XPA-9 Gen3 9 Channel Audiophile Home Theater Power Amplifier

WOW!

I've had several experiences with noise (pup and hum) with different brand new multi-channel amplifiers lately. I've also had delivery delays with other companies. In contrast, with Emotiva, there's no noise and delivery was within 24 hours. And the sound! WOW!

XPA 9 Gen 3

I had an original XPA 5 Gen 1, which I still use. It has been an amazing amp, but I needed more channels. So I upgraded to the XPA 9 Gen 3. This amp is amazing. I am using a Pioneer VSX-LX805 as my preamp. I am still using the the older XPA 5 to power my Zone 2 speakers. I have Whardale Elysian 2 as my F/L. They can dip a little lower, and the XPA 9 has no problems driving them. I can’t recommend Emotiva enough. The value for dollar is unsurpassed. I believe that there are people who have spent way more money on their systems, but I don’t believe that they can sound better than mine. It really is a thing of diminishing returns. Everyone that I sound demo my system to is completely blown away, and the XPA 9 is a big part of it. When you speakers are not starved for clean power it makes a huge difference. If you are looking for more detail and depth to your system, then the XPA series of amps will make you smile when you connect it to your system. Thanks to Dan and the whole Emotiva team for designing these products and making them affordable. I know that affordable is subjective, but if you can afford to get them, you won’t be disappointed.

Outstanding quality and value for a theater amp

Been running Emotiva amps in my theater for 10 years and they've always been rock solid, delivered excellent dynamics with low distortion, and been a great value. Precious few companies if any are making theater gear that fits both value and quality and these folks deliver the goods.
