Hello All! I could use your help. I have a Proceed Amp 5 that I'm going to upgrade to the Emotiva XPA-5 From a 125watts to 200watts then maybe later add the XPA-2 or 1 mono-blocks for the Front.
I know Separates is the way to go. I have a B&K Ref50 Its out dated(no HDMI), not paying that kind of money for a Preamp Again(unless the dollars roll in like that). I use to have the Denon 5805 in shop now(not sure if worth saving). I end up using the Receiver Yamaha RX V863 as a Preamp. Now I'm thinking of getting the Emotiva Preamp Because the price is Great. I'm concern about the Technology now that 3D is out, I'm thinking of getting a 3D TV(another story). The Receivers are always ahead of Technology or you going to pay a high price on the up to date Preamp and or they late to getting into the new tech game. I'm Looking and doing my Research to get the best for my money. The Emotiva Preamp is $699 What to Do? Let me know what you think. Thank you!
