Emotiva UPA-2 - Pulling Trigger in 24 HRs - Help Me, I'm Scared!

[audio amateur]

Cool dude! What's the ETA? and when are you buying the Revel's?

With that combo, I reckon you could play somes tunes at serious party levels!

The XPA-2 is a great amp. You should not have any problems!

ETA is around next Friday (since apparently neither the UPA-2 nor the XPA-2 are in stock until Tuesday).

The Revels won't be purchased for at least 2 months (since I want to pay cash and not on credit + the decision to upgrade from the UPA-2 to XPA-2 meant using some of the Revel cash)... So I'll have to use some 'other' speakers I have (that I won't mention out of audiophile shame) with the XPA-2 until I get the Revels...

EDIT: Of course this assumes Revel won't release a replacement for the F12 in the next 2 months (which is quite possible since they are 5 years old now)....

I should be able to thoroughly p!ss off all my neighbors with that combo...

Ahhhh Come on Ajani....what speakers are they? It cant be to bad....I'll tell you what...I heard some of the best speakers today that I have ever heard in my life, and you wont believe what they where....I still cant believe what they where....they where some Klipsh speakers..they where the Klipschorn...each speaker had three amps driving them....the bass was driven by a 350 watt mono Jeff Rowland amp, the mids by a 250 watt Jeff Rowland amp and the tweets by a 100 watt Jeff Rowland amp...the electic was on its own dedicated line, going into some power distributor in his rack ....two mono Esoteric DACs, a $6500.00 Esoteric CDP some fancy Accuphase thingy that had all kinds of knobs and a few other pieces of gear that I could not even began to tell you what they where, maybe MrPeabody could tell you...and all the while the guy had his two key boards intergrated into his rig so that he could play along with the music...I mean he interjected himself in the CD that was playing in the CD player....and all that was integrated with his computer....oh and he also integrated all that with his second system up stairs in his family room that had two Marantz Reference mono block amps ($15,000 pair) and preamp driving some 8feet tall Dynaudios.($8,000) the guy had over $100.000 worth of audio gear. My little system is a mere toy compared to what MrPeabody and I saw today...so don't be ashamed of what you have.
