 50. I know you say you don't need HDMI, but you will before to long. Everything is HDMI, and you would be missing a lot of HD audio formats to start with. | |
| Magnepan 3.7 01-07-11: James63I am not in the market for a pannel speaker.... I just like reading the news. I have heard the entire magnepan line at length. I like them but could never get over the iffy build quality. Hopfully the "ribbon" helps reduce delamin... | |
| ML Descent-i vs. JL Audio F113 The ML descent is one of the top "audiophile" subs of all time, but either will easily do the job. | |
| 4.1 HT? Theres A LOT of expensive junk center speakers out there. I've had centers over $1k sound bad. Specially if the sound muffled! Yuck!Its funny, one of my favorite center channels is a Cerwin Vega CLS 6c $109 to your door brand new. Loud, clear voic... | |
| ML Descent-i vs. JL Audio F113 I'd get the Descent i. Great sub! | |
| What's the latest word on the Emotiva UMC-1? Robs findings are like mine. I even agree on the sub comments. SVS is a killer home theater sub. Als good with near full range speakers....Not so good with monitors IMOI have the older SVS Ultra 12/2 which is still there best sub IMO. I was told b... | |
| Anthem AVM 30 or Emotiva UMC-1 I have owed both the Anthem 30, and the UMC 1.The Anthem runs flawless, and sounds great. If you dont care about HDMI, HD audio, and some sweet manual EQ's, keep your Athem...it is awesome.Now, this is going to stir the pot. I feel the UMC 1 has I... | |
| What's the latest word on the Emotiva UMC-1? Rob is correct. I just switched out the Onkyo for the UMC and there was a pretty big difference. Ive had some really nice gear & some budget stuff, this UMC 1 & XPA 5 combo is the real deal. I already put the XPA 5 through tests over this ... | |
| What's the latest word on the Emotiva UMC-1? Just received the UMC 1. I absolutely love it. Features I look for, top rate sound quality & no glitches so far(crossing fingers). As of now I am loving this Emo gear. XPA 5 & UMC 1 is a super deal! | |
| Are my ears just fooling me? I am a pro sax player. Buy some Legacy Audio Fcus 20/20's! Put in some Richard Elliot, Warren Hill, David Sanborn, Gerald Albright, Dave Koz, Kenny G, Boney James, or any oters and just marvel at what you here. Same with trumpets.....Rick Braun so... | |
| does a subwoofer kill stereo sound? Put the sub between the two speakers. Problems solved. | |
| AV Receiver good enough for high end audio? Ive ran aeon i's and scripts on receivers in a 6 channel setup. No issues. If a old yamaha flagship RX-V1 with low power output could do this, I'm sure there are many current receivers that can also. I prefer seperates. Even cheap Emotiva....but r... | |

| Legacy Classic HD I love Legacy speakers. If I could buy another pair of 20/20's I used to have, I would. These speakers just make great music, period. |
