Title: Emotiva XPA-1 monoblocks OR XPA-2 stereo amp
Post by: bearjew on July 07, 2014, 10:37:41 AM

I have a buddy interested in grabbing these, but he would like to listen to them first, and compare them with some other things.  Let me know if anyone has a pair.

I have an XPA-2, but it is packed for the move to MS.

The XPA-1 is their top of the line.  My XPA-200 sounds very good, so if they are better, well...  If your friend is buying them new they have a no questions money back guarantee for 30 days or so.

I just want to know how they compare with like a Sunfire 300 or something.  It sounds like they're solid amps though.
